Hi Kamen,
If you are using UTM projected coordinate values, defining your layer SRID as
WGS84 (EPSG:4326) in the map file doesn't seem correct.
You might also try specifying your LayerSRS tag in the OVF file to keep this
explicit.
If this is the problem, then I'm not sure why your points data would work &
polygons don't.
