Ann,

Things that may be different now:
  o The way paths to data files are resolved is different in subtle ways.
    Try an absolute path, or relative to SHAPEPATH or relative to the map.

  o World file handling may be slightly different.  Does gdalinfo report
    proper georeferencing for the file in question?  Georeferencing that
    makes sense relative to the map area?

  o Offsite handling is different,  you may need OFFSITE r g b to get proper
    offsite handling.

Good luck,
