Now I can reproduce the mentioned bug.

1. I create a mapcomposition with some layers an a legend
2. Save the project
3. reload the project and the following error occurs:
... error occured while parsing element at line 349 column 56 ...

The error is caused by the <vectorlegend_6> ... </vectorlegend_6> of the file test.qgs. When I delete this block I'm able to load the project and the legend is deleted from my mapcomosition. Take a look at the attached file test.qgs.

The problem seems to be with the '=' character on line 349. This is probably conflicting with XML's use of '=' as a reserved character.

Fixed in SVN .

There were several characters that the XML didn't like in a node name, but which postgres layers had in them. Layer ID's are now forced to consist only of letters, characters and underscores.

#6 Updated by Gavin Macaulay - about 18 years ago

PS. Existing projects can be fixed by finding the <layers> line, then editing any subsequent <layer_...> lines and replacing the =, (, and ) characters with an underscore (_).
