Hi,

The immediate reason for the error  is that you do not have a referred template 
file in your system
TEMPLATE 'fooOnlyForWMSGetFeatureInfo'

For correcting this error you must change TEMPLATE to refer to something that 
exists. The template file must contain at least the magic string 'mapserver 
template' in the first line of the template 
http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/template.html
However, I have a feeling that this will not be enough for making your 
application to launch. If this happens, please tell a bit more about your 
application, how it works and what happens when you press the launch button.  
And absolutely add
CONFIG "MS_ERRORFILE" "c:\good_errorfile_path_for_you.txt" and
DEBUG 5 into your mapfile.  This way you will get much valuable information 
into the errorfile. Comment out the DEBUG line once everything works perfectly 
for you.

The PyQgis MapServer Export plugin should really be fixed. At least it should 
write the "wms_enable_request" metadata item. Now it does not and no mapfile 
created with QGis will work for WMS without editing. Plugin is also using the 
deprecated TRANSPARENCY and I  would rather see PROJECTION blocks to use 
"init=epsg:xxxx" but that  may not be so important.  I am not sure it the 
plugin writes always SYMBOLSET "/wwwroot/symbols/symbols.sty" and uses SYMBOL 
"circle" in some type of classes but if it does it can also lead to not working 
mapfiles.  Is there anything else to complain? I can make a QGis feature 
request once I have collected the most important things to correct and checked 
that they have not been corrected already.

Hello everyone,

I am trying to create a new map and it is causing me some output issues.

When I click my launch button to start the application it comes up with this 
message

Content-type: text/html msReturnPage(): Web application error. Malformed 
template name (fooOnlyForWMSGetFeatureInfo).

I have attached my mapfile and I do apologize for the length of it.

I'm not sure what's wrong in the map file! Any help would be greatly 
appreciated!

Thanks,
Mark
