I used the plugin successfully. But yesterday, after changing several buildings in JOSM. Import under qgis with the plugin does not work anymore. The buildings are in the layer point! Do you have any idea? thank you!

I can not post image because it requires 10 reputation.

Welcome to gis.SE. To make it easier for people to provide information that will help you, can you please tell us a bit more about your configuration and the problem? You can just click "edit" (above) to amend the question. Things you might like to include are details of the version of QGIS and the plugin that you are using (with links to where you got it), the platforms you are using it on (e.g. windows, mac, linux), a link to the data that you are trying to display (where in the world, for OSM), and a more complete description of the problem. If only an image will do, perhaps a link? – BradHards Feb 24 at 19:57
I can reproduce the behaviour, and it is platform-independent. The OpenStreetMap plugin is more or less broken, since it does work with 64-bit-node-ids. – Andre Joost Feb 24 at 20:38

The reason for the missbehaviour is that Openstreetmap have crossed the border of 2^31 nodes: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/64-bit_Identifiers, making it necessary for all programmers to change ids form int to 64-bit-int. I guess that is not yet implemented in the plugin. It will be rewritten for QGIS 2.0, so you have to wait until that is released.

Here an example of Mapnik map:enter image description here

and what the plugin renders: enter image description here

Sorry for my comment (10 10... It is painful) Hi, thank you for these hypothesis. I do not fully understand the first reason. By cons I edit with josm I sent to the server. And again I download qgis with the server. Can you check the last hypothesis? Finding the number of nodes? When QGIS version 2.0 you will get it? hub.qgis.org/wiki/quantum-gis/Release_Roadmap There is there an alternative? Thanks – user15493 Feb 24 at 17:01
Ok, forget my first hypothesis. I just looked up a few things I added last week, and they are not shown after downloading, but they are present in the mapnik map. There is still a large number of open tickets, and it may take to April or later. – Andre Joost Feb 24 at 20:32

A new version of the plugin is just around the corner, but probably only available for QGIS Master. – Andre Joost Feb 25 at 5:19

See osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/… for latest development. You can alternatively use the spatialite or GDAL import methods, as mentioned here: gis.stackexchange.com/questions/52586/… Both have no problem with 2^31-node-IDs. And please use comments instead of new answers. – Andre Joost Feb 25 at 20:07
I added a note about this problem near the top of the wiki page here. wiki.osm.org/QGIS_OSM_Plugin Feel free to delete that, or get me to, if this has been resolved. – Harry Wood Mar 3 at 10:44
Hi, I get the message "This post has NOT been accepted by the mailing list yet. " in forum "OSGeo.org › OSGeo Software and Data Projects › Quantum GIS › Quantum GIS - Developer". So, I did not answer. Can you do something for me ? – user15493 Mar 14 at 13:44
