[mapserver-users] getSymbol (): Symbol definition error.

[Smith, Michael ERDC-CRREL-NH]

CARTOLINE symbol type has been dropped from MapServer 6. You'll need to
remove any symbol that is CARTOLINE.

The GD driver is no longer used for PNG output. I'd remove the
OUTPUTFORMAT block entirely and just use the built in definition for PNG.
