GRASS_INFO_ERROR(13271,1): Cannot open old vector placept2@PERMANENT on level 2

is that file indeed an old grass vector file?
then v.convert

what does v.info say?

Has this thread been answered somewhere? I have te same problem.

This is what v.info says (testvectdigit is a testfile made with v.digit):

v.convert doesn't seem to work?

v.convert input=testvectdigit output=testvectdigit2
ERROR: Input vector was not found. -> but the file does exist (g.list vect gives the file and I can also visualise it with d.vect)???

Ellen,

Please write exactly what your problem is, what error message you get. I
can't find any error message in your post.

Regarding mseibel's original post - his problem was:

GRASS_INFO_ERROR(13271,1): Cannot open old vector placept2@PERMANENT
on level 2

That's why I asked him to try v.convert on his file, assuming his file could be indeed an *old* (i.e. from Grass 5.4 or older) Grass vector file.

You wrote:

ERROR: Input vector was not found. -> but the file does exist (g.list
vect gives the file and I can also visualise it with d.vect)???

And why are you running v.convert on your file? v.convert is only for importing *old* Grass vector files into *new* Grass vector files (i.e. in Grass 5.7 or newer).
