QGIS & GeoTIFF clipping Error “-srcwin 5897 137 0 0 falls outside raster size of 11083x4158 or is otherwise illegal.”

Question

I'm trying to clip a GeoTIFF file and unfortunately I'm getting the following

Error "-srcwin 5897 137 0 0 falls outside raster size of 11083x4158 or is otherwise illegal." 

From another post here I found out my projection was not set correctly. I did set the projection by clicking CRS status window at the bottom right and selecting Enable "on the fly" and WGS 84 and then apply. I'm still getting the same error. Any idea how to fix that ?

Answer 1

Enabling on the fly reprojection only affects how the data is displayed in the map window. It does not affect analysis. You need to use appropriate coordinates in your Geotif's coordinates.
