error accessing postgis

Mapserver [v4.6.1] returns an error when I try to access a postgis [1.0.4]
database.  (Postgis is installed with postgresql 8.1.0).  I assume my
mapfile is incorrect, but I'm not sure what the mistake is.

 

Here is the error:

 

msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'sdata'. 
prepare_database(): Query error. Error executing POSTGIS DECLARE (the actual
query) statement: 'DECLARE mycursor BINARY CURSOR FOR SELECT
asbinary(force_collection(force_2d(iarea)),'NDR'),OID::text from sdata WHERE
iarea && setSRID('BOX3D(-180 -135,180 135)'::BOX3D,
find_srid('','sdata','iarea') )' 

Postgresql reports the error as 'ERROR: column "oid" does not exist '

 

The relevant portion of my mapfile:

 

LAYER

     NAME "sdata"

     CONNECTIONTYPE POSTGIS

     CONNECTION "dbname=gtest user=postgres host=localhost"

     DATA "iarea from sdata"

     TYPE line

     STATUS default

     CLASS

          NAME "State Line"

          STYLE

               SYMBOL "BigLine"

               SIZE 2

               COLOR 255 0 0

          END

     END

END

 

The definition of the table "sdata":
