I have identical folders for Gnucash files on a local disk and Onedrive.
Opens fine from local. But attempting to open from Onedrive (for
testing, files marked to always be available on the computer, so they
should be identical in access time to the main files on the local disk;
they don't take up a lot of space so I may leave it that way on the
laptop if I can get Gnucash to open them again) produces "Unknown I/O
Error (1002)" from Gnucash 5.14. Literally, it was working yesterday. It
occurs no matter how I try to open the file - double click from File
Explorer, or open from within Gnucash. And, if I copy the files back to
a new folder on a local drive, it works fine. So what's the story here?
I don't recall seeing any updates to Onedrive in the last day or so, and
have been using 5.14 successfully with Onedrive for several weeks otherwise.
Note1: my accounts on both the local machine and at Onedrive are listed
as having "Full Control" for the .gnucash file.
Note2: this occurs for ALL .gnucash files in Onedrive, not just my main
one. So the running incremental backups GC makes are also inaccessible
with the same error code. Files for other applications open and save
normally using Onedrive.
Is there a list of Gnucash errors in the docs somewhere? I did some
light searching and didn't find anything.
The only current workaround seems to be to manually copy the Onedrive
folder to a local disk outside of the backup system tied to Onedrive and
work there, then manually copy everything back when done so the other
computer can download it. File copies in File Explorer work normally, no
errors.
