[Qgis-user] Project read file error in QGIS 2.10.1

[Donovan Cameron]

There could be a backup copy to try out. Look in the same folder as the 
.qgs file and look for a file with the same name, but it ends in .gqs~ 
(with a tilde at the end). Try opening that file in QGIS to see if it 
has the same error.

You can also inspect it in a text editor to see that line (88516) and 
see what's up.

Sounds like the file just ends, and it expects some more info.
Maybe qgis crashed in the middle of a save and didn't get to write the 
rest of the project file. ie, it would be empty starting at line 88516.

If it can't be repaired (like removing an invalid character or space/tab 
if it was inserted by accident, but I doubt it) then another option is 
to restore it from all those backups you've been taking ;)
