Re: [GNC] Version 3

[John Ralls]

That means either that it started up and ran without any errors or that it 
crashed before it could generate any output.
Of course it also means that the one from 17 April isn't going to be of any use.

First, try installing 
https://code.gnucash.org/builds/win32/maint/gnucash-3.0-2018-04-17-git-3.0-75-g87f94abc8+.setup.exe.
If it still crashes, open a shell window (command or powershell is fine) and run
"c:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin\gnucash.exe" --debug

That will dump a lot of progress information that may help identify the 
problem. There may also be some output to the shell window that indicates the 
problem.

John Ralls

I just downloaded the dmg using the link at https://www.gnucash.org and it's 
very definitely GnuCash-3.0.

Maybe you didn't install it?  This isn't the App Store, you have to 
double-click on the downloaded file to mount the disk image then drag GnuCash 
from the disk image to your Applications folder (or wherever you want to put 
it; it doesn't care).

[GNC] Gnucash 3 unable to recognise SQLITE files on MAC OSX

[Peter Rowed via gnucash-user]

Hello,

My Gnucash v3.0 install cannot recognise my Gnucash 2.x SQLITE data base

I am running on Gnucash Version 3.0., Build ID git 3.0+(2018-04-01) on:

- MacOS High Sierra Version 10.13.14
- iMac Mid 2010

On starting Gnucash, get message:

- "No suitable backend was found for /Users/peterrowed/Data/HC.gnucash

where it is trying to open HC.gnucash which is my live Gnucash 2.6.18 file 
(SQLITE).

I have tried 2 other databases that give the same error. All 3 database are 
functioning normally with Gnucash 2.6.18

Ignoring the error and going to create a new data base and save (as SQLITE) I 
am only presented with the XML format in the drop down of the Save As tile.

I downloaded the dmg, opened it and dragged the Gnucash.app to the Applications 
directory.

in the 
[Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/lib](http://Gnucash.all/Contents/Resources/lib) 
there is a file called libsqlite3.0.dylib

However I have not changed my $PATH. I have never had to do that in the past.

Can you help me

Thanks

Regards Peter

Re: [GNC] Version 3

[Alan Schold]

One addendum to my last post. I notice there are no gnucash.trace 
entries between April 12 and 17. I'm very sure I updated to version 3.0 
on the 13th and returned to 2.6.xx on the 15th or 16th

[GNC] Downloading Mac Intel Version 3 gives me 2.6.19

[Glen Byram (Gmail)]

Hi All,

Probably just something I am doing but as per the subject, I download 
Gnucash-Intel-3.0-1.dmg but when I install it the Gnucash App says it is 
version 2.6.19.

Am I doing something wrong?

Cheers

Re: [GNC] New User Needs Set-Up Help

[Fross, Michael]

If you are trying to get rid of Liability, Assets, etc, than I suggest you
do not.  Take a look at the getting started guide.  It is very well
written, easy to read, and really helped me out.  You want to ensure you
get everything setup well as everything will build on top of that.  You can
change later, but it's often a very manual process.

Re: [GNC] New User Needs Set-Up Help

[David Carlson]

Jack,
Sorry to hear that you are having issues with Gnucash.  Right now is a bad
time for the developers because they have just made a major upgrade to the
program and the roll-out is not going smoothly.

However, I think that your issue is not related to that.  When you started
Gnucash the first time you started setting up some accounts and then
decided to start over.  you can just close GnuCash and start over.  If
Gnucash asks for a file name, close the program without saving.  If you
have already saved it, click File > New and you are starting a new file.
There is no need to to delete the software.

Be sure to save the file in some sub-folder of your documents where you can
find it eaasily and not be distracted by all the backup files that Gnucash
will be making as time goes by.  You can start over as many times as you
want, but once you get close, then fine tune by adding and deleting
accounts until you like your results.

[GNC] New User Needs Set-Up Help

[Jack Stewart]

I am a new GNUCash user and am having a lot of trouble getting 
started with it. I set up certain attributes and then am unable 
to modify or delete them. I don't have perfect foresight and 
sometimes need to delete or modify a prior set-up attribute.


One of the options in setting up a new file is to choose a 
category, I have chosen "A Simple Checkbook" which, in turn, 
pre-selects some asset, liability, equity, expense, and income 
accounts. These appear in a window which contains the checking 
account name. It is that window name which I want to edit.


Alternatively, how can I totally delete GNUCash from my Mac and 
start over?

No the environment file is

Or if you are really running gnucash from
c:\gcdev\gnucash-2.6.21a\gnucash\inst
it would be

Re: [GNC] Problems with Turkish Language

Hi,

The environment file is the gnucash-env, is it not?

