the versions. While the SOSI plugin compiled against GDAL 1.10 does not show up in QGIS 2.3 (build against GDAL 1.11), GDAL 1.11 itself has no problems with that plugin either.

</div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hmm. I had no issues opening that file up on Mac [0]. The only other thing I can think of is to ensure the GDAL_DRIVER_PATH is set in the environment, so the plugins can be found at run-time by QGIS/GDAL. I
don't think that should be an issue for an OSGeo4W install, though. To be sure, you can try setting it in Options -> System -> Environment and see if that helps.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">If the plugin wasn't found by GDAL, then the file filter for SOSI would not show up in QGIS's file browse dialog's combobox for opening a vector layer. If you choose *.* (all files) and try to load a .sos file, then it will throw the invalid
source error in the message bar, because GDAL never loaded the plugin.<u></u><u></u></p>
