[mapserver-users] Question: loadWeb(): Unknown identifier. Parsing error near (ms_tmp):(line 36)

[Steve Lime]

In MapServer 6.0, the GD driver can only produce 8-bit output so your output
format is invalid. Try commenting it out and see what happens. I believe you
can leave "IMAGETYPE png" in place and you'll get AGG-based, 8-bit output.
Should look much nicer.
