<pre wrap="">Hi,
I'm getting the following error on attempting to import MapInfo files. I've
tried the two files below from different sources. Both files open and
display correctly in QGIS.
v.in.ogr
dsn=/home/user/DATASOURCES/mapinfo_cannri/cmbs_mapinfo/cmbs_mapinfo/Nswcatch01.tab
layer=Nswcatch01.tab output=Nswcatch01
ERROR: Layer <Nswcatch01.tab> not available
v.in.ogr
dsn=/user/GIS_guide/DATASOURCES/world_geocomm_mapinfo/world_11/country_col.TAB
layer=country_col.TAB output=country_col
ERROR: Layer <country_col.TAB> not available
</pre>

I think you do not want to specify the full name of the *.TAB file
both as the dsn and layer. If you add the layer parameter, then dsn
should refer to a directory. If you give the full name of the TAB
file as the dsn, then don't add the layer parameter.<br>
