Description

I'm working with QGIS cloud 2.18.4. When I'm adding a WMS layer, QGIS frequently crashes or at least can't really work because it's so slow. In the legend window normally the WMS layer doesn't appear with it's name (only check-box). When adding more than one layer, QGIS always crashes. Thanks!

Please post the WMS service URL and also upgrade to the latest QGIS version available, 2.18.10.

WMS URL:
http://geoshop.lu.ch/SWMS?REQUEST=GetCapabilities&SERVICE=WMS?VERSION=1.1.1
you'll need user/password

Can't update to the latest version at the moment, because it's a company installation.

see attached screencast, no issues whatsoever here, also is fast. The layers do not show a legend because likely the server is not configured (or well configured) to create a legend for WMS layers.

very strange... it has also been tested by sourcepole (Pirmin Kalberer) and there it also workes fine, but in our company, it doesn't... That's why Pirmin Kalberer recommended to post the issue here...

you likely must look at this as a local issue: try disbaling 3rd aprty plugins, clean QGIS cache, monitor RAM consumption (as you use Windows 32bit...), etc.

If you can try remove (after a backup) the .qgis2 folder.

I tried all these things, but no success.
I can load the whole WMS, it workes (also quite fast), but when I disable the WMS layer in the layer window or delete it, QGIS crashes. When I load only one layer of the WMS, it also workes, until I want to disable the layer or load another layer too.
RAM consumption is ok.

tried hard here as above, and no problems.

please try on a different machine, possibly with a QGIS 64 bit clean installation.
