Description

I tried to install QGis for the first time. I have no previous experience with it and no previous installation.

I chose 3.0.1 and followed the instructions in https://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#debian-ubuntu.

I tried with both latest package in https://qgis.org/debian and nightly version.

In both case, I get the splash screen, and then the crash.

Attaching terminal output (/usr/bin/qgis.bin &> qgis.log) for both cases. The logs differ. Looks like nightly goes further.

I'm working in a Debian Stretch virtual machine.

History

#1 Updated by Jérôme L almost 6 years ago

I just tried on another machine. It is a Debian Stretch as well, although this one is not a virtual machine.

I installed the latest release (a86bec2) and it starts without issue.

I don't know how to investigate the bug on the VM.

#2 Updated by Jérôme L almost 6 years ago

Attaching a log of an attempt with latest nightly (nothing new, just the addresses and times change but I realized the version number in the file I had attached is incomplete).

Anything I can do to investigate this?

Thanks.

#3 Updated by Jérôme L almost 6 years ago

Same error on 3.0.2.

Attaching a log.

Anything useful I could try?

Thanks.

#4 Updated by Jérôme L almost 6 years ago

New backtrace with 3.0.3.

Any clue how to debug this? Anything more I should provide?

#5 Updated by Jérôme L almost 6 years ago

  • Status changed from Open to Closed

The problem was due to another version of PyQt5 being installed locally.

I realized today by accident that `from PyQt5 import QtCore` would segfault.

I purged my local pip3 installations of pyqt5 and sip to only keep the one installed by the package manager and QGis starts as expected.

I'm not sure exactly what was wrong, but I don't think it is QGis's responsability.

Sorry about the noise. Hopefully, this bugreport will help someone with a similar issue (hint: try to import QtCore in a Python interpreter).