It was:

--
#!/bin/sh
PATH="c:/gcdev/gnucash-2.6.21a/gnucash/inst/libexec/gnucash/overrides:${PATH}"
export PATH

GUILE_WARN_DEPRECATED="no"
export GUILE_WARN_DEPRECATED

exec "gnucash-env" "$@"

-

I made it (as per wiki):

--
#!/bin/sh
PATH="c:/gcdev/gnucash-2.6.21a/gnucash/inst/libexec/gnucash/overrides:${PATH}"
export PATH

GUILE_WARN_DEPRECATED="no"
export GUILE_WARN_DEPRECATED

LANG=en_EN
LANGUGE={LANG}

exec "gnucash-env" "$@"
-

Nothing happened.

Maybe someone has anything to add.

[GNC] GNC Attachments Unreliable [WAS Re: installation freezes]

I am reading this using Gmail, and to me it looked like the first message
DID have an attachment.

To investigate, I looked up that message in the list archive:

https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2018-April/076111.html

It very clearly says an attachment was "scrubbed," though it also includes
a link to the attachment, which IS the original screenshot I saw.

So I gather the first attachment was "scrubbed" AND archived, but when I
looked at it Gmail showed it. It did not show the image "inline" in the
message -- it was shown as an attachment.

Maybe some mail client miss the attachment link?

HOWEVER, when the OP re-sent the message with another image:

https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2018-April/076481.html

I see the "attachment was scrubbed" message appears twice, and in Gmail, I
see the attachment twice. But Derek apparently sees it once. I cannot look
at the second message and discern anything that explains such behavior.

SO I gather the behavior of Derek's mail client differs from Gmail somehow.
I cannot tell why attachments from the list behave differently, but I
thought I would bring it up in case this explains some other strangeness
people have noticed.

It’s the link I copied, and it’s “wiki” instead of “code” because for some 
reason that’s what Chrome remembers when I type “win32” in the address bar.

Does it matter for a short-term use like this? I can see worrying about it in a 
reference document because someday they might not be the same machine, but 
that’s not going to happen during the time Geert’s letter is relevant.

I don't know. I noticed John used this domain in the whole series of

Correct, those allow you to literally edit the customer information
(e.g. change the customer's address, etc).  It does not change the
customer tied to the invoice.

Arguably this is a bug.

No, they were intended to allow you to view/edit the *customer*, not
re-select the customer tied to the invoice.

This is not a bug.

I was catching up on ~2 weeks of email, so it's possible that I didn't
see it when I responded.  IIRC there were multiple threads on this same

Re: [GNC] gnucash not displaying all transactions

Just noticed after upgrading to 2.6.20 the following

In account view the transactions are no longer ordered in "Date
Posted" ascending order. In fact there appears to be no sorted
order. I'm expecting transactions going back to April 2015 and I do
see at least one transaction going back that far on the first
screen. I've observed this in two account views - there may be more.

As the transactions were in random date order. I elected to sort the
account view back into ascending date order.

After which all transactions before 02/06/2017 "appear" to have gone
missing. Including the transaction in 2015 that I observed earlier.

I then did Reports -> Account Report. All the missing transactions
were present.

The earliest transaction I could see in account view was
02/06/2017. Nothing earlier. Scroll bar at top, I could scroll down
about 6 times.

I clicked on this earliest transaction I could see  and amazingly the
scroll bar moved down and the earliest transaction was now
17/02/2017. I repeated this "Work around" several times until I got
back to my earliest date that I was expecting which was an Opening
Balance on 31/03/2015.

Then I noticed that the latest transaction was now 11/03/2016, I knew
I had transactions and already seen in this session transactions dated
upto 06/04/2018. Where have they gone?

I clicked on the latest transaction and amazingly the scroll bar moved
up and the latest transaction was now 24/06/2016.

What appears to be happening is that

I can scroll about 6 screens. But within those 6 screens gnucash has
filtered transactions to within a certain date range. The overlapping
date ranges I'm seeing are

31/03/2015  through  11/03/2016
21/08/2015  through  24/06/2016
27/11/2015  through  07/10/2016
11/03/2016  through  20/01/2017
24/06/2016  through  05/05/2017
07/10/2016  through  18/08/2017
20/01/2017  through  11/12/2017
05/05/2017  through  16/03/2018
02/06/2017  through  06/04/2018

This appears to be happening on accounts where there are lots of
transactions. I've been using gnucash since 2011 and this is the first
time I've observed this behaviour.

Have I missed the announcement about this new feature?

Has it always been a feature and I've failed to notice it before?

Is it a feature that I've stumbled across and switched it on without
noticing?

Any guidance will be greatly received.

