[UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Generated scale

[James Net]

I'm viewing a satellite map of a large area and my mapserver generated scale 
seems a little wrong. Viewing a whole state (of Australia) mapserver 
generates a scale ranging from 0 --->  0.001km (see attached). And when I 
zoom-in the scale bar goes to 0 ---> 0. Any ideas? I thought my scale should 
be like 1 ---> 1000km. Am I not reading it right? Am I missing or have I 
stuffed up a map file config option / setting?

My Map file:
MAP
  NAME        WEX
  IMAGETYPE   jpeg
  EXTENT      140 -41 150 -33
  SIZE        600 600
  DEBUG       ON
  TRANSPARENT ON
  IMAGECOLOR  239 242 248 # The background Color.

     TEMPLATE    "template.html"
     IMAGEPATH   "/var/web/tmp/"
     IMAGEURL    "/tmp/"
     METADATA
        wms_title   "WEX"
        wms_srs     "EPSG:4283"
        wms_onlineresource   "http://myserver/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=wex.map";
     END
     MAXSCALE 50.0
     MINSCALE 0.1
  END

  PROJECTION
     "init=epsg:4283"
  END

     COLOR 255 255 255
     UNITS kilometers
     INTERVALS   1
     TRANSPARENT TRUE
     STATUS      ON
  END

...
LAYER stuff

END # EOF


Thanks in advance!
