Hello all,

I'm new to GRASS and am having problems getting going. Very grateful if anyone 
could advise.

Just downloaded GRASS 6.2.1 for MacBook running Mac OS X 10.4.2. Install ok. 
Got the startup splash screen ok. Looks slightly different to how described at 
http://wwwamb.bologna.enea.it/forgrass/tips.htm, but followed instructions here 
on creating a new Location. I don't have a Georeference file so clicked the 
'EPSG codes' button. In the pop up box Name of new location, and Path to new 
location and Path to EPSG-codes file are ok. I then Browse 'EPSG code number of 
projection', choose my EPSG code and enter it in the available field. Click 
'Define new location' and get the following error popup.

Error: child process exited abnormall...
Details : 
child process exited abnormally
child process exited abnormally
    while executing
"exec -- $env(GISBASE)/etc/grass-xterm-wrapper -e 
$env(GISBASE)/etc/make_location_epsg.sh  $epsg_code $epsgLocation $locpath 
>@stdout 2>@stderr"
    invoked from within
".optPopup.submit invoke"
    ("uplevel" body line 1)
    invoked from within
"uplevel #0 [list $w invoke]"
    (procedure "tk::ButtonUp" line 23)
    invoked from within
"tk::ButtonUp .optPopup.submit"
    (command bound to event)

Am I missing something? Am I going about startup correctly? Any help greatly 
appreciated.

Best Wishes

Mark Ruddy
