[GRASS-user] Projection values

Hi all,
I tried to make the projection by "Projection values" in GRASS 6.4 - Linux but after putting the description for the location I received error:
ERROR: region for current mapset is not set
                r. "g.region"

ERROR: "error: "/usr/lib/grass64/etc/set_data" exited abnormally. Press <enter> to continue"

Please help me what should I do to run it correctly?

I used GRASS 6.4.0RC5 running in Linux Mandriva

6.4.0rc5 shipped with a bug which causes that when defining new
projections. Please try upgrading to the new 6.4.0rc6 release.
There is no good workaround for the bug besides upgrading.
