[GRASSGUI] wx start error

[William Kyngesburye]

An error trying to start wxgrass. With 'wxgrass&' from a running
GRASS session, I get this error. Interestingly, if I set
my .grassrc6 to wx, I get the same error after a gis_set.py error,
but GRASS automatically starts in the last mapset I was in (as is set
in .grassrc6), instead of bailing completely (since gis_set.py failed).

The gis_set.py error appears only if I have DEBUG set to GUI:3 (it
doesn't like the : there). I get the normal mapset selection in
python if DEBUG is not set or is set to just a number.


startup error:

William,

This kind of looks like a problem specific to your system. Something is
wrong in your GRASS settings file. Maybe an invalid gis database, location,
or mapset. This is causing the startup to fail and default into the text
interface. Try running g.region -gp. I suspect it will give problematic
results.

[William Kyngesburye]

It's in the Spearfish mapset. g.region -gp works without problems.

The gis_set.py problem at least I can understand - the line:

key,val = line.split(":")

doesn't seem to work when there is more than one delimiter in the
string. Setting DEBUG=GUI:3 creates this in grassrc6:

DEBUG: GUI:3


For the bigger problem, after poking around,

[snipped what I was going to say before I updated from CVS]

It appears I have no "module-d.shadedmap.gif" in my gui icon set
(grass src/gui/icons). And, I just updated from CVS and there it is!

William,

Thanks for troubleshooting.

There needs to be a better way to set this that won't kill gis_set.py. I
think Martin worked out the debug routine.

Martin: any other way to specify debug? Maybe some way to specify the 1st
colon in the split. Have to look it up.

I wish there was a way to trap a missing icon error. It it not easy to spot.
