* summary: WxGUI fails to display vector attribute table => WxGUI fails
to display vector attribute table if default db
connection is missing
Comment:
Hamish, You are right about db.connect issue. I just started to look into
code and also decided to test db.connect output:
{{{
(Tue Mar 09 16:06:12 2010)
db.connect -p
driver:
database:
schema:
group:
(Tue Mar 09 16:06:12 2010) Command finished (0 sec)
}}}
First step to reproduce issue is "Create new mapset in wxgui startup
screen".
When I created new mapset in wxgui startup screen, it's directroy had only
"WIND" file and ".tmp" folder. No "VAR" files. Missing "VAR" file in new
mapsets is discussed in #7
Still wxgui should NOT fail if default DB connection is missing (or is
incorrect etc.), as only selected vector map connection matters.
When I copy vector map from PERMANENT to newMapset with g.copy, there is
message, that ~"Default db connection is created" and also afterwards
there is an "VAR" file in mapset. Then displaying attribute data for
current mapset or PERMANENT works just fine.
