I am trying to use MapServer to display a raster image (png). That's it for now at least. However, I am having no luck. When I visit my map by using a link like:
*http://myurl.com/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/path/to/file.map&layer=base&mode=map
I get the following error:
msLoadMap(): Regular expression error. MS_DEFAULT_MAPFILE_PATTERN validation failed. msEvalRegex(): Regular expression error. String failed expression test.
When I use shp2img:
shp2img -m file.map -o myimage.png -all_debug 5
I get no errors, but the image that's produced is completely gray except for the upper right quadrant which is white. This is nothing like my raster image.
My mapfile:
MAP
SHAPEPATH "/home/name/public_html/dir"
IMAGETYPE PNG
EXTENT -180 -90 180 90
SIZE 800 600
IMAGECOLOR 155 155 155
UNITS DD
STATUS ON
DEBUG ON
LAYER
NAME "base"
DATA "/home/name/public_html/dir/image.png"
STATUS ON
TYPE RASTER
END
END
What am I doing wrong?
