Hi Andreas,
I had a similar problem (same error message) with postgis data, using
"v.out.ogr".
Don't know why I changed the position of the first quote from
... dsn='PG:host=localhost dbname=nrw2005 user=postgres' ...
to
... 'dsn=PG:host=localhost dbname=nrw2005 user=postgres' ...
But then it worked.
Regards,
Hajo

I am trying to use postgis datasets read-only using v.external. However,

am having problems. Here is my command:
v.external dsn="PG:host=localhost dbname=uster user=an password=mypw"
layer=natur.naturnahe_gaerten output=gaerten
And here is my error message:
Sorry, <dbname> is not a valid parameter
Sorry, <user> is not a valid parameter
Sorry, <password> is not a valid parameter
I expected to run into problems with schemas, maybe, but not with the
login. What am I doing wrong in the dsn parameters?
For some reason the "quotes" are being removed from your command and so
the PG:
settings are being treated as command line parameters to v.external. As
v.external doesn't have those options, you get the error message from the
GRASS
command line parser.
yes, this seems to be the case. Any ideas on why the quotes are removed? I
compiled against a nightly version of gdal, somewhere between 1.4.3 and
1.5. I can try with 1.5 again.
