[mapserver-users] issue when upgrading layer from 5.x to 6.0

[Mark Volz]

Hello,

Thank you for all your replies on helping me figure out why a mapfile was working in 5.x and not 6.x.  It turns out that the problem was with an included symbol.sym file.  I realized that I am not even using this file on this particular map so I removed the reference.  So now everything is working, and this particular map will now run a little faster.  As Astrid mentioned I will take a closer look at the migration guide when I move other maps over that depend on the included symbol file.

Thanks again

Mark Volz
