Problem

The new template crashes when the 'open composer' button is pressed.
The new template works fine when the ''open pdf' button is pressed.
Related to #744

Operating environment

Proposed Solution

Make the composer happy :)

Expected Outcome

Users can use composer with an existing template to add or modify map elements

So, I've been playing around with this issue, and it only appears on windows.

This issue comes exactly at this line: https://github.com/AIFDR/inasafe/blob/master/safe_qgis/report/map.py#L328

composer_map.setNewExtent(square_extent)

If we comment that out, there is no crash dumped issue. Hmm, I'm not sure why because the square_extent is actually fine.. still looking at it

[akbargumbira]

HI @alexbruy, have you figured this out? I'm still not figuring it out. I was observing the extent and nothing suspicious with that. I tried it on QGIS Master d647354 (yesterday) and QGIS 2, both give the same crash issue, but the thing is its behavior on the crash is different.

On QGIS Master, when we click the 'Open Composer' button, it will perfectly show the composer with all its elements. The problem comes when we minimize/go to other window and reopen the composer window. While on QGIS 2.0 the problem comes right away after the composer window shows up..

Tested here under windows 8 with composer_map.setNewExtent(square_extent) commented out and I still get a crash.

Maybe this has something to do with #785 ? Just a rough guess..

[akbargumbira]

Yes, thanks @mach0. I deleted that part manually from .qpt file and it's not popping up the crash

It seems we have found the underlying cause (thanks @akbargumbira !) and have filed an upstream ticket with QGIS (http://hub.qgis.org/issues/9578), as well as implemented a work around for the issue. Thanks for your patience and for the issue report @Charlotte-Morgan .
