These are separate layers with no duplicate points. I have tried it with several layers, in multiple projects. Only one gave results, and that was relatively quickly. I the coordinates in sqlite, there should be no distance of zero.
[later] As I wrote this, I decided to do some experimenting. I found something interesting. Normally I use GRASS for a lot of my analysis. I then in qgis, I just add GRASS vector or raster layers. It seems that is the problem. Occasionally a layer works (usually my wedge tombs), but mostly not. However, I tried some shape files that I down loaded, and it works fine. So, I exported the GRASS vectors to shape files and it works fine, even with layers that didn't work before. So the solution is to export from GRASS to ESRI Shape then open the shape file in qgis. BTW don't try to export a GRASS vector file from qgis. It doesn't seem to work. You have to export from GRASS. This observation didn't seem to have anything to do with the database. The GRASS vectors are mostly sqlite now, but some of my older ones are dbf. The problem seems to be the GRASS vectors themselves. Thanks Carson.
