[GRASS-user] where is MSYS in GRASS 7?

[Bartolomei.Chris]

Whew! ... thank you - that worked.
Just a couple notes: the C:\OSGeo4W/apps/grassX/etc/env.bat file did not have the GRASS_SH line in it so I just added it as you typed out and it works.
Also for anyone else trying this:
When installing GRASS from OSGEO4W, even if you select 7.0.4RC1 you still get 7.0.3 ... and if you install using the Express Desktop Install, you will need to go back and run the installer again, then select Advanced Installation and then in the Select Packages window, select msys and install that.
Not difficult nor time-consuming, but if you don't there's no msys on your system.

Thanks again!
:)

it's easy to switch to msys. Install grass and msys from OSGeo4W. Edit
C:\OSGeo4W/apps/grassX/etc/env.bat.

REM set GRASS_SH=%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\msys\bin\sh.exe

->

set GRASS_SH=%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\msys\bin\sh.exe
