[mapserver-users] RE: failed to open map file - MS 6.0 to 6.0.1

[Bistrais, Bob]

Not sure if this helps, but here's the first few lines of the symbol
file- notice that line 6 contains the Style keyword.  Does anything look
out of place with that?

SYMBOL
  NAME 'county-line'
  TYPE ELLIPSE
  POINTS 2 2 END
  FILLED true
  STYLE 4 2 2 4 END
END

Hi Bob,

What does the top 15+- lines of your mapfile look like?
This error is in loadSymbol, do you have a reference to a symbol file? 
is this where the error is coming from? Are you sure you are loading the

correct symbol file?
