[GRASS-user] g.extension error installing install r.hazard.flood

RichTC · May 17, 2013, 9:07am

Hi,

I'm getting the following error on using g.extension to install
r.hazard.flood:

g.extension.py extension=r.hazard.flood
svnurl=http://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass-addons/grass6
Traceback (most recent call last):

I've checked Nabble forum comments re installing extensions but cannot find
a solution.

What would be the best method to install? Is there a manual way of
installing an extension?

Cheers,
Richard

that file comes from the grass-doc package. is it installed?
(search for which package has the file: `dpkg -S grass_logo.png`
if installed; `apt-file search grass_logo.png` if not installed)

What would be the best method to install? Is there a manual
way of installing an extension?

at least three other ways, the first is try g.extension[.sh] from
the grass command line (it's a separate module from the python
version), the second is to just make a ~/bin directory and put
the script in there (may need to log out and back it to get
~/bin in your path automatically).
if you have all your personal scripts in a directory somewhere,
you can set and export the GRASS_ADDON_PATH to that pathname
before starting grass and the script will then be in the GRASS
path.
and finally, if you have the full grass source code installed
you can run `make MODULE_TOPDIR=/path/to/src/topdir`.

where did you get the packages from? UbuntuGIS? the solution when
working with after-market packages and having trouble is to
completely remove/purge the old from the system before trying to
install another version. (it's a moving target, apparently the
previous package was not sync'd to the new build rules from
DebianGIS, but the new one was, and the packager has not put
a Conflicts: in the debian/control file)

A few comments/observations:

1. r.hazard.flood.py appears in addons directory (/home/user/.grass6/addons)
after running the g.extension command from the GRASS terminal, but gives the
following error:
GRASS 6.4.3 (Bangkok_UTM47):~ > g.extension extension=r.hazard.flood
...
/user-notebook/11269.0/dist.i686/docs/html/r.hazard.flood.py.html

No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1
ERROR: Installation failed, sorry. Please check above error messages.

2. Trying to install r.fuzzy.logic from the GRASS terminal also appears to
install (e.g., can see r.fuzzy.logic executable (in
/home/user/.grass6/addons/bin) but errors are given:
GRASS 6.4.3 (Bangkok_UTM47):~ > g.extension extension=r.fuzzy.logic
executable in
...
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644

No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1
ERROR: Installation failed, sorry. Please check above error messages.

3. How would I run r.fuzzy.logic?
Output from the GRASS terminal:
GRASS 6.4.3 (Bangkok_UTM47):~ > r.fuzzy.logic
r.fuzzy.logic: command not found

Output from Layer Manager > Command console:
r.fuzzy.logic
[Errno 2] No such file or directory

Cheers,
Richard

I resolved running r.fuzzy.logic by setting the GRASS_ADDON_PATH

1. Set in terminal before starting GRASS;

$ GRASS_ADDON_PATH=/home/rcooper/.grass6/addons/bin
export GRASS_ADDON_PATH

2. r.fuzzy.logic can now be run from the GRASS Layer Manager via the Command
Console:
r.fuzzy.logic

Hi all,

I’m also interested in using r.hazard.flood, but i’m using grass7 svn on Ubuntu 12.04LTS

I dont think this addon exists for grass 7?

thanks,

Vishal

Maybe I was too quick to say this was resolved.

I just can't seem to start r.fuzzy.logic

Before starting GRASS I set the GRASS_ADDON_PATH as follows:

$export =/home/user/.grass6/addons (also tried
/home/user/.grass6/addons/bin)
export GRASS_ADDON_PATH
echo $GRASS_ADDON_PATH
/home/user/.grass6/addons/bin

This doesn't seem to be reflected in /home/user/.grass.bashrc ?

After starting GRASS, running r.fuzzy.logic doesn't start the module form
the Layer Manager

When I attempt to run from the GRASS terminal by inserting the path to the
executable I get the error:

Unable to fetch interface description for command 'r.fuzzy.logic'.

Details: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

Try to set up GRASS_ADDON_PATH variable

What am I not doing correctly with the GRASS_ADDON_PATH?

Some observations that might help identify if my system is in error?

I've added the following to .grass.bashrc

GRASS_ADDON_PATH=/home/rcooper/.grass6/addons/bin
export GRASS_ADDON_PATH

However, I can only run the r.fuzzy.logic extension if I also set the
GRASS_ADDON_PATH in a terminal and run the run grass from the same terminal
(I cannot run the extension if starting GRASS from the menu)?

I've added the following to .grass.bashrc

GRASS_ADDON_PATH=/home/rcooper/.grass6/addons/bin
export GRASS_ADDON_PATH

that is fine, just to note that the bin/ and script/ dirs
were created there due to the crash of the extension manager
GUI, usually they are removed after install of the executable
to ~/.grass6/addons/. but it's all ok, if you manually set
GRASS_ADDON_PATH grass will respect whatever you choose to do.
it can also be multiple paths if you like, separated by ":".

However, I can only run the r.fuzzy.logic extension if I
also set the GRASS_ADDON_PATH in a terminal and run the run
grass from the same terminal
(I cannot run the extension if starting GRASS from the
menu)?

GRASS_ADDON_PATH needs to be set before the grass startup script
runs, so the menu misses that, setting it in the terminal only
affects the terminal itself and things launched from it. I set
my GRASS_ADDON_PATH in ~/.bashrc so it's always available.

~/.grass.bashrc is only read by grass, e.g. I use it to reset
the GRASS> terminal prompt and GRASS_HTML_BROWSER to my
preferences. Unfortunately (in grass6 at least) GRASS_ADDON_PATH
doesn't work from there. Maybe you are thinking of $MAPSET/.bashrc
which grass does create.

When I attempt to run from the GRASS terminal by
inserting the path to the executable I get the error:

Unable to fetch interface description for command
'r.fuzzy.logic'.

that indicates the program is not in the $PATH, which it needs
to be for scripts. (the scripts run the g.parser module, which
then reruns the script by name, if it can't find the program you
get the above error)

Thanks Markus,

r.hazard.flood does work now in G7 for me.

Now I’m trying to understand the results for my study area - please do let me know if there is any more information about this module or its application, than the grass webpage for it:

http://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass-addons/grass6/raster/r.hazard.flood/description.html

FYI, i am trying to use grass modules for urban hydrology in general.

Best,
Vishal
