Hi Sara,

you should change the following part in your index.phtml file, so add the 
2 lines starting with $this:

class SampleApp extends Chameleon
{
    function SampleApp()
    {
      parent::Chameleon();
      $this->moMapSession = new MapSession_RW;
      $this->moMapSession->setTempDir( getSessionSavePath());
    }

You can leave out the CWCInitializeMap() function. For clarity I have 
attached a changed index.phtml file which should work for you.

Paul: shouldn't we update the sample app on www.maptools.org so no more 
people will run into these problems? Perhaps we can put the Geodan sample 
there instead of the old sample application?

Best regards,
Bart

PS: it is a good habit to always CC the list, so other people with similar 
problems in the future can search the archives.
