Tab File output Error: TABPolyline Geometry Error

Hi,

 

I am trying to convert a roads.shp to a .tab, but am getting the below error. Does anyone know why/what i can do to correct it?

 

Source of the data: https://mapcruzin.com/free-israel-country-city-place-gis-shapefiles.htm

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @LDP616 

 

The problem seems to be that the tab format doesn't accept lines with no points.  osm_id 37153228 is the only object in the file with 0 points.  Split all the objects to points, remove the ones with 0 points and the rest flow through fine.

Note that I didn't include the shp file, because of it's size
