[Shake-dev] Postscript delegate failed

Dear Petros and ShakeMap users,
I didn't see that problem during my failed attempt of using ShakeMap in Ubuntu 12.04 (64 bits) and I am sorry for not giving you hand with this issue. However, there were something that called my attention when you ran grind program and I would like to ask you some questions.

Some months ago, I compiled and installed ShakeMap in Ubuntu 12.04, however, when I ran grind with the flag -qtm a problem arose:

============================================================================================
Using active tectonic factors.

===========================================================================================
Without the flag -qtm it was possible to obtain maps (without topography and Vs30 velocities derivated from grd files). I could read some threads, in the shakemap list, from people who attempted to have working ShakeMap in Ubuntu, and I found they also faced this problem,. Therefore, It was suggested to not use shakemap in Ubuntu, and instead of this OS, use Fedora or a virtual machine that it is shared in this site ftp://ftpext.usgs.gov/pub/cr/co/golden/lin/ShakeMap%20Portable/. I am currently using Fedora to run ShakeMap and all is working properly.

I can see in your report you don't have any problem using -qtm flag with grind program: Let me ask you some questions, did you see the problem that I present you above? If yes, could you please let me know what you did to solve it?

For the ShakeMap community, Is anybody running ShakeMap in Ubuntu 12.04 (64 bits) using grd files?

Thank you in advance.


Kind regards,
 
Billy Edson Burgoa Rosso

Hi Branden and thanks for your prompt answer. Unfortunately I had no 
luck even after your suggestion. Seems that 10.04 and 12.04 have 
differences regarding ghostscript and its dependents.

Regards,
Petros
