So What changed?

I don't know

Maybe try the original Irish Grid 29902 coordinates but remove everything after the decimal point. In other words use integer X-Y values. (You probably don't need precision down to 50 cm. anyway)


Yes I tried this... but QGIS still crashes.
( cc'ed to the qgis-user list...)

So just to summarize:
You have QGIS 1.4.0 on Mac OSX 10.5.8.
You import a text file with the delimited text plugin and X-Y coordinates in Lat-Lon, then export to shapefile, choosing EPSG:4326 as the CRS. This works OK. Then you import a second text file where the X-Y coords are in the Irish Grid, and you try to export to a shapefile, choosing the EPSG:29902 CRS and QGIS crashes.
It that about right?

Thanks Micha!!! It works!!

Hi Micha,

Thanks for your response, I have provided a small subset of my data below.... 'X' is entered the X field and 'Y' is entered in the Y field when creating a layer from a delimited text file After entering the data I click on "layers" option and choose "save as shape file" and i click on the Irish Grid reference "ESPG ID 29902". Then QGIS automatically shuts down

Worked fine for me with QGIS 1.5 on Fedora. Next step I guess is to approach William Kyngsburye, http://www.kyngchaos.com/, maintainer of the Mac OSX binaries, and ask if he can locate the problem. (I'm assuming you installed his frameworks and binaries.)

Have you tried with Lon-Lat coordinates in EPSG:4326? Do you get the same shutdown of QGIS?

Hi all,

I am having difficulty saving point data as a shapefile .... QGIS automatically shuts down. The steps I have taken are given below. Any advice is greatly appreciated, thanks


I am working with QGIS version 1.4.0 Enceladus on a Mac OS X version 10.5.8

1) I created a .csv file from the .xls file, then loaded the .csv
file into QGIS with the "Add delimited text layer" plugin

2) save the result as a shapefile by clicking on "layers" option and choosing "save as shape file" and i click on the Irish Grid reference "ESPG ID 29902".

Then QGIS automatically shuts down.

In order to isolate the problem (Mac OS or the data) would you mind to supply a subset of your data so we can test on other platforms?
