WinGRASS MSYS Console doesn't run correctly — at Initial Version

Reported by: gislab Owned by: grass-dev@…
Priority: major Milestone: 6.4.0
Component: Default Version: 6.3.0
Keywords: msys console, wingrass Cc:
CPU: x86-32 Platform: MSWindows XP

Description

  1. Install GRASS in C:\GRASS
  2. Check C:\GRASS\msys\home\, in this folder C\Documents and

Settings\MYNAME is created during install, where grass63 is sitting.

  1. Run Start\Programs\GRASS\GRASS MSYS Console
  2. Check C:\Gis\GRASS\msys\home\ again, now in this folder MYNAME

(lowercase) folder is created, without grass63 file in it.

Needless to say, that even if I move grass63 from the folder made right after install "C:\GRASS\msys\home\C\Documents and Settings\MYNAME" to the one created on first run of MSYS "C:\GRASS\msys\home\MYNAME" GRASS GUI starts with error messages, grass63 -text doesn't start at all, producing "Redirection is not supported" message.

Removing .grassrc6 from C:\GRASS\msys\home\C\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\ and .grassrc6 from C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\ doesn't help.

The problem was replicated on at least 4 more machines by other people under the same operating system and grass version. http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/grass-windows/2008-September/001502.html
