I am trying to set the project location and cordinate system using the 6.4.0svn version for windows but I keep getting the projection error,

'g.proj.exe-p' when I try and start Grass. I have a GIS background and I am frustrated that I can't get it to work. I want to use the projection nad83UTM Zone 14N. I have read through all of the tuturiols and help sheets and looked at the FAQs with no such luck. I really want to use this program to help with my job so if you would help me get started I would greatly appreciate it.

Sincerely,

Ross Benisch

Can you give us some more specific information? Are you using the location wizard? Is this the newest windows binary? Which version of Windows are you using? What exactly is the error message that you get?

you are missing one of the more important dependent libraries.

Make sure that PROJ.4 (http://proj.osgeo.org) is installed
correctly, this usually will be provided by your distro in
package called "proj".

how did you install it? by a package or with make + make install?

if so, you probably have to add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf
and re-run ldconfig (as root). This adds the new library to the
main library search path.

see http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_FAQ#Installation
and other hits for 'ldconfig' on the wiki.

another way is to set the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviro variable.

please reply me as early as possible why because i have to
do one project in grass ......

I hope you will continue to do many more as well!

Is it possible that you use GRASS from OSGeo4W? Please indicate.

The alternative is to use the standalone winGRASS installer from here:
http://grass.osgeo.org/grass64/binary/mswindows/native/
which should include all dependencies.

sorry, the original poster of this thread was on Windows.
So the solution proposed to him/her will be straightforward.

Never mind,
