See my other reply on how to get meaningful info in the terminal. When a report fails, it will prevent loading of all reports in that config-user.scm file.
You can comment individual load lines out with an initial semicolon like so: ;(load (gnc-build-userdata-path "John-Report.scm”)) And that line will not be parsed. I would test each report one by one. Then start testing with those that don’t fail together adding one at a time. Check your terminal output on each run. If your John-Report.scm is fine it should load along with the consolidate-transactions report from Doug. (you also need a load line, and the file, concerning gnctimeperiod-utilities for that report) Of course, if your desired reports match any in the list I provided in my second post, you already know those won’t work, so no need to test them.
