[ms4w-users] Projection Objects

Hey Jeff,

The error 'no options found in init file..' usually means mapserver 
cannot find the epsg code in the "init" file, which is located in 
/ms4w/proj/nad/epsg.  In that file you will find the projection 
definition for 42304 (search for "42304").  So is it possible that you 
did not specify it correctly?  Open the tutorial.map in a text editor 
and look at the projection object that u just added, it should appear as:

    PROJECTION
      "init=epsg:42304"
    END

Also, as you're testing the components that you've downloaded 
(Chameleon, MapLab..) please send any questions regarding these 
components to their associated user lists.  Your specific question 
should really be posed to the MapLab list 
(http://lists.maptools.org/mailman/listinfo/maplab-users).

hope this helps.

jeff
