[MS4W-Users] Getting blank tiles in google maps

Hi all, I am new to MapServer.


I have downloaded and setup MS4W and was able to overlay the example Bath
and other map data on google maps.


I then created my own .map file using QGIS and supplied my data but the
served tiles are completely blank(transparant or white when I select RGB).


My data set is .GML and I also tried converting it to .SHP format. I have
checked that my setup is ok by doing is on two different computers.


When I use shp2img.exe then it renders the layers properly.

/c:\> shp2img.exe -m hampshire.map -o hampshire.png -s 2048 2048/


I am using this URL scheme:

/http://localhost:8088/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=C:/ms4w/apps/gmap/htdocs/hampshire.map
&layers=HampshireAreas&mode=tile&tilemode=gmap&tile=[x]+[y]+[z]/


I have attached all the relevant files. (2 sets, one is .SHP and the other
is .GML, both cases I get transparent empty tiles)


*Can anyone please help me identify the reason why the generated tiles are
transparent and how I can fix it.*
