Borken transaction report date comparisons.
I've had a closer look at the transaction report date comparisons, and they appear to be more broken than you have pointed out - they were sorting on exact times, not dates. This won't cause crashes or anything, but it will cause transactions to be ordered incorrectly. If 1.4.1 wasn't out, I'd fix them tonight, but seeing the release is already done and it's past midnight here I'll fix them tomorrow morning :) Robert Merkel [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Gnucash Developer's List To unsubscribe send empty email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

automatic completions in register
Hi, Problem: When I create a new entry (type in a description and an amount, but no transfer [there is a grey "Transfer" in the transfer field]) and record this entry, all is well done. But when I type in a description, for which gnucash guess a transfer and an amount, I am not able to delete the transfer. When I delete the transfer with , go to the next field, the transfer field change to the grey "Transfer"; but when I record this entry, the old guessed transfer appears again and will be displayed. I read in the mailing-list, that there must be an account in the transfer field. Is this true? This behavior first appeared in 1.3.99.

Is this true? It is basically true. Right now, you can type in a transaction by hand and not include a transfer account, but once a transaction has been given an account, you can't delete it, you can only change it to something else. In the future, we will probably always require a transfer account, though there will probably be support for automatically using a 'Miscellaneous' account if you don't type one in. You can always create a 'Miscellaneous' expense account for purchases you don't want to track more specifically. dave -- Gnucash Developer's List To unsubscribe send empty email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
backup v2
This is the second version of the backup proposal. It's quite a bit different than the first. Thanks to everyone who commented on the first one, both on the list and in private. Proposed Backup Strategy for GnuCash v2 === Goals - GnuCash's method for backing up its database files should protect against three kinds of failures: 1. A crash during the operation of GnuCash that doesn't affect the database file, but which prevents newly-entered data from being saved. 2. An error during the writing of a GnuCash database file that prevents the file being written correctly, resulting in an obviously incorrect file. This could be caused by, e.g., a power or hardware failure, running out of disk space, the user hitting ctrl-c or killing the process in some other way, or a bug in the GnuCash file i/o code. 3. The creation of a GnuCash database file that is a readable but incorrect in a non-obvious way. Such a problem may not be discovered for some time. Such a problem could be caused by a bug in GnuCash or by the user accidentally entering wrong data or performing an operation that was later determined to be undesirable (like deleting an account). Current Status -- GnuCash only writes the main database file when requested by the user. Currently, when saving, GnuCash writes the main database file and then writes a time-stamped duplicate of that file. Thus, the user will have a 'save history' of database files that record the state of the database at each point the user requested a save. This 'save history' will protect against failure #3, as you can revert to an earlier, correct version of the database. GnuCash also creates an ascii log file which records changes made to GnuCash entities during operation. Currently, this log file can be used to manually recover from failure #1, but there is no automated way to do so, or any other support for protecting against this kind of error. Problems + Recovering manually from a log is tedious and thus failure #1 is a real pain. + None of the current backup methods will protect against failure #2. + Creating a 'save history' will generate lots of large files, especially for users who save a lot (like me). Proposed Solution - + To better handle failure #1, GnuCash should be able to automatically recover from log files. As changes are made to the database, they will be logged to the filename ".log", where is the name of the database file. When GnuCash starts, it should check for the presence of the log file and, if it exists and has a later modification time than the main file, GnuCash should prompt the user to load the log file in addition to the main file (since the log file will have the changes to the main file that occurred after the last save). + To handle failure #2, GnuCash should change the way it saves the main database file. Saving should be done by: 1. Writing the new database to the temporary file. The temporary file name will be ".tmp" 2. Moving or copying the old database to a backup file, overwriting any existing backup file. The backup file name will be "~" 3. Moving the temporary file to the main database file. Thus, after successful completion of a save, the original database will be saved in a backup file. If there is a writing failure during step 1, the original database is untouched. + GnuCash should maintain log histories, rather than save histories, to handle failure #3. After saving, the current log file should be renamed to be the first log history file, and a new log file should be started. Log history files should be named as ".log.I" where I is an integer and means the log history file is the Ith file in the history. Thus, loading the database should be equivalent to loading (in order) .log.1 ... .log.N where N is the number of log history files. Example === The files in the directory where the main database name 'gnucash.gnc' is located will be as follows: gnucash.gnc - main database file gnucash.gnc~ - backup file from last save gnucash.gnc.tmp - temporary file created during save This file will only existing during saving, unless there is an i/o error. gnucash.gnc.log - The current log file. This file will only exist while gnucash.gnc is open, unless there is an i/o error. gnucash.gnc.log.1 - These are the log history files. gnucash.gnc.log.2 ... gnucash.gnc.log.N Pseudo-Code Implementation -- Saving: /* Save to temporary file */ save_database_to_file(".tmp"); if (error) { report_error_to_gui(); return; } /* Make backup file */ rename("", "~"); if (error) { report_error_to_gui(); /* At this point, the current
Hi & small tidbits for the wishlist
Hi All Uh ... Sorry forgot to include a subject in the last mail Thank you for a great software. I've been using Quicken for the past three years and always wanted to move my finances on to Linux side. I downloaded Gnucash Last thursday and took me about 4 hrs to install/export/setup all double-entry receipient accounts. The double-entry part took some getting used to after Quicken, but it was reasonably easy. So... Thank you guys for a great software. Now for the Q's 1. Is equity a part of the balance sheet?? 2. I used a equity account as the opening balance for all my assets and liabilities, incomes and expenses. This account gets included as a part of the balance sheet, Is this right?? (or should I have used another account??) 3. Is it possible that when you click "record" in the register window that the focus goes to a new record at the bottom of the register instead of staying on the same record. 4. When recording a new txn could the day portion of the date be hilited so it would be easy to enter the date (on the chance that txn entered is not for that date!!). Also, If any of you guys have seen Moneydance, there is a nifty feature to automate txns and also a remind me feature. Would some thing like this be in the works? Finally ... Is there anything I can do to help? My back ground is IBM mainframe (Cobol, DB2, CICS, A littile asm) I know some HTML. Once again, If nobody has told you people this, THANK YOU for GnuCash Regards -- ! Alexander J.P. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ! P.s. I've successfully compiled the latest version!!

I'm rather surprised you don't have libreadline installed - try ls -l /usr/lib/libreadline* at the command line and see what you get.

Re: gnucash 1.4.1
Rolando, I had a very similar problem installing under Mandrake 7.0. Identical complaints, in fact. The solution that let me run was to plant soft links (ln -s) for libguile.so.4 and libreadline.so.3 in /usr/lib, and then turn off dependancy checking when installing the RPM for GnuCash. The "real" libraries I actually have on my system are libguile.so.6.0.0 and libreadline.so.4.1, respectively. So far, I haven't had any problems with GnuCash that can't be traced to "user error". :-) Mandrake allows use of the "kpackage" GUI for loading RPMs, and there's a button to disable the dependancy checking. I'm sorry, I don't know what the command line switch is, since I've never loaded an RPM from the command line. Anyway, it's worth a try -- though I'd tinker a bit trying whatever you think is important to you prior to entering a lot of data, just in case it doesn't work for you.
