rgrass7 : Error in parseGRASS

That's great Chris, it works fine as is !
Thank you, I don't have to keep another GRASS install aside then.

I'm sure it will be helpful to other people also.
Thanks again

Michael,

Using a fresh OSGEO4W64 standard quick desktop installation (i.e.
installation of the default desktop GIS software packages with the
installer and using C:\OSGeo4W64 as path)  I suggest the below solution.

You have to set all necessary eniromental and system variables
manually. I am not quit sure if I got them but actually it seems to
work for your question. As a conclusion I think your Python and all of
the rest is installed correct.


cheers Chris

Thanks for your insight.
I'll use a stand-alone GRASS install.

Thanks for investigating.

I'll try a standalone version of GRASS if needed.

Here is the traceback

traceback()

4: stop(paste(cmd, "not parsed"))
3: parseGRASS(cmd, legacyExec = legacyExec)
2: doGRASS(cmd, flags = flags, ..., parameters = parameters, echoCmd =
echoCmd, legacyExec = legacyExec)
1: execGRASS("v.db.addcolumn", map = "meuse", columns = "area_m2
double
precision")

My C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\grass\grass-7.0.5\bin lists *.exe or *.bat and
indeed the *.bat command are those which don't work (r.mask.bat,
v.db.addcolumn.bat,...). The batch calls Python scripts ; for example
v.db.addcolumn.bat is :

@"%GRASS_PYTHON%" "%GISBASE%/scripts/v.db.addcolumn.py" %*

So I guess something must be wrong in my Python installation... (it
works however from within a GRASS shell)

No, the logic for Windows and initGRASS has only ever been tested with
stand-alone GRASS. I would guess that in OSGeo4W the path variables
are wrong. I cannot even find out how to run initGRASS in R but
outside the OSGeo4W shell (doesn't find iconv.dll) or inside the
OSGeo4W shell (cannot create a temporary GRASS location). Unless you
or others really need OSGeo4W, I suggest asking others to implement
that - very bulky and fragile.

Here is a reproducible example (change your GRASS directory of
course) :

library(rgrass7)
library(sp)
initGRASS("C:/OSGeo4W64/apps/grass/grass-7.0.5", home = tempdir(),
override = TRUE)
data(meuse)
coordinates(meuse) <- ~x+y
writeVECT(meuse, "meuse")
execGRASS("v.db.addcolumn", map = "meuse", columns = "area_m2 double
precision")

This appears to run correctly on Windows 7 with GRASS 7.0.5 Windows
stand-alone. Do you need to use OSGeo4W - the internal logic used for
finding out where the different versions keep their executables and
batch files varies?

What does traceback() say after the error? The error comes from
parseGRASS("v.db.addcolumn") - the XML error comes from not being
able
to read the output of v.db.addcolumn<.ext> --interface-description
where <.ext> may be .exe or .bat I think.

Roger

I get :
Error : XML content does not seem to be XML: 'The specified path
was not
found.'
In addition: Warning message:
running command 'v.db.addcolumn.bat --interface-description' had
status 1
Error in parseGRASS(cmd, legacyExec = legacyExec) :
  v.db.addcolumn not parsed

Other execGRASS commands (like r.neighbors, r.mapcalc,..)  work
fine,
but some other (r.mask) fail with a similar XML error.

All commands work fine when used from the GRASS shell...

What is this XML error ?
Thanks

Dear list,

Using rgrass7 on Windows7 with GRASS 7.0.5 (OSGeo distribution),
I get
the following error :

Please always try to provide a reproducible example using a
standard
data set. In addition, the output of traceback() following the
error
would be helpful. Are you running R inside GRASS, or using R to
initiate GRASS?

Consider using the grass-stats list:

https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-stats

as it is more likely to yield results, but there also provide an
example that anyone can reproduce. The example should avoid loading
other packages, and should be run from the R console (not, say,
RStudio).

Roger

execGRASS("v.db.addcolumn", map = "result_v", columns = "area_m2
double precision")

Error : XML content does not seem to be XML: 'Le chemin d'acc?s

and a similar one for r.mask :

execGRASS("r.mask", raster = "map")

Error : XML content does not seem to be XML: 'Le chemin d'acc?s

In addition: Warning message:
running command 'r.mask.bat --interface-description' had status 1

whereas most other execGRASS command I tried work as expected.
Any idea ?
