Possibility 1: Your hard disk is full.

Possibility 2: You installed gvSIG as a different user (administrator?) than
you are runnig it as and it has not write access to the jre/bin directory.
You will need to run gvSIG as the same user who installed it.
We will fix this problem for the final release of gvSIG OADE 2010.

Possibility 3: The installation is corrupt or incomplete. Remove and install again.
Make sure that you have enough free space on the hard disk you are
installing to.

GvSIG 1.1.2 only does affine transformations. This is not good enough
if the images you work with have strong distortion. In that case you
need a polynomial transformation, which gvSIG 1.9 provides. You also
need a large number of points that are nicely spread over the images.
If you don't have those, then there is not much any GIS can do for you.

The old gvSIG has many problems with attribute table, especially joined
tables. Please don't use that version any longer.
