Try with geopackage (GPKG) driver #30

The ESRI gdb driver is really finicky on Windows - you can read only with OpenFileGDB, and write only with ESRIFileGDB.

The ESRI fgdb api driver should be read/write. But geopackage will be much easier to deal with.

ateucher commented 7 years ago

The ESRI fgdb doesn't like to read from certain CRS: Error opening \GBRSchP_Viner_20151105 (Invalid function arguments.). Skipping it. Might be due to unsupported spatial reference system. Using OpenFileGDB driver should solve it

Ah, right 'custom' CRS. I think all download service files are now strict EPSG:3005 but that can be a deal breaker. https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/4578
