Thanks a lot! But I think my problem lies in the fact that the mapserver is not able to access the map file. When I tried to open the map file in the browser(IE) by typing its absolute path it is displaying that Accessing the resource C:\.. has been disallowed. Previously I was able to open the map file in the browser. How to solve this problem? Suman

Does the mapfile can be read by your web application user ? Alan On June 29, 2009 11:13:04 am Suman Chatterjee wrote: > Hi all, > > I have just started using mapserver.

I require to solve > it urgently. > Since you are using MS4W you can download the "MapServer Itasca Demo Application" add-on application from the MS4W downloads page [1], extract it at your drive root, restart Apache, and look on localhost for a new link to the application - no configuration needed. Note: use MS4W 3.0 beta3 with this Itasca application.
