If you still have a copy of your user prefs for 2.6 the .gcm file in the
books folder contains the configurations for any reports that were open
when the data file was last closed. This could help to create similar
reports in the new format.

I'm trying to edit and/or delete existing reports, not (yet) create new
ones. Or do you mean the trace file? In the command string I used
--logto=$HOME/gnucash.trace, and that file was created. It just had no
contents.

Running "/usr/bin/flatpak run --branch=stable --arch=x86_64
--command=gnucash --file-forwarding org.gnucash.GnuCash
--logto=$HOME/gnucash.trace" in a terminal window invoked GC fine.
Opening the saved reports item, then trying to delete a report results
in this output in the terminal window:
Ok, the branch specification is probably important.
You can try as follows:
/usr/bin/flatpak run --branch=stable --arch=x86_64 --command=gnucash --file-
forwarding org.gnucash.GnuCash --logto="path-to-log-to-or-stdout"
My mail client splits this line up, but the command should be all on one
The menu item cals GC via "/usr/bin/flatpak run --branch=stable
--arch=x86_64 --command=gnucash --file-forwarding org.gnucash.GnuCash @@
%f @@"
And this is the first (and only) flatpak I have ever installed. I
installed Flatseal so GC could find my data files as well, of course.

In that case the first thing to do is to figure out how exactly your system
calls the flatpak version of gnucash. There are quite a few subtle details
that may affect this.
You can examine the menu entry to figure out what command is being run
exactly.
Out of curiosity have you been removing
Trying "flatpak run org.GnuCash.gnucash --logto=$HOME/gnucash.trace"
does not invoke the program and instead gives me
"error: app/org.GnuCash.gnucash/x86_64/master not installed"
Which is very odd, since it runs from the menu system fine.

Scheme backtraces are usually found at
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Tracefile but if flatpak hides them somewhere
obscure you can dump onto console via "gnucash --logto=stdout". See

The sequence of events was that I had been running 3.8, but somehow it
started to fail badly, with CTD. So I uninstalled that one and

seemed well. I tried to reinstall 3.6 and then 3.8, then 3.11, but the

Elmar,
Can I ask how you went from 2.6.19 to 4.4 flatpak? Did you just open your
version 2.6.19 file in the latest flatpak version 4.4 or did you update to
version 3 and then version 4 to convert your gnucash file correctly? I've
always understood you can't just go from 2.6.19 to 4.4, you have
Thank all for the replies, but what are "scheme backtraces" and where do
I find them? and how do I "convert" my 2.4 reports to 4.4 compatible
ones? - Elmar

This can get quite confusing when discussing app versions vs. reports.

Elmar,
A fair amount of Scheme API was deprecated in 3.x and removed in 4.x. Look
through the NEWS file for which ones. There should be Scheme backtraces in the
trace file that will help identify the source of the crash.

I just took the 2.4 file, copied it (CTRL-C/CTRL-V) and renamed it to
2.8. Opened GC, tried to delete one report, and got a crash to
desktop. So no joy there, unless I have misunderstood what you suggested.

Since you say they seem to run, why don't you try closing gnucash and then
copying your saved-reports-2.4 to saved-reports-2.8, re-opening Gnucash and
opening each saved report in turn and then if everything looks ok saving
the config of each of your reports ? I've upgraded over the years
Honestly, I don't know. Hopefully Geert or John or Chris will reply with
more authoritative answers.

Hi,
It is certainly true that 2.6 reports are not compatible with 4.4. So
yes, I would expect saved reports to not have made the transition.
