QuickMapServices doesn't work for me?

[yaninad288 (Yanina Duarte)]

I’m literally new to qgis, just downloaded the 3.44 version for windows, i was following a tutorial on how to do a positive and negative space map with QGIS using the QuickMapServices plugin, but as u can see in the image it isn’t working, the same alert comes up every time i try to make the layer, and it just simple doesn’t download it (the ´´proxy set: no prox set´´ messsage just stays like that), i have try uninstalling and installing it again, i have tried different sizes for my map (because the size i need is very big so i thought maybe that was the problem) but nothing works and i wasn’t able to find help in other places, so please help me if somebody is familiar with this plugin and can tell me what’s the problem

Hello! Is this tutorial public, could you share it? To understand your steps better.
The error looks quite exotic, never saw it.

You can also try to work with latest QGIS 4

is this one right here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLtwatNSyo0
i will try with the 4 version, thank u

[yaninad288 (Yanina Duarte)]

nope, the exact same thing with qgis 4

[ekazakov (Eduard Kazakov)]

I think it is related not to QMS, but to network in general.
What do you have here in settings?

What if try to add services you need manually?

1. Find it here https://qms.nextgis.com/
2. Open service page
3. Copy URL from “Service info” block
4. In QGIS go to the “Layer - Add layer - Add XYZ layer”, paste this URL and press Add

[yaninad288 (Yanina Duarte)]

doesn’t seem to work either
the link i used: https://mt1.google.com/vt/lyrs=s&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}

[ekazakov (Eduard Kazakov)]

Could you please show window where you paste URL in QGIS (Data Source Manager - XYZ)

[yaninad288 (Yanina Duarte)]

[ekazakov (Eduard Kazakov)]

What if create a “New” named connection there? And add it.

[yaninad288 (Yanina Duarte)]

that did work but still the same problem from the beginning

[ekazakov (Eduard Kazakov)]

Ok, so QMS plugin is not the reason of the error.

I see the map added to your project. If you close the error window, it appears again?

[yaninad288 (Yanina Duarte)]

no, it just stays like this and never download it

[ekazakov (Eduard Kazakov)]

But map tiles appear.

What I see on the screenshot, is that OSMDownloader plugin is installed and active, and I can find references that it causes such “proxy” problems. What if you uninstall OSMDownloader plugin, will this proxy error appear?

[ekazakov (Eduard Kazakov)]

QuickMapServices only allows you to connect and display public basemap (satellite in your case), and it seems that it works. It doesn’t download OSM data.

If OSMDownloader is the error reason, we can’t help, it’s not our plugin and we don’t control it. You can use NextGIS OSMInfo plugin as an alternative for getting OSM data, or purchase data as a project at data.nextgis.com

[yaninad288 (Yanina Duarte)]

yes

[yaninad288 (Yanina Duarte)]

okay, thank u
