[GRASS-dev] database driver errors from wish tcltk gui on mac

[Ken Nussear]

Hi

I'm on Mac OSX 10.5.6 using Grass 6.4 RC3. I'm using the WISH TclTk  
GUI using ActiveTcl 8.5 from ActiveState.

I'm having driver errors when accessing vector attribute information  
via the GUI, but not from the command line

For example- using spearfish
Adding a vector to the map
Selected buglist from the list of vectors
Clicked the "Show Attribute Table" button in the lower panel of the  
GRASS GIS Manager window

Got this error in the output

db.select table=bugsites database=/Users/knussear/Documents/Research/ 
GIS/grassdata/spearfish60/PERMANENT/dbf/ driver=dbf

Bad file descriptor: dup r
dbmi: Protocol error
Unable to start driver <dbf>


I copied the same line and pasted it in the terminal

db.select table=bugsites database=/Users/knussear/Documents/Research/ 
GIS/grassdata/spearfish60/PERMANENT/dbf/ driver=dbf
cat|str1
1|Beetle site

9|Beetle site
10|Beetle site
11|Beetle site
12|Beetle site
13|Beetle site

..... and more rows

Can anyone help?

Thanks
