Is this still and issue. Can we remove the blocker tag.

#2 Updated by Etienne Tourigny almost 11 years ago

I have updated to latest master and removed my .qgis2 folder, and the issue still persists. This should be a blocker, because an error msg like this should not appear on startup and should be fixed (whatever the problem is).

actually, seems the problem dissapeared after running a second time, so I will close the bug.

seems it has come back... am I the only one getting this?

#5 Updated by Etienne Tourigny almost 11 years ago

the following patch resolves the issue. Somehow my qgis.db was left without the vw_srs view.
