Hi Jose Miguel,

two alternatives:

normally, you won't be the superuser (root) of the system. Then, you should set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable in your user environment including the lib directory of GRASS. For example, if you use bash, just edit .bashrc in your home dir and add:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:<grass_install _dir>/lib

where <grass_install_dir> is where you have installed GRASS. Then save it and do: source .bashrc

The another approach requires root privileges. Just add <grass_install _dir>/lib to the file /etc/ld.so.conf (in Mandriva; in other distributions should be something similar), save it, and run "ldconfig".

Hope this works,

Dear all,

The following happens when trying to create a new location on GRASS running on a cluster.

1. I access to the server and when I try to create a location with lat long, GRASS never asks me about the datum and ellipsoid as it normally does in my station GRASS.

2. After creating the location it says "But the PROJECTION information files were not created! You must run g.setproj successfully before projection software will work".

3. When I press crtl-C to exit the location creation menu, it says that I exited abnormally. Howeverm this is exactly what I do successfully in my station version.

4. I never have the chance to run g.setproj because when I try to access my location, GRASS does not launch and returns an error: "Error setting region (Problem with g.region?): child process exited abnormally)"

5. A way of dealing with this is to start GRASS directly on a dummy location, like spearfish60. Then changing the location with g.proj -c. The problem is that, again, GRASS replies:

GRASS 6.3.0 > g.proj -c epsg=4326 location=LatLong
g.proj: error while loading shared libraries: libproj.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

6. At this point I have no clue. Thanks for your help!
Jose Miguel
