In addition to Kyle's example and info, one of the most likely problems is that 
you're moving from an operating system that is not case-sensitive to one that 
is.  If your mapfile refers to the file XYZZY and on Windows you have a file 
named xyzzy, that file will be found.  On Linux it will not be found, as XYZZY 
and xyzzy are two different filenames.

Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Migrating from Windows to Linux: trouble with 
mapfiles


Hi list,

I'm migrating from windows to linux (ubuntu) but I have some trouble getting a 
map-file to work.
I want to be able to access my server as wms but I'm not sure what to look out 
for when
making a map-file. I'm having trouble with path-names etc... 

Can someone give me an example of a working mapfile for Linux ?

That would be great !

Thanks !

Steven
