Thanks a bunch for the attention to this!

In the meantime Windows users out there can grab the latest 5.4 version

Re: [GNC] Gnucash 5.5 Windows - included Net Worth Linechart report now crashes the UI

[John Ralls]

I've gotten it to crash for me in my VM. The stack trace says that it's 
crashing several dozen frames into the javascript engine. Unfortunately the 
MSYS build defaults to stripping the symbols so the trace doesn't tell me 
anything more. I'm rebuilding WebKitGtk with stripping turned off, but that 
will take a while... like a couple of days.

John Ralls

Re: [GNC] Gnucash 5.5 Windows - included Net Worth Linechart report now crashes the UI

[WR D]

To test this, I created a new file  (new account hierarchy which includes 
supplied asset and liability accounts) - put a couple of dummy asset entries 
(deposit cash to wallet and to the checking account).

I then open the default Net Worth Linechart - it was empty (did not crash) so 
then I went into the Config options and modified the date range to current 
date, and made sure all asset and liability accounts were selected.  When I 
tried to apply those changes, the whole UI crashed. 

So to me it looks like having any data in that report will crash the report and 
the entire UI (in Windows at least).

Regards,
Bill

This is the second thread about reports crashing on Windows. I'm not sure if 
that is relevant, but like the other thread, I just tested the Net Worth 
Linechart with a simple file using the flatpak in a Linux VM and it does not 
crash. It produces the Linechart as expected.

So this is either something Windows specific, or specific to your book.

That's been reported in https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=799165; 
https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=799168 reports a similar problem with 
the Vendor report.

Restarting GC after a crash _always_ shows the lock message. This is not
a bug in the program, so no fix is required. It would be nice if the
error message were easier to understand, and we had a long conversation
about that a year or so ago, but there wasn't agreement on the wording.

In any case, follow these directions:


And it's worth bookmarking the FAQ. If you check it before posting a
query, you may find you have an immediate answer with no need to wait

Re: [GNC] Gnucash 5.5 Windows - included Net Worth Linechart report now crashes the UI

[Anthony Vanson]

I also have Gnucash crashing in Window 11  in when opening an 
Expense/Income chart in Reports/Saved/Report Configuration.


Restarting Gnucash displays "Could not obtain the lock for C:" Task 
Manager does not show


Gnucash as running. "Open anyway" does open Gnucash as expected but 
attempting trying to open the above report, crashes again. Any fix please?


Cheers

Hi,

Installed Gnucash 5.5 for Windows.

I notice that running the included report Net Worth Linechart (under 
Assets & Liabilities) almost immediately crashes the UI - no message 
that I can see.  The LCK file is left open as well.


I found this out when I tried to run one of my saved report 
configurations which was based on this one.  I deleted the custom 
configuration and just tried to run the default one but see same 
behaviour.


This was not a problem under 5.4
