[GRASS-user] Re: Problem with running Python script in GRASS
Hi everyone, Just a quick status update: Being so new to the whole GRASS scene (and the Open Source scene in the first place) but wanting very much to work with these systems, I installed Linux and had the difficulties I described above. As an answer to the question if anything else happened when I tried to run a Python script using GRASS 6.4: I listed everything that happened, sadly there was no further information that the system gave me. I've now learned a little bit about writing shell scripts and have successfully translated the Python script into the shell format. Now it seems to be running without problems. It's quite a large computation, but right now it's going great in Linux. My other question, though, is how to get newer versions of GRASS. I also considered going over to GRASS 7, it seems to be planned to deal a lot better with Python, but wasn't able to find it on the official GRASS page. Did I just overlook it, or is it available through some other source? I found some sources in the Internet but didn't quite trust them.

Rather than spitting out that strange error message I get the following: child process exited abnormally Do you get any more detail than that? That error indicates that an external command failed. In that situation, it's helpful to know *which* external command failed. Also, it's worth checking whether the script works without the GUI, e.g. typing r.solar help from the command line. -- Glynn Clements gl...@gclements.plus.com ___ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user

Hello, Thanks for the answer. Yeah, that's really strange. Now I've installed Linux on top of Windows and tried running it there. I seem to get a step further. Rather than spitting out that strange error message I get the following: child process exited abnormally And another window pops up, titled dialog0. Nothing more to report other than that... But now that I'm in Linux it should work better, right? Does anybody have a fix or an idea of what it could be? Thanks so much!
