[GRASSLIST:8200] Re: libgrass_gmath.so error on startup (FC4)

[Chris Bennett]

Thanks Jaime and Michele for your suggestions.  Unfortunately, these 
don't seem to be the problem.  I have installed the proj4, geos, and 
gdal applications, and everything seems to have the proper permissions, 
including spearfish being owned by my normal user account.

Still at a loss.

-Chris.

If you use a normal user account maybe you can't work on data owned by root...



-------- Original post ------------
Hi Folks,

I'm new to grass and trying to run for the first time, but keep getting 
the message below at startup after selecting the dataset spearfish in 
the GUI's Dataset Selection dialog.  I'm running Fedora Core 4 with the 
latest grass-related packages installed (I can provide the versions if 
needed).  This error doesn't appear in the archives so it must be 
something simple, but I can't figure it out.  I've installed everything 
as root, and the owner and group of all the files is root.

Here's the version info for the machine:
$ uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 #1 Thu Jun 2 22:55:56 EDT 
2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

The error message is:

GRASS 6.0.1 (spearfish60):~/grass > Error in startup script: ps.map: 
error while loading shared libraries: 
/usr/local/grass-6.0.1/lib/libgrass_gmath.so: cannot restore segment

Thanks for any help.
