Warning: Failed to open map file

[Shashi Gireddy]

I installed ms4w on my windows xp (professional & home both)
machienes. I had a simple program to display a map, It was working
fine on Linux, When I tested on windows it is giving me following
error.

Warning: [MapServer Error]: msLoadMap(): (C:\ms4w
mp\ms_tmp\Newcounty.map) in C:\ms4w\apps\maps\map1.php on line 15

Warning: Failed to open map file C:\ms4w mp\ms_tmp\Newcounty.map in
C:\ms4w\apps\maps\map1.php on line 15

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in
C:\ms4w\apps\maps\map1.php on line 160


I thought it was a windows security issue, I granted "full control"
permission to almost every available user on the advanced tab. It
seems it is not a security issue.
can any body help me.

here is the map file

MAP
    NAME FIRSTMAP
    SIZE 500 500
    STATUS ON
    SYMBOLSET "c:\ms\symbols\symbols35.sym"
    EXTENT -98.54 29.26 -96.35 27.15
    UNITS MILES
    SHAPEPATH "c:\ms\data\"
        WEB
        IMAGEPATH "C:\ms4w\tmp\ms_tmp"
        IMAGEURL "http://localhost/ms_tmp/"
    END
END



and here is a part of the code


dl('php_mapscript_44.dll');

$test = $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["test"];
 //$map_path="C:\ms4w\tmp\ms_tmp\";
 //   $map_file="Newcounty.map";
    //$map = ms_newMapObj($map_path.$map_file);
$map = ms_newMapObj("C:\ms4w\tmp\ms_tmp\Newcounty.map");

      // $map_path="/home/census/WWW/ms/map_files/";
   // $map_file="Newcounty.map";
    //$map = ms_newMapObj($map_path.$map_file);

        $map->{name} = 'Test';
    $map->{status} = MS_ON;

    $map->{interlace} = MS_OFF;
    $map->{transparent} = MS_OFF;

....


$layer = ms_newLayerObj($map);
        $layer->set(name,"Surface_Type");
        $layer->set(type,MS_LAYER_LINE);
        $layer->set(status,MS_ON);
        $layer->set(data,"Surface_Type");
        $layer->set(tolerance,10);
        $layer->set(classitem,"SURFACETYP");
        $layer->set(transparency, 90);
        $layer->set(labelitem,"HWY");
            $prm="SURFACETYP";

            $pop_undr_1500 = ms_newClassObj($layer);
            $pop_undr_1500->set(status, MS_ON);
            $pop_undr_1500->set(name, "51");
            $pop_undr_1500->setexpression('([SURFACETYP]==51)');
                // create style
                $style = ms_newStyleObj($pop_undr_1500);
                $style->color->setRGB(255, 185, 215);
                $style->outlinecolor->setRGB(0, 0, 0);
