What happened?

Should wrap this line in a conditional to only be run if not on a unix machine:

ssim_proj_lib <- ssimEnvironment()$ProgramDirectory %>%
  file.path("gdal", "share") %>%
  normalizePath()

Otherwise the following warning is thrown at runtime because SyncroSim linux does not contain the gdal path:

Warning message:
In normalizePath(.) :
  path[1]="/home/ubuntu/syncrosim-3-1-17/gdal/share": No such file or directory
Object reference not set to an instance of an object

What component are you seeing the problem on?

R

Hmm, that would cause an error further down here

BurnP3PlusFireSTARR/src/growth-firestarr.R

Line 423 in 4a28d91

Sys.setenv("PROJ_LIB" = ssim_proj_lib)

if the variable doesn't exist. Maybe we could just add the arg to normalizePath to prevent a warning from being issued when the path doesn't exist?
