Hi Nils,

there might be a .gislock file on the mapset level you want to work with that
wasn't removed for some reason. Try to find that file and remove it.

In your file browser, got to your grass database and delete the
".gislock" file (you need to show hidden files to see the .gislock or
any file with a preceding dot.

[GRASS-user] unable to open GRASS mapset under Q-GIS 1.6

2011-06-01 Thread Niels Thevs

Dear all,

I want to digitize shapefiles in Q-GIS based on raster layers in a GRASS 
mapset. But, Q-GIS always complains that the mapset canno be opened, 
because it is used by another programme. I tried on several computers, 
but I only was able to open a GRASS mapset under Q-GIS on a computer, 
where I never started GRASS before. How could I solve this problem. I 
work under Windows XP with Q-GIS 1.6.


Regards

Niels
