Hello everyone

I managed to solve the issue. I figured out that maybe the problem is 
that the apache user (under which mapserver runs as CGI) can't read my 
epsg file. I got suspicious since my epsg file is actually a symlink to 
the real file (which is in /usr/share/proj/nad/epsg). I deleted the 
symlink and created a hardlink instead and presto! the error went away!

ln /usr/share/proj/nad/epsg /usr/share/proj/epsg

Thanks for the help, guys
Regards,
Adrian
