I'm using QGIS 2.6.0. I'm trying to run various algorithms such as "SAGA/Shapes-points/remove duplicates" & "SAGA/Shapes-Grid/Add grid values to points" through the sextant toolbox.
When I run these algorithms on a shapefile (initially created via the QGIS option "Create a Layer from a Delimited Text File" and then saving the output as a shapefile), it works fine. However, if I create a copy of the shapefile through QGIS (i.e. using Save As) even with no changes (e.g. same coordinate system) and try to run these algorithms using the same input parameters, it fails. An example of the error that appears is as follows:
"Oooops! The following output layers could not be open
Result: C:\Users\stephen\AppData\Local\Temp\processing\bf494593f4a44905bb4ec0bbe0a7f847\RESULT.shp
The above files could not be opened, which probably indicates that they were not correctly produced by the executed algorithm
Checking the log information might help you see why those layers were not created as expected
This algorithm requires SAGA to be run. A test to check if SAGA is correctly installed and configured in your system has been performed, with the following result:
SAGA seems to be correctly installed and configured"
The log output is as follows:
"SAGA execution console output

Just wondering whether anyone has come across a similar problem and if they have found a solution?
