Hello,

I am Katja and I am new to mapserver and somehow fighting with the 
installation.

I try to install it under Linux. All required packages are installed, I run
./configure --with-pdf --with-gdal --with-geos --with-png --with-jpeg 
--with-gif --with-wbmp --with-swf --with-svg 
--with-postgis=/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_config --with-ogr 
--with-shapefile --with-wfsclient --with-wcs --with-sos 
--with-proj=/usr/local/proj-4.6.0 --with-threads 
--with-httpd=/usr/sbin/httpd --with-geos=/usr/local/bin/geos-config 
--with-wms

After that I get the output:
MapServer is now configured for

I do "make" and copy mapserv to /var/www/cgi-bin/ ...

Now my problem:
/var/www/cgi-bin/mapserv -v
gives the following output:
MapServer version 5.0.2 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=WBMP 
OUTPUT=SVG SUPPORTS=FREETYPE INPUT=TIFF INPUT=EPPL7 INPUT=JPEG 
INPUT=POSTGIS INPUT=SHAPEFILE

just as I had not configured mapserver with the options I used.

mapserver-config lookes fine - I can see the options I used with configure.

What went wrong?

Thanks a lot and regards!
Katja
