Tutorial / 500 Internal Server Error

[Pericles S. Nacionales]

My apologies.  I misunderstood you.  I thought you were running the tutorial 
locally and were getting the messages on your machine...  It turns out it's 
my server!  I updated the server last week and the MapServer (actually GDAL) 
dependencies got screwed up.  You should be able to use it again later today. 
(tomorrow for you ;)
