Strange Projection Issue in MapServer

Hello Everyone,

I am having a strange problem with mapserver and reprojecting on the fly. I
have some imagery in mapserver that has been processed but is still kept in
its native projection 26915, and when I use the

PROJECTION
 "init=epsg:4326"
END

in the header (above the paths of the shape files)

and I use

PROJECTION
 "init=epsg:26915"
END

in each layer (above the path of each shape file), I get another version of
the imagery over on the other side of the world in addition to the normal
version of the imagery that appears in the correct place.

I have attached a png of what the imagery that appears in the incorrect
place looks like. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Robert
Fawcett, David

Robert,

Can you post the text of your map file and the version of MapServer that
you are using?  

I also didn't see the .png attachment come through.  

David.
