Hi,
 
I have never experienced just this behaviour, but I have seen that for example 
MapLab applications do not trigger the new map file with just pushing the 
Refresh button. But if I check/uncheck a layer or zoom in/out or something then 
the new map file is used.  Could this be the case for you as well?
 
If you still need to restart Apache each time to see the effect of editing the 
mapfile then I believe that the mapfile itself of some program object created 
from that must be cached somewhere in your system.  Then it might be due to 
your application rather than Mapserver.  Have you tried what happens if you 
send requests to your Mapserver-cgi and the edited mapfile through browser, for 
example?
 
Regards,

Aihe: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Mapserver requires restart of apache


Hi to all!
I have noticed that each time I modify the .map file, I need to restart apache 
to see any changes..
Any idea of which can be the matter?

Thanks for all
Luca