Alex

Re: [GNC] [NO MORE TAGS] Version 3 configuration files

[Alen Siljak]

Yes, absolutely, same here. Thank you. 
I thought of the missing link 2 seconds after pressing the send button, as 
usual.

The page is here: https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations

and, as Geert noted, currently it is (more or less) just a copy/paste of his 
message with some formatting. Further effort is still needed to disect and 
arrange it into suggested sections. I'd also suggest extracting various 
explanations from other pages and moving them here. But that requires dedicated 
time for understanding the original meaning of the section and rephrasing it 
correctly (which I can probably afford only on a weekend).

Cheers!

The first message did not have an attachment.  This second one does (at

You can tell the maintainer it's not ready for gnucash 3.0 either should 
slackware consider upgrading to that release.

I think I know what you are going to say next

There are two --enable-register2 one of which is commented out.

I shall recompile without the first --enable-register2 and it that 
solves the problem I shall get back to the Slackware maintainer.

Ok. The register2 code is normally not enabled by default.

What configure options did you use ? And how are you starting gnucash ?

I've spotted what seems to be the "new" feature, well at least it is to me.

In the Accounts tab right click on an account, with lots of
transactions, to reveal a menu. Two options in this menu are "Open
Account" and  "Open Old Style Register Account".

If I use "Open Account" I see transactions from 09/06/2017 through
13/04/2018 with 86 transactions that can be scrolled.

If I use "Open Old Style Register Account" I now see all transactions
from 31/03/2015 through 13/04/2018 with all 308 transactions that can be
scolled

Also using "Open Account" auto-complete has a different feel as opposed
to what I'm used to with "Open Old Style Register Account"

If Double Clicking an account in the Accounts tab it opens a view in the
"New Style"

I'm sure I'll get to like the "New Style", but I would have expected all
308 transactions to be in the view just like when choosing the "Old
Style". I'm sure that at some time in the future the "Old Style" will
get dropped then it will become really worrying.

Just noticed after upgrading to 2.6.20 the following

In account view the transactions are no longer ordered in "Date
Posted" ascending order. In fact there appears to be no sorted order.
I'm expecting transactions going back to April 2015 and I do see at
least one transaction going back that far on the first screen. I've
observed this in two account views - there may be more.

As the transactions were in random date order. I elected to sort the
account view back into ascending date order.

After which all transactions before 02/06/2017 "appear" to have gone
missing. Including the transaction in 2015 that I observed earlier.

I then did Reports -> Account Report. All the missing transactions
were present.

The earliest transaction I could see in account view was 02/06/2017.
Nothing earlier. Scroll bar at top, I could scroll down about 6 times.

I clicked on this earliest transaction I could see  and amazingly the
scroll bar moved down and the earliest transaction was now 17/02/2017.
I repeated this "Work around" several times until I got back to my
earliest date that I was expecting which was an Opening Balance on
31/03/2015.

Then I noticed that the latest transaction was now 11/03/2016, I knew
I had transactions and already seen in this session transactions dated
upto 06/04/2018. Where have they gone?

I clicked on the latest transaction and amazingly the scroll bar moved
up and the latest transaction was now 24/06/2016.

What appears to be happening is that

I can scroll about 6 screens. But within those 6 screens gnucash has
filtered transactions to within a certain date range. The overlapping
date ranges I'm seeing are

31/03/2015  through  11/03/2016
21/08/2015  through  24/06/2016
27/11/2015  through  07/10/2016
11/03/2016  through  20/01/2017
24/06/2016  through  05/05/2017
07/10/2016  through  18/08/2017
20/01/2017  through  11/12/2017
05/05/2017  through  16/03/2018
02/06/2017  through  06/04/2018

This appears to be happening on accounts where there are lots of
transactions. I've been using gnucash since 2011 and this is the first
time I've observed this behaviour.

Have I missed the announcement about this new feature?

Has it always been a feature and I've failed to notice it before?

Is it a feature that I've stumbled across and switched it on without
noticing?

Any guidance will be greatly received.

Alex

Re: [GNC] [NO MORE TAGS] Re: Version 3 configuration files

[Geert Janssens]

It's a good idea, thank you. It looks to me though what's there is not what 
you describe below: an overview of directories (config and application data) 
separated by OS, GnuCash and Gtk (and then the different versions).

My mail you took is also the wrong information first. The explanation of the 
XDG stuff is the least relevant. The default directories  are much more 
interesting, followed by how they can be overridden. The fact this is based on 
the XDG specification is mostly background information in my opinion.

Regards,

Geert

Re: [GNC] gnucash not displaying all transactions

It looks like your version of gnucash got built with the unfinished and 
incomplete register2 code. This is by no means ready for production 
environments.

