I am not sure what to look for now, suggestions?

Is r.texture supporting LFS?

There seems to be a large file support issue under certain (?) circumstances:

Why do you believe that this is related to LFS?

WARNING: Unable to rename null file
         '/grassdata/patUTM32/alba_classification/.tmp/blade21/2161.1' to
         '/grassdata/patUTM32/alba_classification/cell_misc/x43140_2006_pca.1_ASM/null'

These warnings are generated by Rast_close() or Rast_unopen(), and correspond to a rename() system call failing.

Possible reasons for failure are listed in the rename(2) manual page, but the most likely reason is filesystem permissions. Ensure that you own all of the directories within the mapset, and that the owner has write permission on them.

If you're using group-writeable mapsets (suppressing the mapset ownership check), be aware that a user having bit 0020 (group-write) set in their umask will cause this sort of issue (subdirectories created by commands run by that user won't be writeable by anyone else, resulting in maps which cannot be overwritten or removed). This is a large part of the reason why the mapset ownership check exists.

Similar issues can arise from copying maps using standard (non-GRASS) tools (if run by a privileged user, they may copy the ownership).

Is r.texture supporting LFS?

Modules typically don't need to do anything regarding LFS; the support is in the libraries. The main issue which affects modules is that they shouldn't assume that cell counts will fit into an "int" or even a "long". But even failing to do so won't have any effect upon I/O.

I got the idea from

Range of data:    min = -2147483648  max = -2147483648

...

These warnings are generated by Rast_close() or Rast_unopen(), and correspond to a rename() system call failing.

Would it be possible to make the errno more visible or "clear"?

Yes, I checked and the mapset owner has write permissions. So, the situation is this:

/grassdata/patUTM32/alba_classification
- /grassdata/ is mounted to the actual blade (cluster system) via NFS
- /grassdata/patUTM32/: I am owner of that, group write is set
- /grassdata/patUTM32/alba_classification/: owned by the user having problems

This setting we use for years without troubles.

If you're using group-writeable mapsets (suppressing the mapset ownership check), be aware that a user having bit 0020 (group-write) set in their umask will cause this sort of issue

Here the various permissions:

(subdirectories created by commands run by that user won't be writeable by anyone else, resulting in maps which cannot be overwritten or removed). This is a large part of the reason why the mapset ownership check exists.

Not sure yet if above cited permissions cause the error?

I got the idea from

Range of data:    min = -2147483648  max = -2147483648

LFS issues wouldn't (directly) cause this. -2147483648 is -231 = INT_MIN = (int)0x80000000. I believe that it arises from casting a double to an int where the value isn't representable as an int:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
    double x = 1.0e12;
    double y = 0.0 / 0.0;
    printf("%g %d\n", x, (int) x);
    printf("%g %d\n", y, (int) y);
    return 0;
}

produces:

1e+12 -2147483648
-nan -2147483648

These warnings are generated by Rast_close() or Rast_unopen(), and correspond to a rename() system call failing.

Would it be possible to make the errno more visible or "clear"?

Try r61048.

Here the various permissions:

What are the permissions and ownership for

/grassdata/patUTM32/alba_classification/.tmp/blade21
/grassdata/patUTM32/alba_classification/cell_misc/*

?
