[maplab-users] another maplab-2.0rc3 problem

I'm having a similar type problem with the preview using Windows NT,
MapScript 3.6, and MapLab2.0 rc3.  The preview window seems to open OK, but
the map face is blank.  If I open a web page with the .map file or open the
.map file in an older version of MapLab everything is fine.

Thanks,
st

After install and last email, I created a simple mapfile, saved it, 
then went to preview and got:

Warning: MapServer Error in loadReferenceMap(): No image defined for 
the reference map. in
/home/httpd/html/maplab-2.0rc3/htdocs/common/wrapper/map_session.php 
on line 274

Fatal error: Failed to open map file

on line 274

is the problem the "//" in the path above? If so, you need to deal 
with that in the code. Sometimes you require the trailing slash 
sometimes not. The user should not have to worry about this, just 
make the code robust.

I often do not want a legend and in fact set the reference object to 
status off. I went back and deleted the reference object from the 
mapfile and the preview worked. So I don't get why that is because I 
didn't change anything else!!!! (ie: why did the 2nd error go away?)
