I highlight this comment because maybe it's somehow related. I'm running 5.4.1 Flatpak on Ubuntu 22.04.3 My main GnuCash data file (with many years of transactions and about 90 scheduled transactions) ALWAYS shows that it needs to save when I first open it. I suspect it could be a scheduled transaction, maybe a "zombie" one that's no longer used, but I haven't taken the time to track it down... I will note that as soon as I open the data file, the logfile is already created with essentially nothing in it. Here's an example from today where I opened the data file, looked for something and then closed it without saving. Pretty much always it starts with four START / END sequences at the top. mod trans_guid split_guid time_now date_entered date_posted acc_guid acc_name num description notes memo action reconciled amount value date_reconciled - = START = END = START = END = START = END = START = END = START D e711a885231d43c6b976d4d1e38b2c58 57776cb2c4ab4a498853932a0d7ec834 2024-01-11 19:20:49 2024-01-11 19:20:49 2024-01-11 10:59:00 n 0/1 0/100 1970-01-01 00:00:00 = END = START D 300783928b674543aeeb5950d8b03571 dacb85ebf8f84736a31adede7ad81967 2024-01-11 19:20:53 2024-01-11 19:20:53 2024-01-11 10:59:00 n 0/1 0/100 1970-01-01 00:00:00 = END = START D 1d97105a3b1a456d9ffe399965717d7d ae655ba0353f4b6a915b2dec1c67b6b0 2024-01-11 19:20:53 2024-01-11 19:20:53 2024-01-11 10:59:00 n 0/1 0/100 1970-01-01 00:00:00 = END = START D 2a91e27362804a5f87185ccd4c9c7f49 095fdbe44e8340b6bb31a91cf1f814d2 2024-01-11 19:20:53 2024-01-11 19:20:53 2024-01-11 10:59:00 n 0/1 0/100 1970-01-01 00:00:00 = END > - > Please remember to CC this list on all your replies. > You can do this by using Reply-To-List or Reply-All. > ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org 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.

It may be the book you are attempting to switch to has an issue, and not saving the current one. It works the second time I try. So, not the book. And yes, I've opened it multiple times after each crash. It isn't the same book each time either. Also, since it is prompting you to save, that tells me something was edited without a save. Perhaps manually save, then attempt to switch. At least that should determine if the crash is happening on save, or upon opening the other book. Oh, I definitely did work. The fact that when I restart GnC it doesn't complain about a lock file on the "old" book tells me that the save worked. The lock file was on the "new" book. ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org 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.
