pygrass GridModule: ERROR: Unable to open element file <windows>

Reported by: mlennert Owned by: grass-dev@…
Priority: normal Milestone: 7.6.0
Component: PyGRASS Version: svn-trunk
Keywords: GridModule Cc:
CPU: Unspecified Platform: Unspecified

Description

I've been using a script with code resembling the attached python script for months (notably through the i.cutlines addon), without any error. It uses the GridModule class from pygrass to run i.zc on tiles of an input map (as i.zc reads everything into memory).

I suddenly get the following errors, both with trunk and release76:

Does anyone have any idea what might be going wrong ? When I look into one of these izc_* directories, I see the following:

GRASS 7.6.svn (nc_spm_08):~ > ls -l GRASSDATA/nc_spm_08/izc_002_002/

-rw-r--r-- 1 mlennert mlennert  81 oct 19 11:20 VAR
-rw-r--r-- 1 mlennert mlennert 317 oct 19 11:20 WIND

Does anyone have any idea about what might be going on ? This keeps me from launching quite long-running processes, so it would be great if I could solve this rapidly. I have to admit I'm a bit lost even just trying to understand what might be wrong and how I should debug this. Any hints are more than welcome.

Same errors here. What is the content of the WIND file(s). Here, all of the WIND files, inside each izc_* directory, are identical and set to

proj:       99
zone:       0
north:      1000
south:      0
east:       1000
west:       0
cols:       1000
rows:       1000
e-w resol:  1
n-s resol:  1
top:        1.000000000000000
bottom:     0.000000000000000
cols3:      1000
rows3:      1000
depths:     1
e-w resol3: 1
n-s resol3: 1
t-b resol:  1

which is the "default" region in the Location 'nc_spm_08_grass7', Mapset 'PERMANENT':

g.region -p
projection: 99 (Lambert Conformal Conic)
zone:       0
datum:      nad83
ellipsoid:  a=6378137 es=0.006694380022900787
north:      1000
south:      0
west:       0
east:       1000
nsres:      1
ewres:      1
rows:       1000
cols:       1000
cells:      1000000

Yet the raster map lies elsewhere:

r.info ortho_2001_t792_1m -g
north=222504
south=219456
east=640081
west=637033
nsres=1
ewres=1
rows=3048
cols=3048
cells=9290304
datatype=CELL
ncats=188

Or is it irrelevant, and they are just set back to the default after the script's completion, since the script uses gscript.use_temp_region()?

I think this is related to gscript.use_temp_region(). The error messages are all related to a region named tmp.grid_test.py.498, but this region does not exist in the subsequently created temporary mapset. This temporary region is defined in the current mapset and only valid in the current mapset. Other temporary mapsets created later on in the script can not access this temporary region definition, thus the ERRORs searching for tmp.grid_test.py.498 in different mapsets.

Yes, that's it. Thanks to both of you and sorry for the noise. I'm busy with too many things in parallel and forgot that I had only added use_temp_region() recently into this script.

Don't know if it is worth trying to fit GridModule with use_temp_region(), so closing.
