Dear List, I am running GRASS 6.5 (2012) on Snow Leopard. I want to access a Mapset, have GRASS run analyses, and save new maps on an external HD. I use this external HD to back up the same computer I am running the GRASS. When I direct GRASS to browse the 'grassdata' folder on the external HD and start GUI from a Mapset (Permanent or others) I get this error:
/Volumes/MacBook Pro Backup/Backups.backupdb/Bulent Arikan’s MacBook Pro/2011-10-25-113623/Ari Bub/Users/bulentarikan/grassdata/TR_WGS84_37N/PERMANENT/.gislock: Permission denied ERROR: /Applications/GRASS_6.5/GRASS-6.5.app/Contents/MacOS/etc/lock: Unable to properly access /Volumes/MacBook Pro Backup/Backups.backupdb/Bulent Arikan’s MacBook Pro/2011-10-25-113623/Ari Bub/Users/bulentarikan/grassdata/TR_WGS84_37N/PERMANENT/.gislock Please notify system personel. logout [Process completed] I am not running concurrent sessions and I know that GIS Lock is a feature but is there a way to get around this, so that I can save time by directly having some very large-size maps stored in external HD?
