I have found some additional trouble regarding virtual layers, this time copy/paste to an external program. http://hub.qgis.org/issues/14736 Magnus -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Project-file-data-loss-tp5262903p5263118.html Sent from the Quantum GIS -

Hi Pierre-Marie, what do you mean by "update virtual layers"? On the other hand I definitely did not modify the data structure (e.g. add or rename fields) of the layers involved in the virtual layers. Bernhard Am 26.04.2016 um 22:48 schrieb Pierre-Marie Le Dantec: Hi, I encoutered the same

I added a comment about virtual layers in the ticket, since we now have at least two cases with this setup. -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Project-file-data-loss-tp5262903p5262948.html Sent from the Quantum GIS - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

I had the virtual layers in suspicion, that's why I pointed it out. I had a rule based style for them using joined fields from other layers (joined in the definition of the virtual layer not in QGIS via layer join). The project opened a couple of times all right, though. Bernhard Am

This seems very much like my case. The layers are still defined when opening the file in a text editor, but QGIS only opens the layer group (in the layer list, not the map). My project also contained virtual layers. Could that be the problem? -- View this message in context:

Strange thing, I just lost some work because the project file still loads but does only contain the layer groups. All layers are "gone", however when checking the qgs file in the editor, the layers are still defined. I saved to a local file within less than a second. QGIS 2.14.1 on Ubuntu 64

OK. In my case, I do save to a network drive, but the saving is quick (a few seconds). I did not kill the save process and no error is reported when opening the project file. -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Project-file-data-loss-tp5262903p5262921.html

Hi Yes, I will start making regular backups of the project file. In this case, the .qgs~ file had the same problem as the original file, so I had to start over with the project file. QGIS did not report any issues when saving yesterday. I opened a ticket,

Hi, We've had some problems with large project files. The saving of the file takes quite long time and occasionally users don't wait for the process to finish and terminate the program ending up with a corrupt file. But then users can't open the file. Maybe not the same problem. The .qgs~ files
