Hi Geert,
I have done as you suggested and I got this window along with the usual ones
The trace file has this
* 14:26:19 WARN <gnc.gui> error reading group Page 1 key ShowUnused:
Key file does not have key “ShowUnused” in group “Page 1”
* 14:26:31 WARN <gnc.query> [xaccQueryAddAccountMatch()] acct_list has
NULL account
That second message appears in other trace files and looks like I have a
null account. The first message is new.
The program seems to be working OK. Is it safe for me to continue with
this version or should I revert to the released v3.1?
Let me know if you would like me to try anything else.
John

The trace indeed has no messages related to migration. In retrospect it
couldn't have :(
The migration code itself runs before logging is set up. So any message
printed during migration would be sent to the console, but on windows that is
not available.
There are several other clues though the migration didn't run:
- no pop-up window summarizing the migration results
- missing saved report configurations
- warnings about missing .gcm file
I dug into the code and found I already fixed one issue that would prevent the
migration right after the release of gnucash 3.1. Can you retry the procedure
with a recent nightly build ? For example this one;
https://code.gnucash.org/builds/win32/maint/gnucash-3.1-2018-06-18-git-3.1-171-g1e3a44500+.setup.exe
Make a backup of your active gnucash book, install this version, move c:\Users
\<username>\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash out of the way and start gnucash. Do you
see a migration summary window in this case ?
Regards,
Geert

I found it at this path
"C:\Users\<username>\.gnucash"
Gnucash 3.1 is supposed to migrate from this directory to
c:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash
I don't know why this didn't happen for you.
in it I found this file
"C:\Users\<username>\.gnucash\saved-reports-2.4"
which looked a bit suspicious. In it I found Scheme code for my missing
reports.
Another folder I found in my search was
"C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash"
Now this Roaming folder often holds configuration information on Windows.
It
also had recently dated files in it so was probably related to my recent
installation of GnuCash 3.1.
This directory should be generated as part of the first-time run of gnucash
3.1.
Can you do an experiment to help evaluate the migration step ?
Can you
1. quit gnucash if it's still running
2. rename
"C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash"
to
"C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash.bkp"
That moves it out of the way of gnucash.
3. Start gnucash
=> Does it report a migration of meta data ?
4. Quit gnucash
5. Locate the most recent trace file [1] and post it here.
I copied the above mentioned saved reports file to
"C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash\saved-reports-2.4"
and next time I opened GnuCash my reports had returned.
Indeed. You manually completed the migration. I would like to figure out
why
this didn't happen in the first place.
Thanks,
Geert
-----------------------------------------------
Geert -
Thanks for the suggestion - trace file contents below. I didn't see any
note about migration of metadata, and Gnucash did not migrate my old
reports or lots. The manual migration works, however. Thanks for the
responses!

Ethan
