thanks guys, after I set the imageurl as http://localhost/ms_tmp, MapServer
works well again. URL should be a real URL, that's it.

I am trying now to install MapServer with IIS 6 on Windows 2003, the same
configurations as on WinXP do not work on Windows 2003 any more, and I can
not even open the mapserver initial page.

I've searched in our list achieves, somebody says that there may be some
problems with IIS 6, but I still can not figure out where the problem is.

could anyone give me clues?

thanks for any tips.
