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... (see include/sqlp.h)
D2/3: load_table(): tab = 30

D2/3: save_table 27
D2/3: save_table 28

D2/3: Write table to tempfile:

D2/3: Write 108 rows
dbmi: Protocol error
D3/3: Vect_build(): build = 4
Building topology for vector map <name_output>
...

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.
