Antonio,

couple of issues:

1. in your maplab.xml file, your tmp_img_path is /tmp/ and your 
tmp_web_img_path is /ms_tmp/ ... this means that images will be saved in 
/tmp/ but the application will try to get them from 
http://<myserver>/ms_tmp/.  I would recommend that you create an ms_tmp 
directory in /tmp, change tmp_img_path to /tmp/ms_tmp and make a symlink 
from /var/www/html/ms_tmp/ to /tmp/ms_tmp/.

2. the fatal error and warning are related I think to the same thing. 
In the tutorial.map file, there are settings for

   IMAGEPATH "/tmp/ms_tmp/"
   IMAGEURL "/ms_tmp/"

which means that it is trying to save web images in /tmp/ms_tmp :)

This might fix the problem, but if not, next we reconfigure mapserver 
with --enable-debug and look in /var/log/httpd/error_log after a fatal 
error and try to figure out the details from the error_log.

Cheers,

Paul
