Chmod 755 on the "home" and "erik" folders did the trick.
Thanks!

Emne: Re: [MapServer-users] "msLoadMap(): Unable to access file..." for
Mapserver 8.4.0
Hi Eric,
you can trust the message 'unable to access....' Have you set the permissions
for the whole path starting with 'home' and triple checked the path- and
filename spellings?
The users home might be a non optimal place, try another directory like
/mapfiles.
Not your problem, but I won't use rewrite rules with mapserver 8, you easily
can stet mapfile aliases in the mapserver.conf without any dependencies on the
apache version or restarting the webserver.
