Hi everyone,
I'ma new mapserver user and I'm trying with some friends to put on an 
application based on postgis-mapserver.
Actually we're dealing with wms connection to Nasa Jpl dataset.
The problem is that nothing appears in the map and the tiles are empty, 
so we think we made some mistake in writing the mapfile.

Can you help us?

Thanks a lot

Matteo Rossi
