Hmm, switching to the SQLite driver should help. Did you use db.connect driver=sqlite database="$GISDBASE/$LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET/sqlite/" or another command / other options. Note that you should use $GISDBASE/$LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET literally and not replace these variables with their content. What does db.connect -p say after switching to the SQLite dirver? What are the error messages after switching to the SQLite dirver? Markus M > > The data files are USGS coverages created originally in the '90s.
