[GRASS-user] GRASS won't start

Hi there,

Is anybody else having this problem? I’ve got it on two computers. I’m running GRASS 6.4 on OpenSUSE and when I try to start GRASS, absolutely nothing happens. Nothing at all, no error message. I tried uninstalling and then reinstalling GRASS, didn’t help. Then I tried installing GRASS 7, which did work, but for some reason it kept on trying to connect to a database that I have on my computer and don’t want to run at the moment… After deinstalling GRASS 7 and reinstalling GRASS 6.4 I get this very strange behavior:

lee@pc19453:~> grass
bash: /usr/bin/grass: No such file or directory
lee@pc19453:~> grass64
lee@pc19453:~>

It happens every time. grass64 doesn’t seem like it even tries to load, the command line pops up instantly after I hit enter.

Thanks a lot! Yeah, I know it’s really strange…
Daniel

Hello,
it is not a known issue.

Please start GRASS in debug mode and post output here.
Command is: bash -x /usr/bin/grass64

Also provide information from where You installed Your GRASS and exact
package version number.

Hi there,

Sadly I wasn’t able to test things until just now. The problem is on two computers. I started up my laptop and before I started GRASS I checked the repository to see if any updates were available. GRASS was du for an update, which I don’t think it was the last time I tried it. After updating, GRASS started just fine, but I had to tell it where my GRASS database was again. As soon as I get to my work computer tomorrow I will report back if the problem is gone from that one as well.

Thanks for the quick response and have a nice rest of your Sunday :slight_smile:
Daniel

Alright, another update: After updating GRASS on my work computer, it worked fine again too. Strange, it was a good couple of days where it just wasn’t working. Can’t explain it. I’m very, very happy to have my GIS back! Thanks for the help with this strange problem…

Hi,

sorry I missed your email. It was a problem with the GRASS packaging,
because we had to apply several changes to the spec file. Now it should
work again.
