HTTP fetch error message

[saemiw]

On Android 5 tablets running QField 1.3.4 I regularly get the following error message "HTTP fetch..." v:/QField is the file path where our "mother project" is saved. The project file that is triggering this error on QField was however set offline with QFieldSync. I don't see why it should want to access this directory (but I also have no understanding what http fetch is/does).

Only on Android 5 @saemiw ? Can you provide a demo project (or does it occur with the one we already have to reproduce the former crash?)

Thanks for reporting this bug. Bugs are often fixed on a voluntary basis (see sustainability initiative). This still often takes time and we need to prioritize bugs, so some may slip through the cracks. If you need this bug to be fixed in a more timely manner, get in touch.

Yes only Android 5 and yes you should already have such a project. Let me know if you need one again...

You can reproduce the issue in this way: 1) 1a) Create a new template-project in QGIS with a sample-layer and configure attribute form as "drag and drop designer". 1b) ->Export it to local disk 1c) ->copy it to mobile device 1d) ->open it there 1e) -> no issue 1f) ->CLOSE qfield

2a) Open template-project from before (1a) 2b) ->change attribute-form to "provide ui-file" 2c) ->select a ui-file on a server (NOT local file like "c:") (im my case "K:/GIS/QGIS-Projekte/König/temp/test_44_form.ui" (while K: is representing the server //nt230dbg) as "provide ui-file" 2d) ->change attribute form as "drag and drop designer" (path setting from 2c) will be disabled) 2e) ->Export project to local disk 2f) ->copy project to mobile device 2g) ->open it there 2h) -> warning message 2i) ->CLOSE qfield

3a) Take project from 2a 3b) ->change attribute-form to "provide ui-file" 3c) ->manually remove path to server from widget 3d) ->change attribute form as "drag and drop designer" (path setting from 2c) will be disabled) 3e) ->Export project to local disk 3f) ->copy project to mobile device 3g) ->open it there 3h) -> no issue

I think QGIS stores unused links to ui-file. In case of a link to a server this will cause the errors within QFIELD - altrough path to ui-file is not used at all (because its a drag and drop attribute form-setting).
