 I am  pretty sure that this has been pointed out before.  MapServer does not use  the ESRI .prj files.  
  
 You  simply need to define projection blocks in your mapfile for both your output  projection and for the input projection of each data layer.  To do this of  course, you will need to know what projection your data is in.

Hi,

 Can you put a    projection file in a map. Then put regular shp files the layers?  How can    you do that?  I am using mapserver 4 on a lunix machine.  I put a    projection file in my map file but I only have one of them.  The rest are    regular shp files. I cant seem to get the layers show up with my projection    file.
Thanks,
Albert
