Clicking OK allows QGIS to complete initialization.

[processing] don't throw error if GRASS not found on Mac (fix #17443)

History

#1 Updated by Gary Sherman about 7 years ago

This is related to GRASS installed by Homebrew. The detection code doesn't account for that on the Mac. Homebrew installed GRASS here: /usr/local/opt/grass7/grass-7.2.2/

#2 Updated by Alexander Bruy almost 7 years ago

  • Status changed from Open to Closed
  • % Done changed from 0 to 100

#3 Updated by Gary Sherman almost 7 years ago

Different error but still related to GRASS detection:

There is no Processing menu item after closing the error dialog on startup.

  • Homebrew installs grass7 in: /usr/local/opt/grass7
  • /usr/local/opt/grass7/grass-base is a symlink to /usr/local/opt/grass7/grass-7.2.2
  • The grass72 shell script is in /usr/local/opt/grass7/bin/grass72
  • /usr/local/opt/grass7/grass-base contains grass.sh and grass72.sh
  • /usr/local/opt/grass7/grass-base/bin contains all the grass function executables (e.g. r.in.gdal, v.in.ogr)
  • which grass72 returns: /usr/local/bin/grass72

#4 Updated by Alexander Bruy almost 7 years ago

I don't see anything related to GRASS provider in the stacktrace. It is looks like completely different error.
