G'day all,

I'm a little new to WMS, but I confess the GetLegendGraphic feature available now in the 5.4 release caught my eye.

So I'm 5.4.0 and using OpenLayers 2.7. However, when I use the URL :

/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/Users/19022662/Sites/marketprices/mapserver/ layers/ ol_countries_wms .map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&STYLES=&SRS=EPSG:4326&

I get the following message (embedded in the tile) :

msWMSLoadGetMapParams(): WMS server error. Invalid format for the EXCEPTION parameter.

If I drop the VERSION (either back to 1.1.1 or just completely loose it, text below in the context of the OL script.

var pol_bnd = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS(
        'Countries',
'http://trade.murdoch.local/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/Users/19022662/Sites/marketprices/mapserver/layers/ol_countries_wms.map&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&STYLES=&SRS=EPSG:4326&;' ,
                {layers: 'countries'}
            );
map.addLayer(pol_bnd);

I get my maps.

I can work with this for now, but is there something I'm missing. I did try fiddling with the reported CRS / SRS changes, but I think I just confused myself - but that would be another topic!

Perhaps along with the mapfile in the documentation, a copy of a full example of a request url would be great.

Some of the mapfile is attached for completeness (it has been sucked across from a CGI Mapserv application):
