Hi, I have a View in MS SQL containing some point data (263 points) and a int64 primary key (qlonglong data type in QGIS), which I have loaded to QGIS (CRS: 4326, no OTF-projection). When I zoom out, QGIS crashes at a certain zoom level. Zoom to layer crashes every time I try. This happens

Hi, I ran into the same issue… The package name is now «qgis-server» (and no longer «qgis-mapserver”) I think it changed from version 2.4 to 2.6… See: http://hub.qgis.org/projects/quantum-gis/wiki/qgis_server_tutorial Cheers Stefan From: qgis-user-boun...@lists.osgeo.org

In order to define the path to R in Processing we had to use the browse-buttons (the one with the three dots which appears when you double click the path-field). Otherwise entered values / changes were not written to registry/QGIS.ini (using OSGeo4W). Maybe it is the same for GRASS provider...

Did you check the coordinate system of your layer? Maybe the default in your QGIS settings is WGS84 and your layer is projected but lacks coordinate reference information (e.g. a .prj file). Then the default CRS is used for your layer (WGS84 which is limited to +/-90 / +/-180) and the e.g. UTM
