Map not rendering

[James Net]

Thanks Hester,

Alas that did not fix my problem. My WMS works and has always worked - I'm 
not asking 'bout that.

This renders my map, using a wms:
http://myserver/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/var/www/html/workshop/start3.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=mymap

So why won't this work (with the same .map file), just to test and debug:
http://myserver/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/var/www/html/workshop/start3.map&mode=map

And I HAVE CHANGED my only layer to status DEFAULT!

I have done this before using a .shp file (tiled raster), and it works:
http://myserver/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/var/www/html/workshop/start2.map&mode=map

So what have I done wrong?

James
