Clip in QGIS 2.4.0 resulting in empty output files


I'm seeing the same problem to Clip or Intersection tool - QGIS giving empty files trying to use the Clip tool since upgrading to QGIS 2.4.0, but have not been able to fix the problem based on the responses there. I tried creating a simple example to ensure was not my data but am seeing the same problem.


I have a series of points & a polygon. I want to retain those points within the polygon only. Example of points and polygon


I use Vector -> Geoprocessing Tools -> Clip


Commands used



This results in an empty attribute table.


Options I've tried:



  • I have tried switching the Input and Clip layer in case I had these round the wrong way

  • Disable on the fly reprojections (confirmed the layers do overlap, they are in the same projection)

  • Checked through Properties to confirm both layers have CRS EPSG:4326 - WGS 84

  • I left this simple example running for approximately 40 minutes with no change in outcome in case I was just not leaving enough time (in previous versions this was successful in a short time span).

  • I have tried using other Geoprocessing tools to see if it is just clip - I do not receive any output with any of them.
