[mapserver-users] Newbie - installed Mapserver - where next?

[Asle Benoni]

Hi,
I am a newbie and have installed Mapserver 5.2.1 on OS X Server 10.5.   
I have been able to display maps that I exported from QGIS and though   
some problems are displaying the maps.

Now the next step is to get a framework around the maps and I have   
tried MapScript but I don´t have PHP CGI on the server :-(
I also have tried GeoServer which I really don´t understand because I   
have downloaded the GeoServer.app and when I run it I have no idea  
how  to configure it since all the docs talk about using the "war"  
file but  I can´t find anything about using the GeoServer.app. I also  
am trying  OpenLayers with a little success.

I would be glad for any tips as to where I should go from here. I  
have  installed postgreSQL and POSTGIS and my goal is to write mapdata  
to  postgreSQL and display maps for that source. I also want to be  
able to  enter data into the maps i.ex. click a point in the map and  
enter  location data for that coordinate that is written to database  
so it is  displayed later.

I am glad for any ideas for a newbie :-)
