Hi Eric,
The GetCapabilities request would be used to get information about the
WMS map, in order to decide what parameters to give to the
OpenLayers.Layer.WMS object.
In your (static) case, you don't need it in your code. Don't provide
SERVICE nor VERSION (they are set by default), nor REQUEST, as it
should be "GetMap" but this is managed by OpenLayers.Layer.WMS
automatically.
Instead, provide FORMAT ("image/png" or whatever is defined in your
map file), LAYERS (value "all" or comma-separated list of layers).
The GetCapabilities request, however, would help you to check the
effective map parameters :
http://www.catastroloscabos.gob.mx/cgi-bin/mapserv.fcgi?map=/home/juribe/webcatastro/catastro.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetCapabilities
Seems you forgot to define the PROJECTION in your map file for each
layer. If it's the same than map's, just copy-paste them to make it
clear for MapServer.
Explained here : http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html
Good luck,
Jeff
