This error can be caused by a failure to parse the mapfile or to draw 
some layer. You could have a random shapefile or shape in a shapefile 
that is bad and only causes heart-burn when you try to draw the bad 
object. Then the draw command will fail and return undefined, later when 
you try to saveImage on the variable the is undefined it throws this error.
