Understood, and thanks for the clarification. I could be misreading the wiki. Perhaps someone more familiar with the environment variables specifically on Windows could chime in. Regards, Adrien > On Sep 27, 2019 w39d270, at 11:46 PM, mark101 > wrote: > > Thanks Adrien for your reply. > >

It would require to set both environment variables: GNC_DATA_HOME GNC_CONFIG_HOME On Windows they happen to point at the same directory but it's two different locations what GnuCash is concerned. Can you post the environment.local file you tried to achieve this with ? Regards, Geert Op zaterd

David, I take it you have been using the wiki pages on Building on Linux (https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Building_On_Linux). cmake is a little bit tricky at first. I occasionally get the command syntax wrong if i haven't done a build for a while. The tricky bit is getting the relative addressing f
