Download Vector Tiles always crashes [Windows] #62325

Description

What is the bug or the crash?

Upon attempting to use the "Download Vector Tiles" algorithm from the Processing Toolbox, independently of parameters supplied, it crashes with the following error message:
Windows fatal exception: access violation

The python stack trace points to: dlg.exec() in ProcessingPlugin.py, though I doubt that helps much at all

The C++ stack trace points to:

QBitArray::QBitArray :
QgsMeshEditingDelaunayTriangulation::text :
QgsProcessingAlgorithm::runPrepared :
QgsProcessingAlgRunnerTask::run :
pdal::PointView::layout :
QgsTask::start :
QThreadPoolPrivate::reset :
QThread::start :
BaseThreadInitThunk :
RtlUserThreadStart :

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Create a Vector Tile Service Connection pointing to the URL: "https://basemaps.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World_Basemap_v2/VectorTileServer" and with a min and max zoom values of 1 and 2, respectively (though any zoom value should cause this crash)

  2. Add a Vector Tile Layer based on the earlier Connection

  3. Select "Download Vector Tiles" in the Toolbox

  4. Select:

  • Input Layer: The previously added layer
  • Extent: Calculate from Layer -> Previously added layer
  • Max. Zoom Level: 1 or 2 (or whatever you selected before)
  • Tile Limit: 100 (should work, for zoom level 2)
  • Output: Doesn't matter, temporary file or not, it doesn't work
  1. Press "Run" and wait a short while

  2. Crash
