Description

I opened #13191 because I think it is a QGIS issue (or Matplotlib).
The plugin uses the Matplotlib framework for plotting, therefore I'd exclude that it is a plugin issue.
In QGIS 64bit, saving a plot to png format in the Semi-Automatic Classification Plugin causes the crash of QGIS 64bit. It works in Linux.
In QGIS 32bit, saving a plot to jpg format gives the error "The _imaging C module is not installed".
I think it is related to Matplotlib dependencies.
Attached the minidump.

Thank you

I also get a minidump when I try to save a figure to png in the VoGIS-ProfilTool Plugin. It also uses the matplotlip.
Thanks

When running a python script in processing that involves matplotlib.pyplot in windows 2.8 LTS saving a plot as png causes a mini dump error. However running the same processing script in linux results in no error. But saving the plot as jpg in windows does not result in error.

shouldn't this be filed on the osgeo4w tracker (where the dependencies and python libraries for Windows are packaged)?

  • Status changed from Feedback to Closed
  • Resolution set to up/downstream

as far as I understand this could be an issue in matplotlib as is packaged in osgeo4w, if so please file a ticket in the osgeo4w bug tracker, if I'm wrong please reopen this ticket.

I was following this issue since two users of my plugin (PhysiocapAnalyseur) have experimented the same error "The _imaging C module is not installed" when writing a png with matplotlib .

I have reproduced this error directly on an old eeepc 32 bit with a fresh install of QGIS 2.12.2 (
in the Console Python:

import PIL
from PIL import _imaging

finish with "DLL load failed" on Windows 32 bits where

matplotlib.__version__

'1.2.1'

PIL.Image.VERSION

'1.1.7'

It's OK on linux & Windows 64 bits where

matplotlib.__version__

'1.3.1'

PIL.VERSION

'1.1.7'

I've create a ticket on OSGEO bug tracker #481
