Having trouble upgrading from QGIS 1.8, which ran just fine, to QGIS 2.8.
I'm running 64-bit Windows 7. After uninstalling QGIS 1.8, I've been trying for several days to install the 32-bit version of the QGIS 2.8 Standalone Installer.
The installer runs, but there's no program to start. The Start Menu folder is empty, and there is no qgis.bat
in the directory that I installed to (C:\qgis). Trying to run qgis-bin.exe
throws an error telling me that qgis_core.dll
can't be found. The postinstall.log
file has 15 instances of the error "System cannot find the path specified."
Any ideas?
