Hi Paul,

I do not know about QGIS crashes but I was bitten by GeoPackages on Network File systems.

We collected some hints regarding GeoPackage in the GDAL/OGR Trac Wiki
https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/UserDocs/SQLite

Regarding writing to GeoPackages/SQLite we found the following:
The "[...] locking mechanism might not work correctly if the database file is kept on an NFS filesystem. This is because fcntl() file locking is broken on many NFS implementations. You should avoid putting SQLite database files on NFS [...]."(​SQLite FAQ)

cheers

Hi,

Is anyone else getting occasional deadlocks when using GeoPackages in the Long Term Release of QGIS?

We are using them over a Windows network so there are multiple users trying to access the same GeoPackage files. It all seems fine and two or more can open the file to look at but when someone edits it you sometimes hit a deadlock where none of the QGIS applications will shut down.

The only resolution we have found is to physically switch off the computers by holding the power button until the locks are released.

In theory I’d say that might be a pretty serious bug but I’m not sure how to replicate the issue consistently and don’t want to raise a bug ticket unless others can replicate the behaviour.

Thanks,

Paul
