Projection problem when force-cubing Sentinel-1 images

[pleitebier]

Hi,
when trying to import Sentinel-1-Images (Int16, Nodata=-9999) with force-cube I run into an error:

ERROR 1: PROJ: proj_as_wkt: SQLite error on SELECT name, ellipsoid_auth_name, ellipsoid_code, prime_meridian_auth_name, prime_meridian_code, area_of_use_auth_name, area_of_use_code, publication_date, deprecated FROM geodetic_datum WHERE auth_name = ? AND code = ?: no such column: publication_date

It might be that this problem arises from different versions of PROJ (https://www.mail-archive.com/postgis-users@lists.osgeo.org/msg09041.html). My gdal is GDAL 3.4.1, released 2021/12/27. Just pulled and tried with the latest force version - it didn't work.

I have no idea how to solve this issue...
Thanks for any help

Without knowing what the exact cause of the issue here is:
If you have the possibility to run FORCE in Docker, please do so. This will ensure that the environment that FORCE is running in is configured properly without conflicting packages and also gives you full flexibility when switching between versions etc.

If you are by any chance running the force command from a terminal where a conda environment is activated that includes GDAL, then this might be the issue. See here #146 (reply in thread)

autsch I haven't seen that thread before and is exactly going to the bottom of the issue...
thanks
