Hi list,

how can I remove a layer, created with v.external, where the DB connection isn’t valid anymore?

g.remove and g.mremove –f don’t work:

g.remove vect=stateborder_ext

REMOVE [stateborder_ext]

ERROR 1: PQconnectdb failed.

FATAL: password authentication failed for user “mapserver”

ERROR: Cannot open OGR data source 'PG:host=10.3.1.12 dbname=mygisdb

user=mapserver password=mapserver’

Thx,

Christian
