If you have a line feature and use the "Create Points Along Lines" and leave the default output to be [Create Temporary Layer] the tool fails with:
_
The following layers were not correctly generated.
output
You can check the log messages to find more information about the execution of the algorithm_

If I check the log:
_
Error loading result layer:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/qgis/python/plugins/processing/gui/Postprocessing.py", line 75, in handleAlgorithmResults out.name))
File "/usr/share/qgis/python/plugins/processing/tools/dataobjects.py", line 199, in load + '
Check the processing framework log to look for errors')
RuntimeError: Could not load layer: memory:
Check the processing framework log to look for errors_

If I set it to save to a file - it runs.

this seems to be fixed in master. Can you confirm it happens just with that algorithm, or with all of them when using temp layers?
