[Qgis-user] Add new layer to existing GeoPackage file

[Lene Fischer]

I have the same issue in QGIS 3.2.2– I can´t Export an open geopackage layer the same Geopackage database… And secondly I can´t select any features in the map view. Program says ‘No active vector layer I have no problem in selecting in the attribute table.
Can someone confirm this – then I´ll file a ticket.
Regards

I did not know that it was possible to drag the layer into the browser - that's very handy. But another way is to connect to the geopackage using DB Manager and then upload any additional layers.

Hi Rick,

Here's what I've done albeit this isn't as smooth as directly doing "save as" to the gpkg file...:
Save the file as another file type (or another gpkg file);
You can then drag layers from the Layers panel to the .gpkg file in the Browser panel.

I hope that helps!
Mike

Hi,

I want to use the “Save as” function on a GeoPackage layer to save a reprojected copy to a new layer in the same GeoPackage file. The function fails with an “Error: Cannot overwrite an OGR layer in place” message. The same thing happens if I try to save a subset of selected features from a layer to the same GeoPackage file. However, if I use the ogr2ogr function it works nicely. Is this the expected behavior? I am updating lab exercises for students in my beginning GIS class, and trying to switch from shapefiles to GeoPackage, so I am reluctant to send students to the command line early in their GIS training. I am working with QGIS 3.0.3 on Windows 10.
Regards, Richard
