Description
When I accidentaly try to add a raster file not supported by GDAL (e.g. something nonsensical like a mp3), qgis crashes with the error:
Error: GDAL Error 4: @/home/borys/foo.mp3' not recognised as a supported file format.
Segmentation fault
Looks like a trivial test is needed.
History
#1
Updated by Jürgen Fischer over 14 years ago
I can add unsupported file formats with 735f9e03 (SVN r13413) just fine.
Ok, I also get the error message, but it doesn't crash.
#2
Updated by Borys Jurgiel over 14 years ago
ok, I'll debug it farther
#3

I can replicate this under linux.
Open a GRASS raster and export it with the module r.out.ascii
Then try to add it to QGIS, under linux it will crashes with
GDAL Error 4: @/home/gio/Desktop/teste1' not recognised as a supported file format.
under windows it will show only
"is not a supported raster data source"
#4
Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 14 years ago
The crash happens (under linux) also when I try to open a mrsid raster in a installation where I have not enabled mrsid support.

Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 14 years ago
mails about my last two comments have not been sent by the system, so I'll bump this ticket.
#6
Updated by Paolo Cavallini over 14 years ago
Slightly different, but it could be the same: #2768
#7
Updated by Jürgen Fischer over 14 years ago
Still not reproducable. Which GDAL version is in use where it the crashes?
#8
Updated by Borys Jurgiel over 14 years ago
- Status changed from Open to Closed
- Resolution set to invalid
Now it works again with gdal 1.7, the problems were with 1.6. I'm closing the ticket as it seems to be related to gdal only.
#9
Updated by Borys Jurgiel over 14 years ago
Btw. Lutra, if you can confirm the crash with gdal 1.7, please reopen.
#10
Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 14 years ago
a quick test with Ubuntu 10.04 and qgis trunk and now it seems that does not crash anymore.
#11
Updated by Paolo Cavallini over 14 years ago
Confirmed, the bug is still there, both with GDAL 1.6 and 1.7
Error:
GDAL Error 4: @/home/paolo/Desktop/2010.ods' not recognised as a supported file format.
