Problem with dynamically generated mapfile

I tried, but an error is generated in parsing the new line.

My mapfile yet contains an EXTENT line, as described here:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/mapfile/mapObj. This line is
part of the dynamical changes, but I'm sure is compiled correctly.


Sorry for being unclear. In your mapfile you should add a new metadata in the web object:
MAP
EXTENT your,extent,comma,separated
[...snip...]
WEB
IMAGEPATH "/tmp/ms_tmp/"
IMAGEURL "/ms_tmp/"
METADATA
"original_extent" "your,extent,comma,separated"
END
[...snip...]
END
[...snip...]
END


If you are using php/mapscript to dynamically generate the mapfile, you can simply add this in your script:
$oMap->setMetadata("original_extent", "your,extent,comma,separated");

PS: Unrelated to your problem, you may also try to use the readonly mapsession mode. You may gain some performance. To do it, Just remove the lines:
$this->moMapSession = new MapSession_RW;
$this->moMapSession->setTempDir( getSessionSavePath());
