<p>There seems to be an issue with the python scripts in fwtools 2.3.0 and 2.3.1<br>
<br>
Example:<br>
<br>
<br>
C:\Program Files\FWTools2.3.1>gdal_polygonize<br>
Traceback (most recent call last):<br>
File "C:\PROGRA~1\FWTOOL~1.1\bin\gdal_polygonize.py", line 34, in <module><br>
import gdal, ogr, osr<br>
File "C:\PROGRA~1\FWTOOL~1.1\pymod\gdal.py", line 191, in <module><br>
import _gdal<br>
ImportError: No module named _gdal<br>
<br>
C:\Program Files\FWTools2.3.1><br>
<br>
<br>
Not complaining, just grateful the toolset is there for Windows. <br>

<tt>Hi,<br>
<br>
As far as the message "ERROR 1: Too much data inside one element. File <br>
probably corrupted" is concerned, I think that FWTools-2.3.0 showed a <br>
temporary regression where the maximum size for a geometry was limited to <br>
100,000 bytes to avoid reading corrupted/hostile files. This limit was proved <br>
to be too low and raised to 10,000,000 bytes a bit later (see <br>
</tt><tt><a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/2818">http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/2818</a></tt><tt>) and I believe that this fix went into <br>
FWTools-2.3.1. Unfortunately the FWTools home page isn't well updated and it <br>
only shows 2.3.0 as the latest version. But you can find here FWTools 2.3.1 : <br>
</tt><tt><a href="http://home.gdal.org/fwtools/FWTools231.exe">http://home.gdal.org/fwtools/FWTools231.exe</a></tt><tt><br>
<br>
I was able to rename an attribute in a generated .gfs file and ogrinfo <br>
successfully returned the modified attribute name. So you'll have to provide <br>
more details, ideally a small GML file and the modified .gfs demonstrating a <br>
problem.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Even<br>
