[Chameleon] Getting the samples working

[Paul Spencer]

Corey,

this is a mapserver error and is related to your proj.4 installation. 
IIRC, this particular error is because proj cannot find the 'epsg' file. 
  In the chameleon.map file, you'll see some projection objects using 
init='epsg:42304' or something like that.  Make sure that the 'epsg' is 
lower case otherwise proj won't find it's 'init' file.  Also, make sure 
you have an epsg file with that projection defined in it.  If you didn't 
update your epsg file, you can get a new one from http://www.maptools.org/dl

and snag either of the following:

proj4-epsg-with-42xxx-and-esri.zip
proj4-epsg-with-42xxx.zip

Cheers,

Paul
