[Qgis-user] Errors when re-opening new installation of QGIS

2015-01-14 Thread Reinier Battenberg

I subscribed to respond on this post, so its not in the thread.
http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/qgis-user/2015-January/030462.html

We are having the same issue, with 15 workstations (we are in a training)

about 14 hours ago, it was still fine.

There is a popup after starting the app (which is probably the plugin update 
checker)

When you open the Plugin Manager, the download of the Official Plugin 
Repository 
never finishes.

We use 2 different ISPs to access the internet.
We can open http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/plugins.xml?qgis=2.6 in the 
browser without XML parsing errors.

A quick fix would be highly appreciated, so we can do our plugin exercises :-)

When I restart now (i had restarted before), the error is gone. We are back. 
If anyone did something, thanks. If this is an error that may return maybe it 
can be a bit more descriptive?

Hi Richard,

Its the same issue. Its all related to the download of the plugins xml 
file.


Once you have the error, which happens when you start the application, 
because the plugin updater downloads the file, anything you do with 
plugin management keeps failing, but not always throwing an error.




rgds,

Reinier

Hi,

In this case I think it is best to  create an issues for this.
OR split up this email, so it is more clear what it is about.

Because it looks like you describe three (non related) problems?

-1-
From this error it looks like a bug:

An error has occured while executing Python code:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File

/Applications/QGIS.app/Contents/MacOS/../Resources/python/pyplugin_installer/installer_data.py,
line 460, in xmlDownloaded
if isCompatible(QGis.QGIS_VERSION, qgisMinimumVersion,
qgisMaximumVersion):
  File

/Applications/QGIS.app/Contents/MacOS/../Resources/python/pyplugin_installer/version_compare.py,
line 188, in isCompatible
if len(maxVer)TypeError: object of type 'NoneType' has no len()

BUT: we should know if this is an error AFTER there has been a time 
out

for the network request or not.
It is not clear to me from the messages if this is only OSX related 
or

that it also turns up on Windows (Lene?).

-2-
About the network request, we should dive into that one IF it occurs.
Best when in such case put that in the IRC channel so people can 
check it.


-3-
Different providers have different capabilities. Have a look in the
'metadata' tab of the layer properties.

Regards,

Richard Duivenvoorde
