Actually to be more precise, I had to copy the entire demolocation
directory with the PERMANENT mapset...
And some more issues:
- trying to create a new location from a georeferenced file or from an
EPSG code, I get:
couldn't execute "c:\grass\grass-6.3.cvs\etc\grass-xterm-wrapper": no such
file or directory
couldn't execute "c:\grass\grass-6.3.cvs\etc\grass-xterm-wrapper": no such
file or directory
while executing
"exec -- $env(GISBASE)/etc/grass-xterm-wrapper -T g.proj -n g.proj -e
$env(GISBASE)/etc/grass-run.sh g.proj -c georef=$filepath
location=$fileLocation"
invoked from within
".fileloc.def invoke"
("uplevel" body line 1)
invoked from within
"uplevel #0 [list $w invoke]"
(procedure "tk::ButtonUp" line 24)
invoked from within
"tk::ButtonUp .fileloc.def"
(command bound to event)
I imagine that wingrass should'nt even call grass-xterm-wrapper since we
don't have an xterm, or ?
- creating a new location with parameters works, but with the following
issues:
- the mapset created at the end of the procedure is not a valid
mapset as it does not contain all the necessary files
- when creating a lat-long location, it jumps immediately from the
one-line description to the region extension, without letting me
define the ellipsoid or other parameters. After the region
definition, it creates the location, but emits a warning that the
"projection information files were not created".
I'll keep trying whenever I have some time.
