Software :: Split Transactions In GNUCash - Giving Gripe
Jun 2, 2011
I've been trying to get a family member to switch over to Ubuntu, and as of now his computer is dual-booting Ubuntu and Windows. He uses Quicken and I wanted to give him as few reasons as possible to boot windows. I installed GNUCash, and he started using it just fine until he tried entering a split transaction.
It was like this: Person A donated w amount of dollars, Person B x amount of dollars, Person C y amount of dollars, and Person D z amount of dollars. These all were deposited at the same time to form a deposit of d dollars. How would this be entered? Please try to show the exact output if possible.

I recently transferred my old Quicken data to GnuCash. That data includes some very old (15 years ago) transactions and accounts. How can I get rid of all transactions prior to, say, 1/1/2004? I would guess that the Close Book tool is relevant, but there's no documentation on it that I can find. I also want to get rid of ancient accounts, but when I try, I get a message to the effect that I can't delete read-only transactions. More generally, is there a place for asking GnuCash questions?

I tried a yum clean all but this still comes up when installing:
There are unfinished transactions remaining. You might consider running yum-complete-transaction first to finish them.
The program yum-complete-transaction is found in the yum-utils package. How to clean the cache? I don't want to run any of the transactions.

we got a dell nf600 network storage server which functions as headnode for our little computing-grid and network storage system
i did a normal install of centos 5.4, upgraded to 5.5 and so far there haven't been any problems with one exception:there are 2 harddisk configurations present on the box:
- a raid system where i store all the data with 4TB, mirrored
- a harddrive where the system files are stored
the network access happens via samba and nfs and is fast enough, but when i want to copy something from the raid to the single harddrive or vice-versa, or make some bigger file operations on the raid, the system slows down VERY much and is not responsive at all that there should be some extra-configuration for the filesystem/raid controller/... but i don't know where to start looking i would appreciate it very much if someone could help me further - and i will ofc provide all the configuration files you need for that (i just don't know which ones to post here in the first place)i'm not too lazy to read through some manuals, if you know a good one for setting up a fileserver in centos (with info how to tweak performance)

I am having a problem with 5.4 that I did not have with 4.5. The problem happens only sometimes but in specific instances. Basically a summary of the problem is that certain network transactions timeout. The specific instances are with wget, rpm, http. The problem usually, but not always, occurs with pptp stuff. (NOT running pptp but getting pptp stuff). For instance, the following command, which finishes in seconds on non-5.4 OS's:
wget [URL]
downloads about 20% then gets stuck. About 5 minutes later it downloads another 20% and then gets stuck, etc. The same thing with rpm:
rpm -ivh [URL]
waits about 3 minutes and then gives an error. I think it does the same thing as the wget but
wget will keep trying, while rpm gives up. The error from rpm:
Retrieving [URL]
..five minutes later:
I can wget the above as I mentioned before and install it that way. Before I do it, yum works fine. Afterwards, yum exhibits the same behavior of timing out (because it is using the pptp repository). Also visiting the pptp web site from Firefox times out on certain pages. I originally thought it was some problem with the pptp site, but I notice that log into hotmail.com. Does the same thin (fine on other operating systems). A view with Wireshark on the wget (pptp) shows the my machine receiving a reassembled TCPPDU from 216.34.181.96 (Sourceforge), sending an ack, receiving a reassembled PDU, sending an ack, receiving, sending followed by the 5 minutes or whatever of nothing. Then sourceforge sends an RST and a SYN and the process is repeated.
When I put the machine directly on an AT&T IP connection (12.147.X.Y) everything worked fine. Same with Comcast on a direct link. The times I am having problems is when our router is hooked up to a Comcast IP (70.88.X.Y) and assigns 192.168.5.X addresses to our machines. So when I was doing the above from 192.168.5.27 going through the router through Comcast is when I had the problem. So it is probably something with the router, but it is hard to figure out since CentOS 4.5 and Fedora do not exhibit this behavior, nor does 5.4 on most sites (mail.yahoo.com for instance). I did verify, at least from what I could, that ICMP type 3 and 4 are not being blocked. If they were, the same problem would happen on other op systems. And I was able to ping, albeit just locally, but we looked at the router settings and ping was not blocked.

use a Live CD of Ubuntu to do all my financial transactions online, I figure thats the safest way since any virus/trojan cannot infect the Live CD?Just one question, how safe is it to use Linux as a whole for this kind of use?(I mean, Linux and all the apps are open source and written by just about anybody, so how can I be sure that even the Ubuntu Live CD doesnt have any sort of keylogger etc installed? After all, with so many lines of code, I'm sure someone could have sneaked in something like that?)

Kmymoney is freezing on start up with the above message. Processor running at 100%. Only way out is to kill the process.
I tried removing the programme and reloading via the software centre but no joy. If I re-name my date file to a different file type the programme loads normally but of course asks to start a new account.
It would seem that my data file is corrupted in some way?

