Kevin,
try to test this with shp2img and see if that works. If you
do get an image output as expected, then you probably have a permissions problem
with the internet user. What platform / server are you working
with?
I am currently experiencing this problem with Windows 2000
Server with IIS5. I'm trying to point to a .csv file and I can't get my mapfile
to work, but ogrinfo and shp2img command line work fine.
Then I set up a little php file to take mapserver out of
the equation entirely and just used php and odbc to connect to the data and it
fails. So - it's a permissions problem, but I still haven't figured out how to
fix it.
What is the error message that you're
getting?

Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] virtual spatial data fails
I am trying to add a
virtual spatial data layer to my project and failing! I have created my
DSN, and tested it successfully with ogrinfo. I then added the following
to my mapfile:
LAYER
NAME "Permits"
GROUP "Permits"
CONNECTION "<OGRVRTDataSource>
<OGRVRTLayer name='permitsummary'>
<SrcDataSource>ODBC:@Data_txt</SrcDataSource>
<SrcLayer>permitsummary.csv</SrcLayer>
<GeometryField encoding='PointFromColumns' x='X_COORD' y='Y_COORD' />
<GeometryType>wkbPoint</GeometryType>
</OGRVRTLayer>
</OGRVRTDataSource>"
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
DATA "permitsummary"
METADATA
"wms_srs" "88888"
"wms_title" "Permit Points"
END
