[GRASS-dev] Installing GRASS on cygwin

[Jerry Nelson]

Garret, I can't help with the error message, but have you tried the
non-cygwin windows version? It's still beta, but is pretty close. You can
get it at http://moritz.homelinux.org/grass/wingrass/. Another alternative
is qgis, which has its own gui frontend but runs grass commands. That's
available from http://qgis.org/index.php?option=com_content
<http://qgis.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=65&Itemid=71>
&task=view&id=65&Itemid=71.

 

Regards, Jerry

Subject: [GRASS-dev] Installing GRASS on cygwin

 

Hi,
I'm having issues installing GRASS on cygwin running on Windows.
I execute the configure script below successfully and with no errors.

CFLAGS="-g -Wall" ./configure  --with-includes=c:/msys/local/include \
--with-libs=c:/msys/local/lib  --with-python
--with-proj-share=/usr/share/proj
But when I run make, it hangs when it enters the d.ask command:

make[2]: Entering directory `/c/GRASS/grass-6.2.2/display/d.ask'
GISRC=/c/GRASS/grass-6.2.2/dist.i686-pc-cygwin/demolocation/.grassrc62

I would be really grateful if anyone could help as I've wasted 2 days trying
to fix this.  Thanks,
Garret.
