the open save msg box can be avoided by disallowing execute access from that
directory in your webserver.

Subject: [mapserver-users] trying to test my install with the sample data



Hey all. Thanx to all for your much appreciated help and patience. I believe
that I have gotten the third win32 binary ( ms36gif_gdal_pg_wms.zip
<http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/win32bin/ms363gif_gdal_wms.zip> ) loaded
properly using IIS on my desktop winXP machine, and I am trying to test it
with the sample data. Using the directions offered at MapServer 3.5 Demo
<http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc36/demo_readme.html> Instructions, I have
edited the demo_init.html and demo.map files as instructed with no problem.
Here is where I have hit a bump. To make sure that my web server and
mapserver cgi program are running properly, I typed
http://localhost/scripts/mapserv.exe <http://localhost/scripts/mapserv.exe>
into my internet explorer window. The tutorial says I should get the message
- no query information to decode. Query_string set, but empty. I got the
message as - No query information to decode. QUERY_STRING not set. Any idea
what I have done wrong? Also, I am when I run mapserv.exe, I get that
annoying open/save message box that seems to be preventing my app from
working properly. Please help. The end seems so close yet so far away...
