Hello,

I am a newbei about mapservers. I have setup mapserv-3-6-0 and also =
installed 3-5 demo and eventually got them to work together, displaying =
the maps successfully.I did these through implementing rpms rather than =
compling. Upon this, I have been handed map layers of our neighbourhoodi =
so that I "insert" them into the mapserver. It consists of 20 layers and =
for each layer there are proper files of .dbf, .shp, .shx extensions. =
However there are no mapfiles. I have read all of mapfile reference and =
worked on the mapfile of the 3-5 demo. I wrote one for the nighbour maps =
but it gave me the error when pressed "Initialize". I have arranged the =
demo_init.html and demo.html accordingly beforehand. The error is:

loadHashTable(): Unknown identifier

Anybody have an idea. My mapfile is the following:

Erenkoy is the name of neighbourhood, sokak-ilceler and other stuff =
looking unfamiliar for you, are the Turkish for streets-towns etc.
I had to keep TEMPLATE, FOOTER and HEADER for my layer same as the =
demo's since I also have no idea of making my own templates, footers and =
headers.=20
Overall, I am in a bottleneck, stuck up.

Please help me:)

Thanks in advance.....

Have a nice day
