Are you sure you have no features or are they just it the wrong place? Right Click on the layer and select zoom to layer extent. Check your CRS and make sure you have CRS on the fly activated. Make sure your option don't automatically assign the project or default CRS layer as your layer does not have one yet.</p><p dir="ltr" class="">Nicolas Cadieux M.Sc.<br class="">

This is relatively straightforward in QGIS master:<br class="">
<br class="">
- import your CSV file<br class="">
- right click the CSV layer, and choose "Save as"<br class="">
- change format to "ESRI Shapefile". Choose the correct CRS for your<br class="">
coordinates.<br class="">
- expand out the "Geometry" group and change "Geometry type" from<br class="">
"Automatic" to "LineString"<br class="">
- click OK, the new LineString shapefile (with all null geometries)<br class="">
will be added to the project<br class="">
- now, you need to create the geometries. This is done through the<br class="">
field calculator.<br class="">
- tick "update existing field"<br class="">
- change the field to "<geometry>"<br class="">
- enter the expression:<br class="">
'make_line(make_point("x1","y1"),make_point("x2","y2"))' (but replace<br class="">
x1, y1, ... with the correct columns names from your original CSV<br class="">
file)<br class="">
- click OK. Done!<br class="">
