Hei Nikos, Unfortunately, also under Windows people cannot necessarily choose where to install an addon, so that it ends up in HOME by default should be fine, and it should not be required to install addons in the man program directory system wide... On Win10 with GRASS 7.4.0 from OSGeo4W I can install and run (open the GUI) of r.estimap.recreation without issue, though, when I run the module from CMD it opens both GUI and the python script in a text editor...
Indeed. I was, without thinking too much, opting for system wide installation. I removed all and re-installed the add-on without checking the option to install it system-wide. It works! I'll post in a new clean message, in this thread my next to-fix things. Thank you Stefan ps- Below relared text from previous message:
Nikos:
However, there is still a problem. I am under a Windows machine and have installed GRASS 7.4.4, revision 70829 along with QGIS 2.18.27 (Nightly) via the OSGeo4W installer.
I cannot launch the add-on. The path it is installed to is different than the path GRASS is looking for it. The error message is an "Errno 2". No further hints.
[..]
Is this only my own "problematic" setup? Or is it like that for everyone that will try to use OSGeo4W to install QGIS (Nightly) and GRASS and then fetch those add-ons?
I see it is explained in the manual of `g.extension`, i.e.: "The place where the extensions are installed can be customized by the option prefix. Ensuring that these extensions will be accessible in GRASS GIS is in this case in the responsibility of the user."
Should we add in this manual an example or two on how to set GRASS_ADDON_BASE and a "typical" use case under windows?
