It only just occurred to me to check the Windows Event logs.

Since "Check & Repair" only appears to use the GUI to select accounts for partial checks, it would be nice to have a command line option (like the one to update prices) to perform "Check & Repair All" then save & exit, e.g.: gnucash --repairall [datafile] -----Original Message----- From: rsbrux Sent: Saturday, August 27, 2022 9:00 PM To: 'gnucash-user@gnucash.org' <gnucash-user@gnucash.org> Subject: GC 3.11 crashes during "Check & Repair" I installed GC 3.11 on a PC running Windows 10 21H2 and ran "Check & Repair All" on my GC 2.6.19 XML file (twice).

Perhaps try a 3.x flatpak? Otherwise, if you haven't yet jumped from 18.04 to 22.04 maybe an interim stop at 20.04 will get you GnuCash 3.x. (Can you even go directly from 18.04 to 22.04? I didn't think it would even give you the option) Be sure to review the Wiki about upgrading. You'll need to run Actions > Check & Repair > Check & Repair All at each upgrade of a major version. Regards, Adrien << Thanks for the tips! I came across the Flatpak possibility, but was dissuaded by the apparent complexity of the description at: https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Flatpak David's suggestion: >> Another approach to consider is using the 20.04 (focal) live ISO. Just put the ISO on a USB and boot from that, then install gnucash in the live environment, and using that to convert your gnucash data to version 3. That way you don't have to try to install different versions on either 18.04 or 22.04. << sounded easier since I had already made a boot disk for Ubuntu Studio 20.04 LTS. Unfortunately, that didn't work. I was able to boot from the live DVD and install GC 3.8. However, when I tried to run Check & Repair All, following your suggestion, it never finished. Check & Repair gives no indication of its progress in either 2.16.9 or in 3.8. The menu bar and toolbar flash occasionally while Check & Repair is running, but the only indication that it isn't done is that the menu cannot be operated and there is no indication of it having finished. In the live Ubuntu Studio 20.04 environment, the GUI would become unresponsive if inactive for as little as 15 minutes, even after I disabled all suspend, screen lock and screen saver features, making it difficult to just let Check & Repair run as long as necessary. After that the DVD would start working overtime. I have had a similar problem with the GUI becoming unresponsive in my freshly installed US 22.04, but only if I leave it idle on the login screen. At this point I plan to try installing GC 3.8 on a Windows PC to do the file conversion.

I still have a working Ubuntu 18.04 installation, so I thought I might find GnuCash 3.8 in a backport repository. However, I have only found it in focal (1:3.8b-1build4) and focal-updates (1:3.8b-1ubuntu1). What is the difference between 3.8b-1build4 and 3.8b-1ubuntu1? Would it be safe to install either of these GC versions in either Ubuntu 18.04 or 22.04?

I was running GC 2.6.19 under Ubuntu Studio 18.04 and I have read on this mailing list that I will need to migrate to GC v 3.x before I can migrate to GC 4. I would therefore like to install GC 3.8b. What is the easiest way to do this? Is there a repository I can add to Discover that I can pull it (or at least some stable 3.x version) from? << _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
