Re: [GNC] gnucash freezing

2018-06-08 Thread David Carlson
How " does not work on windows 7. Neither download of gnucash. "

Exactly what does happen?  Do you see an error message? which of the
operating systems are you describing?  Ubuntu requires a different download
than Windows, and 18.04 is very new.  Some programs might not work on that
release.  Not sure which version of GnuCash has been packaged for
Ubuntu18.04.

[GNC] Billing employee expenses back to a customer

2018-06-08 Thread Matthew Pounsett
I'm entering an employee expense voucher that includes some receipts that
are billable back to a customer.  If I'm reading the documentation
correctly, I should be able to enter a customer name in the "Default
chargeback project - Customer" field, and then mark individual line items
as billable in order for them to show up in the customer account.

However, when I place the cursor in the customer field and try to type I
get system beeps, indicating that I can't type in that field.  And the Edit
button next to the field doesn't seem to do anything.

Have I missed a step somewhere?  I have not set up any Jobs.. do I need to
do that in order to bill back?

A side note.. the documentation text for the Customer and Job fields is
identical to each other in both the v2.6 and v3 docs.  It looks like the
Customer description was C into the Job description and then not updated.

AFAIK there has been no changes.  Indeed, this messages says:

[GNC] Online quotes problem

Hey guys n gals,

I'm afraid I'm getting a bit out of my depth here. Keep having problems 
getting online updates of stocks. Been through the archives but none of 
it seems relevant to me on this topic.


Tried re-installing the perl installer [on Win 10]and it seemed to be 
fine. Only problem is I still get 'unknown error' message when I try to 
'get quotes'.


As per the guide, I tried c:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>gnc-fq-dump 
-v yahoo USDEUR=X. .got:


'gnc-fq-dump' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Re: [GNC] Where is the theme selection in 3.x?

2018-06-08 Thread Thomas Forrester
I would have to agree.  Leaving all the Windows users to deal with a
single, not very appealing interface scheme is tragic.  It almost makes me
want to go back to 2.x until this situation has been dealt with.  2.x was
very stable and I had been able to find a theme I liked.  For the sake of
those Windows users who use this program on a daily basis, I think this
should be a development imperative.  I get that this program was born on
Linux and is developed and maintained there, and that's perfectly
brilliant.  So, too, is a similar situation for my favorite recreational
program - the X-Plane flight simulator.  It was written in the Mac world
and has version for other platforms.  Despite it's Mac origins, its most
used platform (and highest performance platform) is Windows.

I cannot devote hardware to a Linux box just for GnuCash, and wouldn't want
to have to go to another machine to do my accounting anyway.  Although I
could spool up a virtual machine with a Linux distro in Oracle VM
VirtualBox (and already have two) I find that they inevitably blow up for
some unknown reason.  I just cannot justify putting my financial data on a
precarious virtual machine.

Please, Please, Please don't let the Windows users fall to second-class
status.  That, IMHO, would be a huge mistake.

Re: [GNC] Saved Report Configurations Missing After Upgrade to v3

2018-06-08 Thread Thomas Forrester
Hi Geert,

I located the trace files.  Not sure why, if they are such a valuable
diagnostic tool, that they are stored in the AppData Temp folder.  I also
found that every report I've looked at since upgrading to 3.x has a
corresponding html file in that Temp folder, too.  It might be worth
reconsidering the location for those files along with a retention
schedule.  But anyway...

Oh, and another suggestion - the trace file should have a version stamp,
not just a time stamp.  I can't really tell the exact point at which I
upgraded by just the time stamp.  I believe it was early in the day on
either Tuesday or Wednesday of this week, but a version stamp would
completely eliminate doubt.

I only have 13 trace files dated from 2018.06.04 to today, 2018.06.08.
These dates to include the upgrade from 2.?.19 to 3.0-118-gd2ef5fd0f+
(2018-04-28)

The vast majority of trace files only say:
* 05:58:17  WARN  Could not spawn perl: Failed to execute
child process (No such file or directory)

One of them pre-upgrade (I'm pretty sure) says:
* 06:30:48  WARN  Could not spawn perl: Failed to execute
child process (No such file or directory)
* 06:31:40  WARN  Could not find the icon 'gtk-file'. The 'hicolor'
theme
was not found either, perhaps you need to install it.
You can get a copy from:
http://icon-theme.freedesktop.org/releases

>From the morning of Wed 2018.06.06 which may be the time of upgrade:
* 06:25:32  WARN  Could not spawn perl: Failed to execute
child process (No such file or directory)
* 06:44:17  WARN  Could not locate file AUTHORS
* 06:44:17  WARN  Could not locate file DOCUMENTERS
* 06:44:17  WARN  Could not locate file LICENSE
* 07:07:15  CRIT  [gnc_ui_file_access_response_cb()] Invalid
response

The very next trace file, after I accidentally left the program running all
day says:
* 10:36:13  WARN  Could not spawn perl: Failed to execute
child process (No such file or directory)
* 18:45:07  CRIT 
[GncDbiSqlConnection::begin_transaction()] BEGIN transaction failed()
* 18:45:07  CRIT  [GncSqlBackend::commit()]
begin_transaction failed

The one that was apparently created just now when I started the program
says:
* 06:11:57  WARN  Could not spawn perl: Failed to execute
child process (No such file or directory)
* 06:15:05  CRIT  [gnc_ui_file_access_response_cb()] Invalid
response


There was no popup about moving metadata following the upgrade.

I never experimented with the dev series.

I will re-check the release notes, but as I upgraded to 3.1.x, hopefully I
just skipped over any earlier 3.0 issues.

Thanks!

Re: [GNC] Reconcile Problem

2018-06-08 Thread Gareth Davies via gnucash-user
Hi Ron, and thank you for the welcome.

Thanks to the messages I received from you and Derek I was able to find out 
where my problem was.

As I mentioned in my post I am still trying to get my head around the program, 
and no doubt this will not be the last of my posts.

Gareth

Hi Gareth.  Welcome to the list.

With the account register open, click on the "view" item in the menu bar, then 
in the dialog that opens click on "filter by". Then click on "status" in that 
menu bar which opens a selection dialog. Clear the checks from all but 
"Reconciled". Then click on OK.

Putting a check in the "save filter" box will make the selection persistent 
from session to session, otherwise the filter will revert to the default (all 
categories selected) the next time you open the account register.

You'll have to set the filter for each account register individually.

Ron Morse.
