WMS error after upgrade to 4.4

[Yewondwossen Assefa]

Do you have an example of a getmap URL returing the exception and maybe
your map definition ?

There has been some work done in the wms code before the 4.4  release so
that mapserver would be  OGC compliant (so more parameter tesing and
exception generating has been added) and this may explain the problems
your are having.

Later,
