Re: [GNC] Fwd: [GNC-dev] Fwd: Failed - import of QIF files from Quicken
So you are suggesting reducing the size of our QIF files to a small debuggable size. My QIF file is 653,808 lines long. About 2^20. So just using a binary search would take at least 20 trials to find the first line that it fails on. Not exactly something that seems practical. And that's just for my input file. And of course, just feeding a partial file might produce a failure, but a failure of a different kind, so this won't necessarily get us anywhere. -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.

Re: [GNC] QIF file import failed -- but no errors or warnings
I downloaded the current source code and built it.
After gnucash tries to import my QIF file, I get the single word "Failed".
Tracking
this down, it is coming from
/* Inform the user. */
gnc_progress_dialog_set_sub (wind->convert_progress, _("Failed"));
in assistant-qif-import.c at about line 3105, and is a result of
if (scm_is_symbol (retval)) at line 3093 before that. The scm_is_symbol
seems to be a scheme function that determines if the retval is a scheme
symbol.
The retval is set by calling scm_apply (qif_to_gnc, ...) at about line 3040,
which then takes us to the Scheme function qif-import:qif-to-gnc in
qif-to-gnc.scm. which seems to be about 200 lines of Scheme code
which is probably catching an exception but generates no error messages
or hint as to what is wrong.
What with the large level of complexity in building gnucash using cmake,
scheme, swig, and c,
and the resulting dynamic loading of libraries,
it's difficult for an outsider to step in and try to help.

[GNC] QIF file import failed -- but no errors or warnings
I have been using Quicken for decades, but the recent change to an annual subscription model, instead of buying the program on a disc, is driving me away. So I wanted to try GnuCash. I installed gnucash and have Version 3.7. I created a QIF file on my Windows 10 machine (using Quicken 2017) and moved it to a file on my Linux box. Then I opened gnucash for the first time, and selected the menu item File > Import, walked thru all the steps for a QIF Import, changing nothing, and finally got to the point where it says "When you press the Start Button, GnuCash will import your QIF data. If there are no errors or warnings, you will automatically proceed to the next step. Otherwise the details will be shown below for your review." But all I get (that I can see) is a one-word "Failed". If I then click Next, I go to the Qif Import Summary which says "There was a problem with the import." All of which is of really no help at all. Where do I find a statement of what errors or warnings it had? jim -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
