[Qgis-user] QGIS Master dependency problem.

2013-06-22 Thread Nick Hopton
QGIS Master from the nightly repository, Ubuntu 12.04 (amd64).

Hi All,

There were problems with this morning's upgrade (and yesterday's too) with
python-qgis-common and python-qgis:

pycentral: pycentral pkginstall: error byte-compiling files (549)
pycentral pkginstall: error byte-compiling files (549)
dpkg: error processing python-qgis-common (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of python-qgis:
 python-qgis depends on python-qgis-common (=
1.9.0+git20130618+59fd5e0~precise1); however:
  Package python-qgis-common is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing python-qgis (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
No apport report written because the error message indicates it's a
follow-up error from a previous failure.
Errors were encountered while processing:
 python-qgis-common
 python-qgis
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Regards,
Nick.

[Qgis-user] Projects with too many rasters

2013-06-22 Thread Lester Anderson
Hello,

Found an odd problem, but if your project has a few vector layers and a
large number of rasters covering the same area, then it seems that after a
certain number, not sure how many, but the vector layers at the top of
everything no longer remain visible.

Put simply, if you have a coastline layer at the top, overlying everything,
and add more and more rasters, eventually it gets buried by the rasters.

I am using 1.8.0 and have seen this problem a number of times with the
layers - tried re-ordering and putting the vector layer to the front again,
but no joy. There does appear to be a bug with visibility if too many
coincident rasters are loaded. I basically have to create separate projects
for certain raster/vector structures now to get around this.

Has anyone else seen this issue?

Cheers

Lester

Re: [Qgis-user] questions about the FOSSGIS 2013 benchmark comparisons between QGIS Server and UMN Mapserver

2013-06-22 Thread Marco Hugentobler
It is important that you test QGIS master not QGIS 1.8. QGIS 1.8 was 
definitely slower than UMN, but in master there are performance 
improvements in the server part. Marco knows the details.


There have been a lot of performance improvements in QGIS core (e.g. the 
new raster system, svg cache, more performant coordinate reprojection, 
CRS and Coordinate transform cache, project file cache, ...).


Nore that the benchmark especially measures the scalability of the WMS 
server (many concurrent requests). For scalability, it is important that 
as much is CPU-based and data comes from RAM rather than from disk. 
While a desktop user e.g. does not notice a request to the sqlite DB to 
lookup a CRS definition, this small disk access had a big impact on 
scalability. Similarly for SVG files, project files, coordinate 
transformations. All these things are cached now on first usage.


Regards,
Marco

Hi,
I was reading the graphs (I do not understand german, sorry) of the
slides from Sourcepole about their banchmarks [1].
I was surprised to see how QGIS Server outperforms UMN Mapserver,
because my experience was different. I haven't done comparisons in the
last months. In the past performances didn't appear better then
Mapserver.

Marco (and the ohters from Sourcepole), could you share the
configurations adopted for the benchmark? Hardware, http server
configuration, caching, tiling, etc.? Something is written inside the
PDF, but Google Translator isn't doing a great work :(

Thanks a lot,
Giovanni
