Re: [GNC] How to import MT940 and/or online banking missing in 5.5

2024-03-27 Thread john
André,

There aren't any errors there, just progress messages. It's complaining that 
you don't have the setup files, but it doesn't need them for a plain file 
import. It's quite possible that your bank's MT940 format doesn't match either 
of the profiles. Different banks interpret MT940 spec differently resulting in 
incompatibilities, hence Martin's suggestion to use CAMT 0.53 instead.

Regards,
John Ralls

Re: [GNC] How to import MT940 and/or online banking missing in 5.5

2024-03-27 Thread An Ku
Hi John, all

I just ran it again with the debug enabled as per John's instructions.
Again: I have not done any kind of setup of online banking or anything like
that, I'm only going to File-Import-AQBanking-Swift on the left-Swift-MT940
on the right side and click OK. Nothing happens after that.
I also tried the same with a camt53 file (choosing the related option in
the dialog) with the same result.

I also noticed that I have a folder created on the 19. (probably that first
time I ran/installed 5.5.1) in my user folder called "aqbanking". It
contain 2 folders:

   - settings
  - This one is empty
  - settings6
  - aqbanking
 - config.conf only contains one line: "int
  lastVersion="100992000""
  - backends
 - aqebics.conf
 - aqhbci.conf
 - aqnone.conf
 - aqofxconnect.conf
 - aqpaypal.conf


Here's the debug output:

Hi John

I follow the import process exactly as you describe it and not the Online
Banking. See my earlier email.

I'll do the debug and let you know.

Thanks and best regards.

Re: [GNC] How to import MT940 and/or online banking missing in 5.5

2024-03-27 Thread john
Please copy the list on all replies.

The error suggest that you're trying to do a direct-bank download (FinTS, 
PayPal, or OFX DirectConnect) without having setup online banking. That's a bit 
odd on its own because GnuCash usually won't enable those menu selections (in 
Actions>Online Banking) without having run the AQBanking setup assistant in 
Tools>Online banking.

You don't need any of that to import an MT940 file. Use File>Import>Import 
using AQBanking and select Swift on the left and SWIFT-MT940 (unless you're an 
AMRO customer, in which case use AMRO-MT940) then click OK to select a file and 
proceed with the import.

The Windows equivalent of Unix's `export` is `set` in CMD, e.g. `set 
AQBANKING_LOGLEVEL=debug`. After doing that run GnuCash with `"C:\Program Files 
(x86)\gnucash\bin\gnucash.exe" --log aqbanking=debug`. Don't include the 
backticks (`), do include the double quotes (").

John Ralls

Re: [GNC] How to import MT940 and/or online banking missing in 5.5

2024-03-26 Thread An Ku
It seems there is some issue with AQBanking related to a missing config
file? As mentioned, I did not understand how I can install AQBanking
separately on Windows. I did a clean start of GnuCash and only tried to
import. This is what the Gnucash tracefile shows:

* 14:57:04  WARN  Could not locate file AUTHORS

If necessary, please let me know how I can increase the loglevel. I did not
understand how to do it on Windows reading the following pages:
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/AqBanking#Debugging
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Logging

Thanks all for the help!

BTW: I always prefer camt over swift, because camt is a well documented and 
well understood file format.
Swift mt940 OTOH is a pain in the neck, with all those extensions and 
specialties.

It took us about 20 years to get the swift parser work well enough for all 
those different document types we encountered so far in Germany. It might not 
work that well with MT940 docs from other countries :-/ I imagine your banks 
have their own ideas about what to put in the MT940 fields...

Hi all
Yes thank you, I was on 5.5 and those options were not available. I have
read about AQbanking but neither did the setup option exist nor the import
option.

Our packages (Windows, Macos, Flatpak) include AqBanking. Only Linux and

Is there anything I should set up first before using the Import option?


No, the setup serves to configure bank connections, e.g. your paypal 
account.



If there's a howto I have not been able to find I would appreciate a link.


There is only a small paragraph in the manual:

In your case the trace file
