So an improved comment might be "Required when referencing map file(s) by path".

    Ok, then that is expected. If you pass a map with a file path then
    (and assuming you haven't set MS_MAP_NO_PATH) you should see the
    error message Jeff referenced.

            There are 2 scenarios when you won't get the error Jeff
            references when MS_MAP_PATTERN is not set in the config file:

             1. If using an map alias (set in the map section of the
                config file) - these can only be read from the config file.
             2. If MS_MAP_PATTERN is set in the underlying environment -
                that is, by the web server. Things are set up to fall
                back to the environment variables (we're using GDAL
                functionality) if they exist for any of the MS* variables.

            Do either of these apply?


        Yep, I'm using aliases in the MAP section.

                (reading too quickly in all the excitement over a new MS

                Regarding MS_MAP_PATTERN, I'm doing a WMS GetMap request.
