Hi,
I installed GRASS 7
(WinGRASS-7.0.svn-r57740-711 )on Windows 7 afew days ago and I am experiencing
some problems with using the software. I hope someone in the list can help me
solve some of the problems.
One problem is that I cannot run succesfully python scripts that make use of a
scripted graphical interface
( scripts with no arguments seem to work
fine) and this applies to all scripts, also those found in GRASS 7 website and
the grass
7 scripts folder (although I have to add I only tried to run a couple of
"simple" scripts
with few required arguments):
To give you an example:
When I try to run r.rgb.py through file-> launch script I get following error
message:
Launching script 'C:\GRASS7\GRASS7.svn\scripts\r.rgb.py'...
Exception in thread Thread-24:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\GRASS7\GRASS7.svn\Python27\lib\threading.py",
line 810, in __bootstrap_inner

File "C:\GRASS7\GRASS7.svn\Python27\lib\subprocess.py",
line 948, in _execute_child
startupinfo)
TypeError: environment can only contain strings
When I try the same script through the command line I get this message:
syntax error, unexpected '@', expecting '('
Parse error
ERROR: parse error
ERROR: An error occurred while running r.mapcalc
Nonetheless, when I give an output_prefix (which is optional) the script runs.
Other scripts, for
example, r.out.xyz.py gives "a cannot find output error" or simply does not
produce output
(even when I give a name for the output which in any case is optional and
should not make
any difference unless I am missing something).
The other problem I have is also with the v.db.addcolumn and v.db.dropcolumn
column commands which work when I run them from the command line, but not when
I use a command through python shell
e.g. grass.run_command ("v.db.addcolumn", map="sites", columns="new_column").
These commands also don't work through the Grass GUI, e.g. through Manage
tables. For example when I choose drop selected column, I get a warning message
that the coulumn will be deleted, but in the end it is not removed from the
table.
Does anyone have any idea what might cause these errors and how I could fix the
problem?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
best wishes,
Eleftheria_______________________________________________
