I recently installed Gnucash 3.8. I'm having a problem with online banking 
transaction retrieval and can't troubleshoot further than I have.

Symptom: Actions -> Online Actions -> Get Balance works correctly. Actions -> 
Online Actions -> Get Transactions returns a single transaction with Amount = 
0, Date = 12/31/1969, Description = Unspecified.
The OFX log for Actions -> Online Actions -> Get Transactions DOES have the 
correct transactions in it - they just don't show up in the transaction 
matcher. That log is identical to the log I get under Gnucash 3.7, except that 
the OFXHEADER value under GC 3.7 is 100 and under GC 3.8 is 102.

Observation: In Tools -> Online Banking Setup -> Match Online Accounts to 
Gnucash accounts there are two differences between GC 3.7 and 3.8.
1. In GC 3.7 the "Online Banking Account Name" is of the form Bank Code 
bankcode (<bankname>), Account accountcode (). In GC 3.8 it is of the form Bank 
Code bankcode (), Account accountcode (). In other words, the Bank Name element 
is missing. Examples:
GC 3.7: Bank Code 123456789 (123456789), Account 0888877776 ()
GC 3.8: Bank Code 123456789 (), Account 0888877776 ()
I've verified that the bankName element is present in both the 
aqbanking/settings/account/account.conf and 
aqbanking/settings6/account/account.conf files.
2. In GC 3.7 the GnuCash Account Name gets populated when going through the 
Online Banking Setup screens and stays populated when I finish that process and 
then go back into Online Banking Setup (including after a restart of GnuCash). 
In GC 3.8 the GnuCash Account Name is populated when going through the Online 
Banking Setup screens, but it is blank if I finish that process and then go 
back into Online Banking Setup. In other words, I can't get that association to 
"stick".

Hypothesis: the "link" between the account definition in Online Banking Setup 
and the GC account is partially corrupted in GC 3.8. I say "partially" because 
the Get Balance action continues to work even though I can't see the associated 
GC account in Online Banking Setup. Only the Get Transactions action is broken. 
I can't tell where that "link" is stored but I assume it's in the .gnucash file 
itself; I can't see any evidence of it in the old (GC 3.7) aqbanking account 
definition files in aqbanking/settings/account/account.conf files, nor in any 
other files in that folder.
I appreciate any help / insight from the group.
Derek
