I have looked into these errors and have found the problem, the windows version of strftime does not support all the format flags on Linux and so the errors.
There are two places I see this error.. The first is from function gnc_ctime at line 234 of gnc-date.cpp, the format string uses a %e for the day of the month with a leading space. This I think can be changed to %d, a leading zero if required, as searching for that function shows it is only used in PINFO statements. The second is generate_statusbar_lastmodified_message at line 1654 of gnc-main-window.cpp, again the format string uses %e so could be replaced with %d but also uses %P for a lower case am/pm but this could be changed to %p for upper case. I looked at these references... http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_60_0/doc/html/date_time/date_time_io.html#date_time.format_flags https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fe06s4ak.aspx Robert On 1 May 2016 at 13:21, Robert Fewell <14ubo...@gmail.com> wrote: > John, > > Here are the first 8 frames, I was a bit to keen on cutting output... > > #0 0x74c4e420 in OutputDebugStringA () from > C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\KernelBase.dll > #1 0x754489f4 in msvcrt!_invalid_parameter () from > C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\msvcrt.dll > #2 0x753f4e60 in wctype () from C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\msvcrt.dll > #3 0x00010001 in ??
