[GRASS-user] v.digit ERROR: Cannot open toolbox:

GRASS GRASS user

But when I start v.digit with the following commands I get the following error
message:

ERROR: Cannot open toolbox:

What does it mean exactly? What can be the problem?

The error means that it couldn't execute the Tcl/Tk script
$GISBASE/etc/v.digit/toolbox.tcl, either because the file isn't
present, or an error occurred while executing the file.

And how can I solve this problem. The file is present. But soemhow it cannot
be executed:

GRASS 6.2.0beta3 (Lux):~ > $GISBASE/etc/v.digit/toolbox.tcl
/usr/local/grass-6.2.0beta3/etc/v.digit/toolbox.tcl: line 1: syntax error near
unexpected token `('
/usr/local/grass-6.2.0beta3/etc/v.digit/toolbox.tcl: line 1: `lappend
auto_path $env(GISBASE)/bwidget'

So I guess it is a bug in GRASS? Can it be solved? If yes how?

You can't run it as a standalone script. It has to be read into the
custom Tcl interpreter in v.digit.

Try running it via wish, e.g.:

  wish $GISBASE/etc/v.digit/toolbox.tcl

You should get the error:

  Error in startup script: invalid command name "c_tool_centre"

If you get some other error, it's a problem with the script, otherwise
it's a problem with v.digit's use of Tcl/Tk.
