Hi Jeroen,

can you type "set" to list environment variables that are defined, both in a terminal from QGIS or the Windows prompt, (possibly redirecting to file, like "set > env_vars.txt"), and compare the differences

Even

Hi,

I use QGIS on Windows10 which comes with GDAL. The latest QGIS LTR (3.40.14) uses GDAL 3.12.1

In QGIS I can open a terminal (browser panel, rightclick a folder and select Open in Terminal) and immediately use ogr2ogr to convert a WFS to a geopackage, because QGIS has altered the path to include the GDAL directory

However, with some WFS services ogr2ogr throws an error. I have no trouble using those WFS services in QGIS.

For instance, this one I can’t convert:

ogr2ogr -f gpkg test.gpkg WFS:"https://service.pdok.nl/kadaster/bestuurlijkegebieden/wfs/v1_0?"; Provinciegebied -overwrite -nln provincie_kadaster

But this one I can:

ogr2ogr -f gpkg test2.gpkg WFS:"https://map.data.amsterdam.nl/maps/gebieden"; wijk -overwrite -nln amsterdam_wijk

The first WFS is part of a large Dutch open data organization and depending on which WFS  I choose from them I see two different errors:

ERROR 1: XML parsing of GML file failed : no element found at line 27, column 31065   (or different numbers)

Or

ERROR 1: XML parsing of GML file failed : unclosed token at line 555, column 9

I was able to compare a debug on with someone who was able to convert the WFS to a gpkg and this part was surely different

VSICURL: Read attempt beyond end of file

VSICURL: Read attempt beyond end of file

After this, the error appeared.

To make things more complicated:

When I open a Windows Prompt (terminal) and set a path to the GDAL directory in QGIS using set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\QGIS 3.40.14\bin

I can also use ogr2ogr.

Interestingly, now I can convert both WFS datasets to gpkg.

What could be different with the QGIS Terminal setting from a Windows Prompt setting with the path set that would explain the errors?

What might be different in both WFS services that triggers these errors?

Kind regards,

Jeroen Hovens
