Hi Jeff, I came to this old post once again and I tried the above mentioned. shp2img still produces an image which is blank or whatever the color of the mapfile is defined. On the other hand I checked the EXTENT once again and it was wrong so I changed to the appropriate one (EXTENT 17.00 33.00 32.00 42.00) which I checked on QGIS in WGS84 so it should be fine. If STATUS is set to default or On there's no difference. I also changed TYPE to line and polygon just to be sure but nothing. My shapefile is a polygon with boundaries. Why wouldn't it appear on the browser? Thanks again and I'm sorry for writing about it so late. Stefanos Στις 7:15 μ.μ.

Once your layers look find there in the generated map image then move to your application - if using MapServer CGI (mode=map), a blank map often means you are not specifically telling MapServer to turn on layers; try adding &LAYERS=all - or setting each of your layer's STATUS values to DEFAULT might work (but this can cause lots of trouble later, so this is not often recommended) -jeff -- Jeff McKenna MapServer Consulting and Training Services http://www.gatewaygeomatics.com/ On 2/10/2014, 11:15 AM, Stefanos Anastasiou wrote: > Hello!! > > I'am having my mapfile place in /home/mapdata folder whereas I also keep > a couple of other mapfiles too. > I'm trying to load it in the following form on the > browser: http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/home/mapdata/pelop.map&mode=map > > and all I get is a blank page.
