Description

The attribute table disappears and it is not possible to recover the attribute table after a click on the start digitizing button. I find out this behavior at the HEAD version. QGIS Windows 8.5.06 works fine.

Unfortunately, this also works in my computing environment. Does the database report anything unusual when clicking the 'start editing' button or when you try to recover the attribute table?
One possibility for me to test would be that you set up a little testdatabase and give me remote access (if your firewall allows this).

This seems to be a harder problem.
It depends on the platform/system I start QGIS. From a native KDE environment it works Under Windows with X-Server (eXcursion) it works, but not very stable. Starting QGIS from Tarantella secure network, our migration platform, it doesn't work. Perhaps it's a Tarantella problem???? I'm at a loss with it.

OK. I made some tests and it looks like a GNOME problem. Our Tarantelle secure network based on GNOME. When I start QGIS from GNOME Desktop the attribute table crashes. Starting QGIS from KDE everything works fine but the terminal reports the following warnings:
Warning: X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3
Major opcode: 20 (X_GetProperty)
Resource id: 0x1400336
Warning: X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3

Resource id: 0x1400336
Warning: X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3
Major opcode: 40 (X_TranslateCoords)

What can we do?????

Good news and bad news.
Good: I just made an upgrade QT-4.1.2 to QT-4.1.3 and now start digitzing doesn't lead to a crash of the attribute table in our trantella/GNOME gdm environment.

Bad: Prior I upgraded to QT-4.1.4, start digitizing works too, but QGIS crashed when I tried to zoom. This happens with Shape, GRASS and PostGIS polygon layers.

Hm, this tarantella environment seems to be strange. Do you have a backtrace so we can see where the crash exactly happens?

#6 Updated by Marco Hugentobler almost 18 years ago

After trying out 4.1.4 myself i also observe such crashes (under KDE). The backtrace is not very usefull as i didn't compile qt with -g. But for me it seems that this is a problem inside the qt library and not related to the qgis code.

Qt4.2 seems to work fine for me. Could you try if such crashes happen for you with 4.2?

#8 Updated by Redmine Admin over 17 years ago

This bug seems to be fixed since a longer time. I advise to close this ticket.
