Re: Unsaved Book

Solved. Removed ~/.conf/dbus directory and it was regenerated when  
GnuCash restarted. It works fine now.


Thanks everyone for your time.

Hi, there was a power outage while I was working on GnuCash. Since then,
whenever I start the program, instead of a window showing the opened
gnucash file, it shows two buttons, "Save" and "Close"  with "Unsaved
Book" on the title bar. I can still open the gnucash file from that
window, but this is not normal. Another problem is that I can't change
anything on preferences window. All check boxes and radio buttons are
fixed.

My OS is FreeBSD(ver 11.1) and I uninstall and removed ~/.gnucash and
then reinstalled it, but the problem is still there.

These preferences are stored in OS X' native defaults system. It appears
the power outage has corrupted these in some way. These preferences are
stored in /Users//Library/Preferences/gnucash.plist
You can try to restore a backup of this file from before the power outage
or reset your settings by removing that file.

Note the Library folder is hidden from the finder so to access it you'll
have to use Go->Go to folder... (this is from OS  X 10.7, the name and
menu location may have changed meanwhile).

Umm, FreeBSD != MacOS, though part of MacOS is based on FreeBSD.

For FreeBSD I'd expect that the preferences are stored and managed with GBus
as they are on Linux.

Oops, I completely misread that. I had read "OS X based on FreeBSD xyz). Sorry
for the noise...
