Hi Roberto, I can reproduce the problem:
GRASS 6.5.svn (spearfish60):/tmp > v.in.ascii -z input=profilo_30.txt output=name_output format=point fs=" " skip=0 x=1 y=2 z=3 cat=0 Scanning input for column types... Maximum input row length: 35 Maximum number of columns: 10 Minimum number of columns: 4 Importing points... 100% Populating table... dbmi: Protocol error ... No good. GRASS 6.5.svn (spearfish60):/tmp > g.gisenv set=DEBUG=3 GRASS 6.5.svn (spearfish60):/tmp > v.in.ascii -z input=profilo_30.txt output=name_output format=point fs=" " skip=0 x=1 y=2 z=3 cat=0 --o D2/3: Vect_open_new(): name = name_output ... D2/3: load_table_head(): tab = 30, /home/neteler/grassdata/spearfish60/neteler/dbf//name_output.dbf D3/3: Doing SQL command <3> on DBF table...

The file /home/neteler/grassdata/spearfish60/neteler/.tmp/host550/17010.dbf is only of 1 byte size, so corrupted. Using the SQLite driver, I get a more useful error message: DBMI-SQLite driver error: Error in sqlite3_prepare(): table name_output has 11 columns but 10 values were supplied D2/3: G__home home = /home/neteler ERROR: Unable to insert new record: insert into name_output values ( 1, 715514.14, 93561.67, 304.19, '53', null, null, null, null, null) As we see: 5 empty columns are recognized. This is because there are white spaces at the end of the first row, maybe elsewhere, too. So: GRASS is working but the error trapping in the DBF driver isn't that good (the SQLite driver is better here). Solution: polish the data file... Markus PS: the * in some rows will also cause problems.
