Hi,<br>
<br>
I wanted to export a point vector to a .shp file. This works except for<br>
a column that does not get exported. I have tried it in grass70 and grass65 (in Ubuntu)<br>
but both without success. The attribute column that is not exported was created<br>
in the attribute table view and populated with a sqlite-command. The column<br>
is of type DOUBLE and stores the value 0.5 for all points.<br>
<br>
Here the error (in grass65, but the same in grass70) :<br>
v.out.ogr -e --overwrite input=barriers@PERMANENT type=point dsn=/path/to/output<br>
Warning 1: Field Riv of width 1000 truncated to 255.<br>
Warning 1: Field Site of width 1000 truncated to 255.<br>
Warning 1: Field type of width 1000 truncated to 255.<br>
ERROR 6: Failed to add field named 'passability'<br>
Exporting 20 geometries...<br>
<br>
</blockquote></div></div>
Maybe the name "passability" is too long? The dbf component of a shapefile is limited to column names of 10 characters.<br>

What is the reason for that and how can it be solved?<br>

Best regards,<br>
