Hi Robert,
If you are using MS4W, you likely already followed the steps at
https://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html#apache-setenvif and added the
SetEnvIf to the bottom of your local file /ms4w/Apache/conf/httpd.conf
Don't forget to also restart Apache after this change, as Administrator
(executing /ms4w/apache-restart.bat )
Another hint that I follow always on Windows is to make sure that your
path to your mapfile contains no spaces (otherwise you will have grief
sometimes, and turn your hair grey).
Hope those hints help.

Hi Stefan
Is your mapserver on Windows? Once you copy mapserv.exe change its name to the
name of your mapfile and then edit httpd.conf and set up Apache redirects for
each one
Eg. Suppose you had a mapfile map1.map and you copied mapserv.exe to map1.exe,
then you could put the following line into httpd.conf:
SetEnvIf Request_URI "/cgi-bin/map1?" MS_MAPFILE=/path_to/map1.map
you don't need copies of the binary, just create apache rewrite rules like
RewriteRule ^/wms1?$ /cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/path_to/map1.map
RewriteRule ^/wms2?$ /cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/path_to/map2.map
RewriteRule ^/wms3?$ /cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/path_to/map3.map
now you can request your wms with
http://../cgi-bin/wms1?SERVICE=WMS&;...

Subject: [mapserver-users] Copy mapserv.exe problem
Hey!
I had already formulated an entry recently in which I asked for the error
message "msCGILoadMap (): Web application error. CGI variable" map "is not
set." asked.
Now I think I have found a more accurate diagnosis. For our project we need
several mapserv.exe, because we present different maps (Mapfiles) to
different users. Every time I come up with a new copy of the mapserv.exe
this error message follows. Does anyone know this problem? Does something
have to be considered when copying this file? Thank you very much!
