#3170: GRASS_BATCH_JOB does not tolerate path with spaces
----------------------------+-------------------------
Reporter: marisn | Owner: grass-dev@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.2.1
Component: Startup | Version: svn-trunk
Keywords: grass.py, init | CPU: Unspecified
Platform: Unspecified |
----------------------------+-------------------------
It is not possible to execute any GRASS_BATCH_JOB script form a path
containing spaces.
{{{
Executing </home/maris/my way/gol_batch.sh>....
/bin/sh: /home/maris/my: No such file or directory
}}}
Quoting or shell escaping also doesn't work due to
get_batch_job_from_env_variable checking file presence with os.access()
Workaround is to change line 1351 of grass.py to read:
{{{
proc = Popen('"' + batch_job + '"', shell=True)
}}}
As quoting of path is a delicate issue and there have been fights in other
parts of GRASS with Popen, I'll better leave for more experienced GRASS
Pythonists to decide if such workaround can be considered safe or more
serious changes are needed.
