Description

QGIS3 app seems to run fine and saves work. But when I come to close it consistently crashes.

Running on Mac OSX 10.3.6

I've taken out all plugins. I uninstalled QGIS and reinstalled. I've also taken out potentially conflicting pythons so the only 3 version is 3.6.6 and I've uninstalled QT so it could be reinstalled by QGIS the way it wanted. The messages seemed to suggest there was a problem with QT.

Here is the dump (but also look below, the message from the standalone python code might be more useful):

When I run the following code I get a crash:

from qgis.core import *

  1. supply path to qgis install location
    print('Nothing yet...')

QgsApplication.setPrefixPath("/Applications/QGIS3.app/Contents/MacOS", True)
print('Finished first call to QGIS...')

  1. create a reference to the QgsApplication, setting the # second argument to False disables the GUI
    qgs = QgsApplication([], False) <--- THIS CRASHES with the messages below
    print('About to init QGIS...')
  1. load providers
    qgs.initQgis()

print('Got QGIS up...')
str = input('Waiting for input...')

  1. Write your code here to load some layers, use processing
  2. algorithms, etc.
  1. When your script is complete, call exitQgis() to remove the
  2. provider and layer registries from memory

qgs.exitQgis()

Output from the python crash:

John-Harrops-MacBook-Pro:Intro john$ python3 connect.py
Nothing yet...
Finished first call to QGIS...
This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "cocoa"
in "".

Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
Abort trap: 6

Do you want the dump as well?

Thanks,

John

#1 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 5 years ago

  • Category changed from Unknown to mac_os_specific
  • Status changed from Open to Feedback

Try 3.4, try also with a new/clean profile.

#2 Updated by John Harrop over 5 years ago

Thanks for your comments.

1) I tried a clean profile and it did not make any difference that I could see. (Meaning the crash still seemed to be for the same cause.)

2) As far as I can see 3.4 is not yet available for Mac OSX. I'm looking forward to trying this when it is available.

I was hoping that the message from when I'm running standalone python and trying to connect to QGIS might be helpful. The "missing plugin" might suggest a messed up path somewhere but I'm struggling to find where that would be. Perhaps I should have reported the QGIS app and python API crashes as separate bugs, but I was suspicious that they are related and I thought that disconnecting the information might not help.

#3 Updated by John Harrop over 5 years ago

I see 3.4 is available now for Mac OSX. Tried that and neither problem has changed.

I've looked through the installation and the plugin support seems to be in the right places in the app contents, so I'm still not sure why QT cocoa is failing to be found.

#4 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 5 years ago

  • Category changed from mac_os_specific to Python bindings / sipify

You should ask in the developers mailing list if your code is ok.

John, I've had that QT error in python before (see http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/QGIS-3-Standalone-Python-Script-td5373335.html#a5373573 for answer from William Kyngesbury). As an example, see if the first 20 lines from this gist work for you - https://gist.github.com/dmofot/94345126db10660053ccfb0d76a1e32a#file-qgis3_standalone_osx-py-L1-L20

#6 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 5 years ago

Please try on QGIS 3.4.1, if the issue is still valid change the affected version, thanks.
