Hi,  

This is mostly guessing, but could it be that there is some conflict due to 
that you are using epsg:4326 in your request but mapfile extents are in some 
other projection?  What happens if you change the SRS in the request to suit 
the map level projection?              Of course it must be added to wms_srs 
list first.

Given all this, I first tried to render this with a web browser by writing 
directly my request :
http://acquisitiontest/CGI/bin/mapserv.exe?request=GetMap&map=C:/temp/bch/Shell.map&request=GetMap&layers=Vector&srs=EPSG:4326&version=1.1.1&styles=
By not giving the extent nor width and height, I am expecting to take the full 
bounding box of the map file as width and height. I am already doing this for 
raster layers so I won't be surprised to make it work for shape files.

But, unfortunately, the result  remains empty whatever I try.

So, I remembered to use the shp2img to make a render and there I have a correct 
result.
>From what I remember to have read on the mailing list mapserv.exe and 
>shp2img.exe are equivalent. So am I surprised to get different results.

I am sorry but I can not give any source shape files as their content are 
confidential but if anyone think it could be helpful I can try to take one and 
remove all but one lines in it.

Thank you in advance for any idea to make the thing go on !!!
