Ben, 

Post the text from your map file and the actual error message that you
are receiving.  This should give people more to go on.

I've downloaded that one. Does it contain the GD and regex lib? What
about individual image dlls for png, etc? I have tried running the
tutorial through the installed MapServer but I get a mapLoad() error
stating that the "map" mode isn't activated (wrong word I know)- I went
back to the Mapserver website to find out how to sort it out. It can
find the *.map file (I have ensured it is in the correct place) so it's
not the standard error stating the map file couldn't be found.

But if this windows installer has everything to make mapserver work and
I don't require anything else then I'll head back to the drawing board
and have another go, must be a mistake I've made somewhere along the
line

Ben
