[GRASS5] Problems with v.external

[Luigi Pirelli]

Hi at all,

I've some problem with v.external command.

*** I've PostGIS DB table "comuni"

riade=# \d comuni
              Table "public.comuni"
    Column   |         Type          | Modifiers
------------+-----------------------+-----------
  gid        | integer               | not null
  nome_com   | character varying(70) |
  area       | double precision      |
  perimeter  | double precision      |
  cod_amm    | character varying(9)  |
  cod_reg    | character varying(2)  |
  cod_pro    | character varying(3)  |
  cod_com    | character varying(3)  |
  cod_procom | character varying(6)  |
  grado_mont | character varying(14) |
  zonaalt    | integer               |
  ripartizio | integer               |
  qtmedia    | integer               |
  qtminima   | integer               |
  qtmassima  | integer               |
  regione    | character varying(21) |
  provincia  | character varying(20) |
  the_geom   | geometry              |
Indexes:
     "comuni_pkey" primary key, btree (gid)
Check constraints:
     "$2" CHECK (geometrytype(the_geom) = 'POLYGON'::text OR the_geom IS NULL)
     "$1" CHECK (srid(the_geom) = 23032)


*** imported in GRASS using command:

v.external dsn="PG:host=localhost user=postgres dbname=riade" layer=comuni 
output=comuni
Building topology ...
Feature: 8102
Topology was built.
Number of nodes     :   15678

*** DB Connection status is:

v.db.connect -p map=comuni
Vector map <comuni> is connected by:
field <1> table <comuni> in database <PG:host=localhost user=postgres 
dbname=riade> through driver <ogr> with key <FID>

*** But showing this data with d.vect I've this error:

*** gid (first field) in table conuni has gid=[0-8101] so 0 exist as Feature ID 
(FID?)

*** Differently Table Comuni could be shown suing DB link in qgis.

step missing?

Thanks for your help.
