[mapserver-users] White screen after editing mapfile

[Burgholzer,Robert]

I'm sorry, I got the impression from your original posting that you were having trouble when adding a second shapefile to your map, thus I assumed your problem was with adding a second LAYER, or with the second shapefile.   Now, it seems as if you are suggesting that simply editing the file, and making NO changes will cause a crash?

Perhaps you are running into a problem with Unix and Windows file types?  

Please, more info,

What system did you create your "original" file on?
What system are you performing your edits on?

Hello,

thanks for your response. I attatched the mapfile. 

But I don´t think somethings wrong with the mapfile. Everything runs fine, then I delete the mapfile from the server and copy the same mapfile to the server again. Everything is identical, but the mapserver crashes.
