Description

I've tested several scenarios and they all works fine and fast with QGIS 2.18.

to reproduce:

git checkout https://github.com/elpaso/qgis3-server-vagrant.git
cd qgis3-server-vagrant
vagrant up

There is a configured project in the resource/qgis folder: https://github.com/elpaso/qgis3-server-vagrant/tree/master/resources/qgis

Issues:

  • Timeout when loading the features layer "world" with all deployment methods (apache 8081, ngix 8080 and wgsi 8082), tested with ab concurrent and got no issues at all: fast and reliable
  • Partial download of the features
  • The a.m. vagrant has a HTTP Basic auth configuration username=username and password=password, but I tested also a configuration without HTTP auth and the issues are still there.

I've also observed deadlock in qgswfsrequest.cpp line 206 - waitCondition.wait( &waitConditionMutex ); when opening another WFS from metasearch catalog window.

I can confirm that WFS works in a very inconsistent way now on 3.4.5 and above.

I can confirm these issues as well. I've had to stick with QGIS 2.x so far, because since QGIS 3.0 WFS in QGIS is next to unusable. I really hope these issues can be fixed soon. I can confirm that these issues are not present in QGIS 2.18.

#6 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 5 years ago

We made some test with a service (mapserver is the backend) that do not need authentication.
The real difference seems depends on the "enable paging" option, if not used things seems to work as expected.

#7 Updated by Nyall Dawson over 5 years ago

Caused by 0addae5b783e541953522eabe178426e820bf852 - changing READ_BUFFER_SIZE_HINT to 0 (unlimited) fixes the issue (likely at resurrecting the original issue fixed by that commit (which I can't track -- it has the incorrect issue number of #1870, I suspect there's a missing digit here).
