Hi berndv, I thought we might be getting somewhere with your last suggestion, I made the changes you mentioned and the SAGA NextGen tools duly appeared. I then tried to run the SAGA Simple filter on a one-metre DTM, but this failed with the message 'Unknown option 'MODE''. This is a step forward o

Hi Nick, I think, there was just not enough interest to develop the plugin further. Last commit was 2 years ago. The general problem with SAGA seems to be, that its developers do not care much about other software trying to interface to it, and permanently change stuff without notice, so QGIS pe

The SAGA NexGen plugin is flagged as 'Experimental', which I think means 'it may not work for you' - this is fair enough. I see that SAGA 2.2.5 is still in the repository so I think I'll do away with Version 7.3.0 in the short term and fall back on the older version, calling it from the Processing

Hi Nick, just checked my provider settings: SAGA Folder is simply usr/bin I can faintly rember me sitting there trying every possible combination. Problem: I never takes notes :( And my brain is in a accelerated decline ... I did a short  test with one algo and i was running without complaints.

Thanks for this, berndv. In the 'provider.py' file for SAGA NextGen I have tried changing the required version to 7.3 but this doesn't make any difference. I think it's probable that the plugin really does need a valid 'SAGA folder' to be set - and it's this that's got me stumped at present. All s

Hi Nick, found this quiet old conversation: There is a QGIS plugin for QGIS higher than 3.4 that works with SAGA 7.2. It is called SAGA nextgen. It works as is under Windows with SAGA 7.3, and I'm pretty sure it would work in Ubuntu if you change the provider.py file so that REQUIRED_VERSION =

Ubuntu 20.04, QGIS 3.14.16, SAGA 7.3.0 In QGIS I lean quite heavily on SAGA algorithms, which worked fine until I upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 (focal). This forced an upgrade of SAGA to Version 7.3.0. Trying to use this from the Processing Toolbox resulted in a warning and problems, so I installed the
