[mapserver-users] WMS Request for a single point?

[Robert Hicks]

Great, thanks for all the help everyone! I tried that command:
http://10.0.11.54:8008/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/ms_ogc_workshop/client/wms/reference.map&mode=map&map_layer[0]=FEATURE+POINTS+270000+696000+END+END&WIDTH=1000&HEIGHT=500
(I had to change a few things), and I get this error:

"msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Unable to initialize image.
msPrepareImage(): General error message. Image dimensions not
specified. msCalculateScale(): General error message. Invalid image
width or height. "

Any ideas?
