Description

I'm running into an issue with the new rendering simplification option. With this enabled on a layer which has labels shown the log is showing a lot of GEOS exceptions:

Exception: IllegalArgumentException: Invalid number of points in LinearRing found 2 - must be 0 or >= 4
Exception: Unknown exception thrown

Happy to provide test datasets if required.

#5 Updated by Alvaro Huarte over 10 years ago

Hi Nyall, if you are testing a postgis layer, then these error comes from a bug in ST_Simplify function of postgis ( http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/ticket/1698 ). This bug collapses the geometries when the tolerance is too much big.

If you are using postgis, this patch fixes it:
