Mark,

Not sure which binary you installed. Great instructions can be found here:

Not not forget to install Williams "frameworks" before you run either GRASS installers (62. or 6.3). My advice is trash your old binary, install the frameworks then reinstall.

Good luck,

Kirk

Hello all,

I'm new to GRASS and am having problems getting going. Very grateful if anyone could advise.

Just downloaded GRASS 6.2.1 for MacBook running Mac OS X 10.4.2. Install ok. Got the startup splash screen ok. Looks slightly different to how described at http://wwwamb.bologna.enea.it/ forgrass/tips.htm, but followed instructions here on creating a new Location. I don't have a Georeference file so clicked the 'EPSG codes' button. In the pop up box Name of new location, and Path to new location and Path to EPSG-codes file are ok. I then Browse 'EPSG code number of projection', choose my EPSG code and enter it in the available field. Click 'Define new location' and get the following error popup.

Error: child process exited abnormall...
Details :
child process exited abnormally

    while executing
"exec -- $env(GISBASE)/etc/grass-xterm-wrapper -e $env(GISBASE)/etc/ make_location_epsg.sh $epsg_code $epsgLocation $locpath >@stdout 2>@stderr"
    invoked from within
".optPopup.submit invoke"
    ("uplevel" body line 1)
    invoked from within
"uplevel #0 [list $w invoke]"
    (procedure "tk::ButtonUp" line 23)
    invoked from within
"tk::ButtonUp .optPopup.submit"
    (command bound to event)

Am I missing something? Am I going about startup correctly? Any help greatly appreciated.

Best Wishes

Mark Ruddy
