Thanks. All I have seen is .grassrc6 but that must have been from Lorenzo's build. To get a similar environment I just created a grass directory under /Users/ryan and then entered /Users/ryan/ grass into the GIS Data Directory field. I no longer get the error I asked about.

Another user recommended creating my own .grassrc6 file which has apparently worked for other users, but it seems that my way works as well (both methods are probably doing the same thing). I downloaded the Spearfish dataset and all appears good as new.

The .grassrc6 file is (it should be) created automatically the first time you run GRASS. I'm not sure, but it may require a successful location/mapset selection/creation - ie you get the main GRASS command prompt.

There is no need to create .grassrc6 before running GRASS. Or to edit it after creation, GRASS' g.gisenv maintains it.
