[mapserver-users] OSM data rendering using Mapserver

[Ali_]

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for your response. I am grateful to you. Cygwin worked. 
I am getting this error
loadLabel(): Unknown identifier. Parsing error near (MAXSCALEDENOM):(line
48)
Is that something to do with the Mapserver versions?

Ali.
