CONNECTION "/path/to/shape/file/on/mapserver/cpws.shp"
DATA "SELECT * FROM cpws LEFT JOIN

and I suppose that it should affect how a layer looks like.
I was asking about the JOIN object of the mapfile, that accord

try the same but with another shapefile to another table in the same
database, and I receive a segmentation fault of the Apache!
Here follows the code from the map-file:
- this works just fine -