Where did you get your copy of gnucash from and also what's your operating

Re: [GNC] gnucash not displaying all transactions

[Alex via gnucash-user]

I've spotted what seems to be the "new" feature, well at least it is to me.

In the Accounts tab right click on an account, with lots of 
transactions, to reveal a menu. Two options in this menu are "Open 
Account" and  "Open Old Style Register Account".


If I use "Open Account" I see transactions from 09/06/2017 through 
13/04/2018 with 86 transactions that can be scrolled.


If I use "Open Old Style Register Account" I now see all transactions 
from 31/03/2015 through 13/04/2018 with all 308 transactions that can be 
scolled


Also using "Open Account" auto-complete has a different feel as opposed 
to what I'm used to with "Open Old Style Register Account"


If Double Clicking an account in the Accounts tab it opens a view in the 
"New Style"


I'm sure I'll get to like the "New Style", but I would have expected all 
308 transactions to be in the view just like when choosing the "Old 
Style". I'm sure that at some time in the future the "Old Style" will 
get dropped then it will become really worrying.

Just noticed after upgrading to 2.6.20 the following

In account view the transactions are no longer ordered in "Date 
Posted" ascending order. In fact there appears to be no sorted order. 
I'm expecting transactions going back to April 2015 and I do see at 
least one transaction going back that far on the first screen. I've 
observed this in two account views - there may be more.


As the transactions were in random date order. I elected to sort the 
account view back into ascending date order.


After which all transactions before 02/06/2017 "appear" to have gone 
missing. Including the transaction in 2015 that I observed earlier.


I then did Reports -> Account Report. All the missing transactions 
were present.


The earliest transaction I could see in account view was 02/06/2017. 
Nothing earlier. Scroll bar at top, I could scroll down about 6 times.


I clicked on this earliest transaction I could see  and amazingly the 
scroll bar moved down and the earliest transaction was now 17/02/2017. 
I repeated this "Work around" several times until I got back to my 
earliest date that I was expecting which was an Opening Balance on 
31/03/2015.


Then I noticed that the latest transaction was now 11/03/2016, I knew 
I had transactions and already seen in this session transactions dated 
upto 06/04/2018. Where have they gone?


I clicked on the latest transaction and amazingly the scroll bar moved 
up and the latest transaction was now 24/06/2016.


What appears to be happening is that

I can scroll about 6 screens. But within those 6 screens gnucash has 
filtered transactions to within a certain date range. The overlapping 
date ranges I'm seeing are


31/03/2015  through  11/03/2016
21/08/2015  through  24/06/2016
27/11/2015  through  07/10/2016
11/03/2016  through  20/01/2017
24/06/2016  through  05/05/2017
07/10/2016  through  18/08/2017
20/01/2017  through  11/12/2017
05/05/2017  through  16/03/2018
02/06/2017  through  06/04/2018

This appears to be happening on accounts where there are lots of 
transactions. I've been using gnucash since 2011 and this is the first 
time I've observed this behaviour.


Have I missed the announcement about this new feature?

Has it always been a feature and I've failed to notice it before?

Is it a feature that I've stumbled across and switched it on without 
noticing?


Any guidance will be greatly received.

Alex

Re: [GNC] Snap Package Manager

[Les]

After creating a new saved file, I tried installing GC 2.6.21 using
Snap.  When I entered "snap install gnucash" I received a message "no
gnucash found"! 

So much for snap, at least for now.

Regards,

Les

Re: [GNC] [NO MORE TAGS] Re: Version 3 configuration files

[cicko]

As Geert provided a nice summary of the configuration locations for v3, I
created a new page for this purpose and also added a few links to it at
places that refer to these locations.
The idea is to have this information at one place, separated by OS, GnuCash,
and GTK versions, as it can get confusing when seen over time.
Let me know please if this is a good idea and do feel free to move/adjust
other references and explanations of the config locations.
Cheers

Re: [GNC] Accounts columns currency

[Sébastien de Menten]

The default currency story has always puzzled me a bit in gnucash (a.o.
when working on piecash) but with your last emails John, now it makes sense
to me!

There is a "Book currency" (the ROOT account currency) that is used to
display the summary information at the bottom of the gnucash main window.
It is set once at book creation (the description of this choice in the 2nd
screen of the wizard is misleading as it says "choose the currency used for
new accounts", probably a documentation bug) and cannot be changed
afterwards via the GUI.
And there is the "default currency for new accounts", which is used when
creating new accounts in a book and can be changed via the gnucash
preferences.

Is that correct ? According to my tests (gnucash 2.6.21), yes but happy to
get an extra confirmation.
