Re: bean-bake export from linux to mac or windows

[Zhuoyun Wei]

I heard that recent versions of macOS use a newer filesystem named APFS. 
Perhaps you could try to open the file in a newer macOS?

Again, I am not a macOS user so I cannot try that out... Good luck!

Re: bean-bake export from linux to mac or windows

[Zhuoyun Wei]

I've never used bean-bake before. I just tried it.

Some of the output filenames contain colons, for example "Assets:Cash.html".

Some filesystem and/or OS cannot handle colons in paths. Linux allows colons in 
paths, while Windows does not.

For example, if you mount an NTFS filesystem in Linux, and create a file called 
"foo:bar.txt" in it before mounting this NTFS filesystem in Windows, you cannot 
open / rename / move /delete the file in Windows. In this case, NTFS allows 
colons, but Windows does not support it.

I don't use macOS, but I guess it's something similar. A quick Google search 
reveals that the HFS filesystem used by previous versions of macOS does not 
allow colons in filenames.

Re: bean-bake export from linux to mac or windows

[Martin Blais]

I have no idea.
This looks like the problem is downstream from Beancount (you mentioned
that your baked folder works fine on Ubuntu).

bean-bake export from linux to mac or windows

[richard gott]

Hello

 

I am the treasurer of a small charity.  I have recently switched from ledger.  One of the main reasons was to make use of bean-bake to share full accounts adn reports with the other trustees.

 

When I run bean-bake I get the folder as predictied whcih works fine - linux (arch adn ubuntu - both ok - ext4).

 

BUT:


	try to copy to USB, fails with 'cannot copy files'
	zip and send to mac, unzip OR
	upload to google drive adn download to mac
	
		index opens fine, structure is intact
		top level accounts open ok
		anything below that is empty
	
	


It behaves as if the apple file system can't cope with the folder depth of the lower level files in the bean-bake folder.  But I am not a computer expert adn that may be complete rubbish.

 

I would be most grateful for any help that can be offered

 

Thanks

 

Richard
