I've tripped across a problem trying to run a hbci enabled version of gnucash. This problem recently appeared when I updated from using openhbci to openhbci2. The error occurs when gnucash runs finance-quote-check and then waits for the process to finish. I consistently get the following errors at this point:
===== 5:2004/03/04 15-11-52:(null):process.c: 129: No information about process "17568" available Backtrace: In unknown file: ?: 0* [kill-program] In /opt/gnucash/devel/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/price-quotes.scm: 242: 1* (and program (let ((pid #)) (close-input-port (cadr program)) ...)) 243: 2 (let ((pid (car program))) (close-input-port (cadr program)) ...) In /opt/gnucash/devel/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/process.scm: ... 98: 3 [loop ... 98: 4* [waitpid 17568 3] /opt/gnucash/devel/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/process.scm:98:21: In procedure waitpid in expression (waitpid pid waitopt): /opt/gnucash/devel/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/process.scm:98:21: No child processes ===== Gnucash then summarily quits. Thanks to a suggestion from Derek, I tracked the problem back to the GWEN_Process_ModuleInit() function in gwenhywfar-0.9.6 (a prerequisite of openhbci2). This function installs a signal handler to catch the SIGCHLD signal, apparently overriding the guile signal handler. Guile doesn't accept this situation, thus the problem. If one of the hbci developers on the list would work with the gwenhywfar developers to resolve this problem, I would appreciate it. David
