Hi,

I'm not able to install this plugin on my Ubuntu machine. It shows the following error message:

The plugin is broken. Python said: 2

Could you please check the problem? I use QGIS official repository: http://qgis.org/debian-ltr xenial

Hi,

I develop in a windows environment currently. I'll setup a Ubuntu virtual machine and check out the issue

When opening qgis or installing the plugin, are you able to see the stack trace. There may be a button in the error message bar and it will have a window. image if you could send em the text there i should be able to find the problem

Sorry Dan - do not get such an option - just to un or reinstall.

I am able to replicate this issue. @Dan-Knott the detailed error message you are looking for is:

Note that dion is my username.

The reason is due to the file name aboutAusMapAlternative.ui - Linux is case sensitive whereas Windows is not. @Dan-Knott do you mind updating the filename? This fixes the problem on my end.

Thankyou Moult. When I renamed the file /.qgis2/python/plugins/AusMap-master/aboutAusMapAlternative.ui to include those capital letters it now works a treat ! (.qgis2 is located under my Ubuntu home directory)

anemdr commented 5 years ago

thanks Chris and Moult - this solved it for me too ! now on QGIS 2.18.17 on Ubuntu 18.04.
