[Proj] Failed to initialize PROJ.4 with "..."

[Chris Marsh]

Hi,

Thanks for the thoughts.
Yes ERROR 6 is the GDAL wrapper error.


On the computer that 'works':
cs2cs +proj=latlon +datum=WGS84 +to +proj=aea +lat_1=20 +lat_2=60 +lat_0=40
+lon_0=-96 +ellps=GRS80 +units=m +no_defs
-135.197151 60.52163
-2102114.41 2828965.44 0.00

On the computer that doesn't

./cs2cs +proj=latlon +datum=WGS84 +to +proj=aea +lat_1=20 +lat_2=60
+lat_0=40 +lon_0=-96 +ellps=GRS80 +units=m +no_defs
-135.197151 60.52163
-2102114.41 2828965.44 0.00

So that seems like that works....

Would this point to GDAL being 100% the culprit?

Cheers
Chris
