[Mapserver-west] problem in map server configuration

[Tim welch]

Sahar,

I think that error is the windows shell telling you it can't find the 
shp2img program in your current directory or in the search path of your 
shell environment.  I don't remember offhand which directory shp2img is 
in but it's wherever you installed the postgis extension I believe (or 
ms4w did).  Try a file search.

Here's a link to info on environment variables and how to change your 
path variable to include the directory that contains shp2img so you can 
run it regardless of where you currently are in the filesystem.

Hope this helps - Tim
