Apache had the instructions to parse phtml files in the httpd.conf file as it is in ms4w (I took most of the parameters from ms4w package. I only took mysql and some starting files from xampp) After further checking I managed to reproduce the error in "controlled" conditions and I found out that it was due to the paths to the data in the mapfile. I used a relative indication, instead I had to use a (semi)absolute one. E.g. Using SHAPEPATH "/ms4w/apps/gru/htdocs/data" and then DATA "/OrthoPhoto/155110.tif" was causing the problem Using SHAPEPATH "/ms4w/apps/gru/htdocs/data" and then again DATA "/ms4w/apps/gru/htdocs/data/OrthoPhoto/155110.tif" solved the problem I do not know the reasons, but at least now is working!
