I don’t know what really fails because I have never used Mapserver this way.
However, the error message seems to be true.
When using Mapserver trough WMS the same message comes with a request
http://hip.latuviitta.org/cgi-bin/mapserv?service=wms&version=1.3.0&request=getcapabilities
If map parameter is used with an invalid value the error message is different
http://hip.latuviitta.org/cgi-bin/mapserv?service=wms&version=1.3.0&request=getcapabilities&map=foo
Have a look at the code and think if the name of your mapfile really goes into
[map].

Hi,
I tried to create a simple map application whit zoom and pan capabilities,
following the instructions contained in the book "Beginning MapServer".
I created a map file (secondo.map), an initialization file (secondo_i.html) and
a template file (secondo.html).
When I lunch the command
http://localhost/secondo_i.html
the browser shows this error message:
msCGILoadMap(): Web application error. CGI variable "map" is not set.
I work with Mapserver 6.4.1-2 and OS: Ubuntu 14.04
Text contained in initialization file:
<html>
<head><title>MapServer Seconda mappa</title></head>
<body>
<form method=POST action="/cgi-bin/mapserv">
<input type="submit" value="Clicca qui">
<input type="hidden" name="program" value="/cgi-bin/mapserv"
<input type="hidden" name= "map" value =
"/home/enrico/mapserverdata/secondo.map">
<input type="hidden" name="zoomsize" size=2 value=2>
<input type="hidden" name="layers" value="Regioni Fiumi Province">
</form>
</body>
</html>
