That error message indicates a failure to load the GDAL library at run
time via dlopen(). r.in.gdal is linked against GDAL, and r.info
doesn't need access to the raster data. You will only get the error
from modules which attempt to access the raster data for a linked
map created with r.external.

The code which loads the library attempts to dlopen() each of
following names in turn:

libgdal.1.1.so
gdal.1.0.so
gdal.so.1.0
libgdal.so.1
libgdal.so

If none of the attempts succeed, you get the above error.

The library must be listed in /etc/ld.so.cache (generated by ldconfig)
or in one of the directories in $LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Also, it must have
complete dependency information, and all of its dependencies must be
satisfied.

I guess it's a library naming problem then because what I have inside
ld.so.chache is:

dan...@xadrez:/etc$ sudo ldconfig -p | grep gdal
libgdal1.7.0.so.1 (libc6) = /usr/lib/libgdal1.7.0.so.1
libgdal1.7.0.so (libc6) = /usr/lib/libgdal1.7.0.so
libgdal1.6.0.so.1 (libc6) = /usr/lib/libgdal1.6.0.so.1
dan...@xadrez:/etc$

Also, I don't have any of the lib names mentioned by Glynn in
/usr/lib, as you can see bellow.

dan...@xadrez:/usr/lib$ ls *gdal*
libgdal1.6.0.so.1   libgdal1.7.0.a   libgdal1.7.0.so.1
libgdal1.6.0.so.1.13.3  libgdal1.7.0.so  libgdal1.7.0.so.1.14.2

gdal16plugins:
gdal_GRASS.so  ogr_GRASS.so

gdal17plugins:
gdal_GRASS.so  ogr_GRASS.so


So, by linking libgdal.1.1.so to libgdal1.7.0.so everything came back
to normal... Well, sort of... Now, when I try r.what on the raster I
get...

WARNING: category support for [srtm_21_12] in mapset [PERMANENT] missing
ERROR: Unable to read category file of raster map srtm_21_12 in
   PERMANENT

For the record, this is part of the r.info output of the srtm tile:

Type of Map:  raster   Number of Categories: ??  |
 |   Data Type:CELL   |
 |   Rows: 6001   |

 Does this means that I messed up during compilation?

no, just that a library calls gdal not the module. try:

 no idea, but check that gdalinfo, gdalwarp, gdal_translate, etc still work.

For the record, my GDAL configure line is:  --with-gdal=/usr/bin/gdal-config \
I have GDAL 1.7.2, released 2010/04/23 which I believe I got from the
ubuntu-gis repositories

 However, I can iimport the srtm tiles using r.in.gdal and then raster

 r.in.gdal in order to save disk space...

 GDAL comes with a nifty little app called gdal_vrtmerge:
  swig/python/samples/gdal_vrtmerge.py


I was not aware of the vrtmerge function. Will give that a try, and
hope to identify what is wrong with r.external so I can reduce disk
space and speed things up. However, since I'll be running r.terraflow
on this huge SRTM image, would it be faster to import the image and
then run r.terraflow? Or use r.terraflow on a imaged linked using
r.external?

 if you feed it all your SRTM tiles, it will virtually patch them together,
 and then you can use gdal tools or r.in.gdal on the virtual mosaic.

 this is really great for running with gdal2tiles for an instant
 OpenLayers browser of all the data.
  swig/python/scripts/gdal2tiles.py


 finally, if you put gdal_vrtmerge together with (a functioning..)
 r.external, you hardly have to take up any more disk space than the
 raw data files. Great for massive data caches where duplicates  disk
 space is an issue. If disk I/O is a limiting factor, probably it's faster
 to process too.

try

ldd `which r.what`


and examine if the GDAL library versions are consistent with what you 
think it should be using (`gdalinfo --version` and ldd `which gdalinfo`)

if gdal was upgraded after grass was built, grass may need to be rebuilt
against the new version of gdal..


 However, since I'll be running r.terraflow on this huge SRTM image,

MMetz will suggest you try the new r.watershed too :-)

 would it be faster to import the image and then run r.terraflow?

probably.

[GRASS-user] Unable to load gdal library error

2010-09-22 Thread Daniel Victoria
Hi list,

I compiled Grass 6.5 svn from source in Ubuntu 9.10 and it was
apperently working OK. I then loaded a bunch of srtm tiles using
r.external but, when I tried to patch them with r.patch I recieved the
message: ERROR: Unable to load GDAL library. I also cannot display the
srtm tiles imported using r.external in the Grass Map. However, I can
iimport the srtm tiles using r.in.gdal and then raster display works
fine. My idea is to bring several SRTM tiles in grass using r.external
and then use r.patch. I was hopping not to use r.in.gdal in order to
save disk space...

Why is it that r.in.gdal works but r.external don't?

Thanks
