...hmm. Well, there are a number routes to go down that could help you
narrow down your problem:
 
1) Your reference image is a PNG. Looks like you are on Linux / Unix, so,
did you compile with PNG support... are your maps (run as PNGs) showing up?
You could comment out the reference part of your mapfile and see if your
main map shows up... if it does, then you can be relatively sure PNG support
is working. You must NOT have GIF support since that generated an error...
 
2) I have no idea if this will help, but you might try adding some color
defs to your reference object -
 
REFERENCE
  STATUS ON
  IMAGE "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Wausau\graphics\reference.png"
  SIZE 150 150
  EXTENT 253388.816486 170076.852191 298268.816481 214956.852186
  COLOR -1 -1 -1
  OUTLINECOLOR 255 0 0
END
 
3) Try it on CGI MapServer.

I am using lat lon for the rest of the map. Here is the code from the top of
the map file,
 
NAME WORK
STATUS ON
SIZE 500 250
EXTENT -129 22 -60 55
UNITS DD
SHAPEPATH "./"
IMAGECOLOR 255 255 255
INTERLACE ON
FONTSET "FONT.LST"
 
Does any of this help?

Aaron, it sounds like your EXTENT for your reference image may not match
your EXTENT for your overall map file. Those look like lat/long coordinates,
is that what you are using for the rest of your map?

When I draw a reference map, I get an image but my background image is not
there. Below is the code I used
 
 
>From map file

REFERENCE
 EXTENT -125.481 23.17332 -66.5282 51.7963
 IMAGE /usr/home/gui-ads/html/map/framework/ref.png
 STATUS on
 size 124 74
END
 
Php script
 
$image_ref=$map->drawReferenceMap();
$image_url_ref=$image_ref->saveWebImage(MS_PNG,1,1,0);
 
If I try using a gif like to doc tells, I get a mapscript error.
Thanks for any help
 
Aaron
