Re: [Qgis-user] Fetch plugins crashing
Hi Joe, some things you could try: - rename the .qgis-folder in your home, and start qgis (which will then make a new one. You can then see if this still happens without all the plugins (which qgis can't see now because they are in the renamed folder) - if still crashing. Try removing the 'plugin_installer' plugin temporarily - if still crashing: try starting qgis with 'strace' (if not installed, install first). If you start qgis from commandline then: strace qgis you will have a long (!) list of messages from which the last part maybe shows you what went wrong... how did you install qgis anyway: from respository or building your own? (I'm running my from trunk compiled qgis on ubuntu 9.10 without problems)... what version of python do you have?

When I click on "fetch Pyhton plugins" the QGIS app disappears(crashes) I deleted all traces of the old version before installing QGIS 1.4 I tried sudo qgis to make sure it was not a permissions issue and it still crashed This is what I get when I start QGIS from the command prompt: Python support ENABLED :-) Loaded : fTools (package: fTools) Loaded : Plugin Installer (package: plugin_installer) Warning: QObject::connect: Incompatible sender/receiver arguments QgsProject::writeProject(QDomDocument&) --> QgisApp::projectChanged(QDomDocument) Any thing I can do the solve this problem Thanks Joe PS: The program works fine otherwise ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
Re: [Qgis-user] some impressions from my students
Hi Geofrey, +1 from me on this one... though I think there have been reasons given in the past as to why this is not the case?

So one could change the way it works more interactively. Shouldn't the list of found features be sorted in layer order when Identify Features is in 'top-down' mode?

Re: [Qgis-user] Re: Join Attributes - no Shapefile createt (QGIS 1.4)
Excellent! I've changed how Join Attributes works a bit (in trunk), so hopefully problems like this will be less frequent in the future. If you have a chance, I'd appreciate a few tests to make sure that what was working before is *still* working :-) Cheers, Carson On Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 9:04 PM, Claas Leiner wrote: > Thanks for answers, > > when I openend the termine.dbf with OpenOffice.org, delete the dbf-infos > in the column-heads, save the file as *.odt and then save the file as > *.dbf (utf8), I can join the termine.dbf.
