I install the grass-gis 7 beta 3. But when I try to launch i receive
the message
---------------------------------------------
nul=open <os.devnull, 'w'>
IOerror: [Errno 2] No such file or directory : 'nul'
--------------------------------------------------------
Also for the grass-gis 7 beta 2 and beta 1 I receive the same error
message
> -------------------------------------------------------- [[BR]]
> nul=open <os.devnull, 'w'> [[BR]]
> IOerror: [Errno 2] No such file or directory : 'nul' [[BR]]
> -------------------------------------------------------- [[BR]]
Apparently, it's possible for the service implementing the null device
('nul' pseudo-file) to be stopped or to malfunction.
The status can be checked via the control panel. Start the Device Manager
(Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Device Manager), select View > Show
hidden devices, then under Non-Plug and Play Drivers, there should be an
entry for "Null".
Actually, I also experienced this bug on a win7 64bit notebook. I tried
winGRASS beta3, RC1 earlier and today (23rd Feb) the stable 7.0.0 version.
The 'Null' entry in Plug and Play Drivers and values in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Null were also
checked and everything looked ok.
