This also can happen if you made a location, set GRASS to point at that location, then deleted the location from the OS.
Check in your ~/.grassrc6 file to see if it is pointing to a location and or mapset that doesn't exist. If so, you can set it to a valid location/mapset or simply delete the location and mapset lines (make sure that you get rid of any empty lines too.)
