[GRASS-user] startup with non-interactive batch jobs... failed

Dear grass user

I'm a beginner of grass and linux...

I tried startup with non-interactive batch jobs.
I don't understand why (1) succeeded and (2) failed...
Is the reason linux permissin ?

(1) starup with -text
...succeeded

LOCATION: newLocation_a____________ (enter list for a list of locations)
MAPSET: PERMANENT________________ (or mapsets within a location)
DATABASE: /home/shimada/mygis_________________________________________________
_
           AFTER COMPLETING ALL ANSWERS, HIT <ESC><ENTER> TO CONTINUE
                            (OR <Ctrl-C> TO CANCEL)

(2) startup with non-interactive batch jobs

...failed.

home$ LOCATION=/home/shimada/mygis/newLocation_a/PERMANENT
home$ GISDBASE=/home/shimada/mygis
home$ LOCATION_NAME=newLocation_a
home$ MAPSET=PERMANENT
home$ grass64 -
Cleaning up temporary files ...
Starting GRASS ...
GISDBASE, LOCATION_NAME and MAPSET variables not set properly.
Interactive startup needed.

This is unnecessary

home$ GISDBASE=/home/shimada/mygis
home$ LOCATION_NAME=newLocation_a
home$ MAPSET=PERMANENT

You need to 'export' each of these variables. i.e.
home$ export GISDBASE=/home/shimada/mygis
and so on for the others.

You probably want to look at the wiki page on running GRASS commands
without starting it explicitly:
http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/Working_with_GRASS_without_starting_it_explicitly

home$ grass64 -

Dear Micha and all

You need to 'export' each of these variables. i.e.
home$ export GISDBASE=/home/shimada/mygis
and so on for the others.
