MapServer Installation issues {Scanned}

[Ben Crane]

Siki,

That is what I've done:

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserve.exe?map=c:/ms4w/apache/htdocs/test1.map&layer=italy&map=mode

I have a PNG file called italy in the htdocs folder
under ms4w; I have specified the path to the data in
the map file, and ensured the layer name is called
italy. It can find mapserve.exe since I get the empty
query_string response when no query string is added.
The file is in the right place. I have checked the
test1.map file to ensure the layer and path are
looking in the right place.
