Thanks Kalpesh, My problem is that the Ubuntu Studio 22.04 repositories only have GC 4.8, and I don't feel competent to install a Flatpak. Is there a repository I can add to my Software Sources to install later GC versions? If not, how about a snap? I would feel more comfortable with that than with a Flatpak, because snap is already baked in to Ubuntu Studio 22.04.

I use compressed XML version of file running on Windows 11 and frankly speaking I never had to revert back to previous version of data file for being corrupt. This history goes back to since 3.x version days. I do reconcile my accounts, including brokerage, on 6 to 7 month cycles and have found to match transactions downloaded so corruption is least of worries with GNC. ------------------------------ Message: 9 Date: Mon, 29 Aug 2022 16:25:23 +0200 From: "rsbrux" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [GNC] GC 3.11 crashes during "Check & Repair" Message-ID: <!&!AAAAAAAAAAAuAAAAAAAAAExfBJ/fSBxAqM7oRtz1TdsBAMO2jhD3dRHOtM0AqgC7tuYAAAAA [email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Many thanks to all who have offered help and advice. The following evidence strongly suggests a memory management problem to me: 1. I was able to perform "Check & Repair" on all accounts and subaccounts by dividing them up into smaller groups, saving, exiting and restarting GC in between. 2. If I tried to "Check & Repair" too much at once, GUI response would slow dramatically and GC would forget how to do things it had already done successful in the same session, e.g. saving, which, when attempted, produced messages like: >> * 22:08:34 WARN <gnc.gui> [gnc_builder_connect_full_func()] ggaff: could not find signal handler 'gnc_ui_file_access_response_cb'. << I now have what I think is a working and fully checked file in GC 3.11 for Windows and will now try upgrading it to 4.8 in Ubuntu Studio. My file does include Trading accounts, so Kalpesh's suspicions may be right. However, this raises the question of whether I need a newer version than 4.8 in Ubuntu Studio. ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list [email protected] To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
