[MAINT] Planned server downtime today, 1700 US/EST

[Derek Atkins]

Hi,

I need to take the gnucash server (code) down today to relocate it and
rebalance UPS systems.  The total downtime should be less than 30
minutes, with MOST of that time being spent taking the system down and
waiting for it to boot back up.  I plan to start the take-down around
1700 US/EST, after I do some physical prepartions.

I'll notify #gnucash/IRC before I take the server down, and I'll send
mail when everything is back up.

Please let me know if this is an issue; I can shift it around a little
as necessary, but I DO need to move the servers today.

Thanks!

Is USD the only currency involved in these transactions?

Bug in "Liabilities Barchart" report (since 2.6.19)

[Di Mang]

Hello,

I have a problem with the "Liabilities Chart", "Asset Chart" and "Net Worth
Barchart" reports since I switched to GnuCash 2.6.19 (on Ubuntu 17.10). I
have this problem with unstable 2.7.3 too (built from source). With GnuCash
2.6.17 the reports worked as expected.

These reports display the accumulated amounts, but only based on the
transactions from the selected period. The transactions before the start
time are ignored. See example in the appendix (as image and GnuCash file).

​I tried to find the error. Unfortunately, I do not know where to start.​
Can someone please look at it. With the example from the attachment it
should be easy. Thanks in advance!

Hi David,

A page's title is also its link. So changing the page title means changing the 
link, or to move to page in the wiki.

When I am logged in to the wiki, there is a "More..." menu next to "Read", 
"Edit" and "View History". That menu holds a "Move" option which is the way to 
change a page title. 

It's possible you don't have sufficient privileges for this where I do.

I agree with your assessment of the "Newbie" term, so I have chosen to do the 
move and correct all links still pointing at "Git for Newbies". There were 
only a few from one single page: the Git page.

The "Git for Newbies" page itself remains as a redirect page to keep old 
bookmarks and the rest of the internet happy.

Regards,

Geert

Re: Captcha Error Redux

[Derek Atkins]

Hi,

The problem is that code is configured to have an IPv6 address, but I had
disabled the IPv6 tunnel because it was causing significant network
failure.  However I never unconfigured the address on code.

The fix I did before was manually unconfiguring the IPv6 address. 
However, code rebooted last night.  It looks like there might have been a
power blip, or the UPS I have is not quite powerful enough to handle the
server -- a temporary situation -- but my VM system rebooted.

Anyways, as a result, code got its IPv6 address back.  I just turned it
off again.

I have just reconfigured ens3 so it should not enable IPv6 on the next
reboot.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but thank you for letting me know promptly.

Re: how exactly to do unit testing in scheme...

[Christopher Lam]

Thank you Phil, with help from IRC I'll be separating the renderer into
multiple testable steps.

Options to accountlist, to splits, to filtered splits, and finally to
table.

Each one uses different parts of options.

Captcha Error Redux

[David T. via gnucash-devel]

On January 13, there were a number of folks with errors with the Captcha 
verification on the wiki. I am having this problem again; what were the steps 
taken to fix this?
