Description
If you try to create a virtual layer from existing project layer that has spaces in layer name (like “My layer”) you'll receive an error when pressing `Check` button in ‘Creating of Virtual layer’ dialog. Layer won't be created. Dropping spaces gives positive result.

No error here - are you enclosing the table name in double quotes? Can you post more info?

Virtual layer is being chosen from layer list and doesn't have quotes by default. Check button returns an error (see screenshot). Adding double quotes does help, but it's not an obvious solution.
