Re: [Qgis-user] Silent installation

2007-02-26 Thread Tim Sutton

Hi Leonardo

Can you file these issues as bugs at http://svn.qgis.org/trac ? Its
difficult to keep track of bugs via email. File them against Version
0.8.0, Milestone 0.8.1 which is where all the bugs for this release
are grouped. Many thanks for your feedback!

Regards

Tim

Hi Tim,
I'm testing the new QGIS and I see a good work, it seems there are only
two problems:
- when you use the GRASS tools and you see the list of the GRASS layers
you can't see the icons of the management of the layers (show layer,
copy, rename)
- when you want edit a GRASS vector and you click on the edit icon an
output message say:
No maps opened in mMaps, probably problem in runtime linking, static
variables are not shared by provider and plugin.

I will make some test again, good work!

Leonardo

 Hi all

 OK so the latest preview build at:

 http://qgis.org/uploadfiles/testbuilds/qgis_setup0.8.1preview1.exe

 supports silent installation now. Run from the command line like this

 qgis_setup0.8.1.exe /S

 There are a few things to note:
 -  after running the above command the installler will fork to the
 background and  immediately return you to the prompt.
 - the installer uses all default options that means that it will try
 to go onto the internet and retrieve the two sample datasets of around
 20mb each.
 - if you wish to customise the datasets etc that are installed, you
 can quite easily modify the nsis installer - its in svn 0.8 branch
 under win_build.

 The procedure for creating your custom installer is (more or less)

 - Install qgis 0.8.1 preview (and later final release) into c:\Program
 Files\qgis0.8.1
 - Install nulsoft NSIS installer application
 - Check out the win_build dir from qgis 0.8 branch:

  https://svn.qgis.org/repos/qgis/branches/Release-0_8_0/win_build

 - Follow the notes pertaining to fixing auto unzip issues in the
 source in README.txt
 - edit qgis.nsi and add remove sample data etc.
 - Run nsis on the nsi file
 - Feel good and be happy :-)

 Hope that helps

 Regards

 Tim

   Assuming you are on windows though. :-)
  How did you know? ;-)
 
   I am afraid there is currently no such option inside the
   windows installer, but I am not entirely sure.
   I'd be interested in this too so if someone knows another
  Gary Sherman already mailed me, telling me the same as you.
  This option is currently not available.
  I'm pretty sure though, this would help acceptance by institutional
  users like Universities or in our case ministries (yes, Qgis has a
  very good chance to go official in Austria).

 So why not preparing a nsis-installer where your settings (path,
 languag, etc.) are hardcoded and it only needs to be executed by
 an administrator on the dedicated computer?

 Seems doable though.

 Best
 Stephan

[Qgis-user] MapInfo layers in QGIS

2007-02-26 Thread veljo

hi all,

I'm pretty new to GIS in general but the QGIS 0.8.0 (my nearly first GIS
software) I manged to install on Suse 10.0 (if somebody needs assistance I
could provide, that wasn't so straightforward, took me 2 days)...

Ok, so I have some of my GPS data (WP's etc), and Map Info vector layers.
Originally Mapinfo has several layers on top of each other, I have them in
one file to import at once into QGIS. Everything looks fine but... I cannot
enable editing for layers originating from MapInfo either Create spatial
indexing for the same layers:-(  GPS WPs are fine for that Should be
that possible or not?  Maybe with GRASS?  Grass I touched as well a bit as I
had some other layers coming as ArcInfo .e00 files with were quite nicely
imported via Grass

cheers,
cyz

ps sorry when these questions have been risen already, I tried to search a
bit but didn't find
