Denis, both examples work for me with the latest php_mapscript.

Are you using the Gmap mapfile to run them (and edit the scripts to point to
it)? It is possible that they contain some assumptions that make them work only
with that mapfile.

I'll close as WORKSFORME. Please reopen with more details about your config if
you were using the Gmap mapfile when you got those errors.

Daniel,

I am useing gmap mapfile to test php.

What PHP version are you using?  I have tried with PHP 4 and I got no errors but
warnings about MS_PNG not being defined?

[dmorissette]

The MS_PNG notices were caused by stray args that should not have been there.
The saveWebImage() method doesn't take any arguments any more since the
outputFormat stuff was added (in 4.0 I think). I have fixed that in
test_draw_legend_icon.phtml in CVS, but I don't think that could have been
related to your problem. 

[dmorissette]

I have tested this with both php 4.3.6 and 5.1.5 and get the same results.

[dnadeau@…]

I had php 4 mixed up with php 5 on my machine and I needed to clean up.  This is
probably why it did not compiled correctly.  

[dmorissette]

The problem was cliflicting GD versions between mapserver/php_mapscript and the
PHP bundled GD. Bug 1879 has been created to try to prevent that situation in
the future.
