I thought I fixed that issue: http://hub.qgis.org/issues/13291 The MAP param should not be mandatory if there is a .qgs project file in the same directory as the qgis_mapserv.fcgi. Can you verify this? Also, make sure the project is saved from 2.12 Desktop first, or possibly make a new project just for testing. If loading a project file from the same directory as the qgis_mapserv.fcgi without using the MAP param does not work, please add a post to the above noted ticket. Thanks.
