Jerry,
I agree that the error isn't helpful and stumbled myself over it several
times.
It is buried in the core of GRASS:
cd grass63/lib/gis/
grep 'is outside region' *
get_row.c: G_warning(_("[%s in %s] - read request for row %d is
outside region"),
get_row.c: G_warning(_("[%s in %s] - read request for row %d is
outside region"),
so I don't know how to link it to v.drape. At least, I have expanded the
manual page to
########## snip ##########
ERROR MESSAGES
If the following error message appears
WARNING: [demname in mapset] - read request for row -1 is outside region
ERROR: problem reading raster cell file
it indicates that the vector map is spatially larger than the raster
map. To avoid this problem, the vector map needs to be clipped to the
raster map extent, for example:
g.region rast=demname
v.in.region clipbox
v.overlay ain=clipbox bin=vectmap out=vectmap_clipped op=and
v.drape vectmap_clipped out=vectdrape rast=demname
Then /v.drape/ should perform the draping.
########## snip ##########
Hopefully helpful,
Markus
