Hi,

Can you check the source of your red cross image (right mouse button, properties, and then copy the URL) and put the URL into a new browser window? That might give you more information.

Otherwise check the following:
1) can you create a GetMap request to the WMS service in a URL and get a working image back?
2) try some debugging on Mapserver, see eg:

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?DebuggingMapserver 

3) do you need a http proxy to connect to outdoor services?

Best regards,
Bart

Hello,

I try do set up a cascading wmsserver including several wms services but
get no result.
I use the mapbender frontend to load the maps.
There is no error message. Just an empty screen with a red cross in it.
I'm running mapserver 4.6.1.
Is there something wrong with my mapfile?

Thank you in advance,
Roland
