Hi Steve, Thanks for your reply and the tar ball with the shapefiles and map file.
I've tried your map file with the following test script. #!/usr/bin/perl use mapscript; $req = new mapscript::OWSRequest( ); $req->setParameter( "SERVICE", "WMS" ); $req->setParameter( "VERSION", "1.1.0" ); $req->setParameter( "REQUEST", "GetCapabilities" ); $map = new mapscript::mapObj( "minimal_wms.map" ); $map->OWSDispatch( $req ); The error message I get is: Can't call method "OWSDispatch" without a package or object reference at ./minimal_wms.pl line 14. I'm pretty sure that setParameter has not set SERVICE, VERSION OR REQUEST. Any ideas?

For example, there is no projection information defined. I have a minimal WMS config example that I've attached for reference purposes.
