This is usually populated by the gnucash-devel package, not the binary
package gnucash.

because you *could* have customized it.

[GNC] MacOS Catalina Gnucash 3.7 won't start

2019-10-27 Thread Chris Martin
Dear all,
 I've researched the mailing list and the bug lists and seem to have
run into a problem that is not described there.  After updating MacOS to
Catalina, my existing gnucash application would just hang when started
without opening any windows or returning any error messages.  Thinking that
this was just because I was using an older version of gnucash I downloaded
gnucash 3.7 and copied it from the dmg into my Applications folder.  When I
tried to start it now, still the icon would just bounce and bounce with no
windows or error message.  Eventually, after a few minutes, it stopped
bouncing and the os labeled the process as "not responding".  Further
puzzled, I force-quit and tried running it from the command line.
./Gnucash didn't return any error messages, so in the interest of trying to
get a trace file I started adding command-line options.  Even when I run
./Gnucash --debug --extra I still get no output on stdout, stderr, nor a
trace file and the process just hangs and never terminates on its own.
Eventually, I have to kill it with cntrl-c.  I've tried downgrading to
gnucash 3.5 and 3.6 but I get exactly the same result.  In Systems
Preferences, I've given gnucash "Full Disk Access" just in case Catalina's
new disk security scheme was blocking it ... alas no change.  As a
last-ditch effort I tried running it with sudo, but no luck there either.
 I'm confused and puzzled and would welcome any suggestions that any of
you might have.

Thanks in advance!,
  Chris

Chris,

Under System Preferences->Security & Privacy->Privacy->Files and Folders, does 
Gnucash.app have access to the Documents Folder (or the folder where your 
Gnucash data file lives?

Also, try again running from the terminal and add the --nofile option

Is anything written to the trace file (https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Tracefile)?

Re: [GNC] MacOS Catalina Gnucash 3.7 won't start

2019-10-27 Thread Chris Martin
Thanks Chris and John,
 I can confirm that in System Preferences->Security &
Privacy->Privacy->Files and Folders Gnucash is shown as "Full Disk Access"
as a result of me adding it to the Full Disk Access list earlier in my
debugging.  Out of curiosity, I removed it from the Full Disk Access list
and it made no difference.
 After returning it to "Full Disk Access," I then added the "--nofile"
option to ./Gnucash (and then again in addition to --debug and --extra) and
Gnucash still just hangs with no stdout or stderr output and *without*
generating a trace file.  Running a ps seems to show that the process is
just sleeping.

25294 s000  S+ 0:00.00 ./Gnucash --nofile

   I tried a kill -9 in addition to a kill -2 to get it to write a trace
file, but no joy.


-Chris

NOW I see it. I missed the little point about multiple search parameter.

Yes this looks like a bug.

 When using the search function, just one of the requested parameters is
 visible, although there is a good amount of white space in the dialogue
 box.
 Anyone else seeing this?

Re: [GNC] MacOS Catalina Gnucash 3.7 won't start

2019-10-27 Thread John Ralls
Chris,

Weird. With GnuCash (sort of) running, open /Applications/Utilities/Activity 
Monitor. Find gnucash in the process list and select it. Click the gear icon at 
the left end of the toolbar and pick "spindump" from the menu. It will collect 
for a few seconds and then present a window with a bunch of stack traces that 
may show what GnuCash is waiting for.

Regards,
John Ralls
