I am running MS4.2 on WinXP over Tomcat.

I am using a very simple Map file that creates a
single layer (see below).

When mode=browse it works fine, but when I use
mode=img it either returns a long string of unicode
characters, or it returns the following exception:

java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String
index out of range: 0
        at java.lang.String.charAt(String.java:444)
        at

Is there a know problem, or am I doing something
terribly wrong?

Thanks,
Reuven.
