[Mapserver-users] New Install Problem

[Adam Dershewitz]

I currently have a functioning Windows XP box running Apache 2.0.42 with PHP
4.3.2.  I installed the MapServer windows files as per the instructions and
verified that the mapserv.exe file is getting run as CGI and not downloaded
as a document.  When I try to run the binary through a browser it comes up
with a 500 Internal Error which I think by the documentation is correct.
When I run it from the command line I get "This script can only be used to
decode form results and should be initiated as a CGI process via a httpd
server."  Which I also think is correct.

Then I downloaded the demo and installed the files as per the instructions.
Made the modifications to all the required files.  Then I went to run the
demo_init.html file.  When I click on initialize nothing happens.

I have both spaces and periods in the path to my webroot for Apache.  Could
that be causing problems?

I have a really cool application of this package and would love to get it
running.

Thanks,

Adam