I've found the office equivalent to MS office that I was currently using and have acclimated myself to those programs. Now, I'm looking for the closest equivalent to Microsoft money where I can access my on-line account and download the transactions as I have been doing with Microsoft Money. I've recently downloaded kmymoney, but I don't know how to set up the on-line account download.

Gnucash 2.4 has been released and I'd like to install it in my OpenSuSE 11.3 system. It isn't in any of the repositories that I have listed, although it might be in some repository I don't know about. If it's not in a repository, then I'll have to build it from source. I downloaded the source package and attempted to build it, starting with configure. I got as far as this:
configure: External QOF Disabled. Using Internal QOF Code.
checking dbi/dbi.h usability... no
checking dbi/dbi.h presence... no
checking for dbi/dbi.h... no
configure: error: Unable to find dbi/dbi.h
The perl-DBI package is installed, so that's probably not what it's looking for.So what do I need to do to install Gnucash 2.4?

The latest version of Gnucash available in openSUSE - and I checked the Gnome factory repo - is 2.4.0. The latest version from Gnucash was announced on Sunday and that was 2.4.5. Admittedly 2.4.1 doesn't seem to have been released and 2.4.2 had a bug in Windows but 2.4.3 was released on 27th Feb. Any reason why openSUSE seems to be lagging behind?

I'm running OpenSuSE 11.1 and trying to install aqbanking using Yast. Gnucash tells me this: The external program "AqBanking Setup Wizard" has not been found. The aqbanking-qt3 package should include the program "qt3-wizard".check your installation to ensure this program is present. On some distributions this may require installing additional packages.When I try to install aqbanking-qt3, I get dependency problems. How can I get past this?

Based on Product highlights - openSUSE, it would appear that using sqlite3 in gnucash would be available. However, I do not have an option to save an existing book to the database format, nor is it available when creating a new book - only xml is available. Is there anything special that I need to do to enable the sqlite backend?

I installed GNUCash to try it out, but ended up not liking it too much. So I went into Ubuntu Software Center and pushed remove. It was taking really long (over 25 minutes) so I restarted my system. Now it is telling me I need to first repair the installation before I can remove it.I've been trying really hard to keep my system clean and organized and now this is bugging me

I just installed fedora 14 and it rocks! The problem is gnucash. When I start it it throws the following error:
gnucash-2.3.15-2.fc13.i686 requires libwebkit-1.0.so.2
I tried to find such lib but it's not available. I noticed there's libwebkitgtk and then I created a symbolic link to it and gnucash works fine, except the menu bar doesn't appear. This bar is crucial for accessing some features what makes gnucash almost useless since I cannot import .ofx files for example.

I am trying to replicate my GnuCash files between two computers. My GnuCash folder has three types of files:
* One Gzip archive file
* Many xac files (GnuCash Financial Data)
* Many log files
The xac and log files replicate with no problem. However the Gzip file does not. Without this Gzip file, GnuCash cannot makes sense of the other files.Why would this Gzip file not sync? Have others used Ubuntu One to sync their GnuCash files?

I'm trying to take off with GnuCash and I've been trying to work on the basics.
Here's my question: I don't want to enter all the details of bills sine there's another program for that. So I thought it would be right to enter the sales summary in the accounts receivable account and post the corresponding entry for the Sales account. Based on this,
1. What does the TYPE mean (I/P) on the receivable account?
2. I let it have I and now I want to go back and edit those entries but I can't seem to do that. It appears to be locked.

Running 10.04 64bit. Installed the latest Gnucash from repositories. Using Quicken 2003 and exported an account to a qif file. When trying to import to Gnucash the error "A bug was detected while reading the QIF file." displays. This, at least is more than I was able to do previously (prior to 10.04 and several earlier versions of Gnucash running in 8.04 through 9.10). Before it would cause Gnucash to crash and shutdown. I select a specific account with categories from Quicken to export. I can import to KMymoney and use it but that program is not compatible with the wife and does not do reconciliation reports by default.

I have been using gnucash for years and never had any problems but now every time I try to load it it crashes upon trying access an account. The sequence is that it first tells me it cannot get a lock on ANY of my files reporting that they may be in use by somebody else; this is impossible. However when I do load it the initial list of accounts installs.
However when I try to open any specific account Gnucash crashes. I am using Mepis 8.0 and Gnucash 2.2.6 directly from the repositories. I have removed it and reinstalled it but to no avail. I have tried to install version 2.2.9 as a tar file but I keep getting dependency errors despite the fact the files are installed.

So I think I almost have gnucash figured out. One problem though. When I try to import my stock quotes for my portfolios, It won't get any quotes for my OTC BB Stocks. Under the security editor, there is no option for OTC as an exchange. For example: CNEX. How would I set GnuCash up to import this quote?

i have a large data file for gnucash of several years in age. when i did the upgrade, gnucash starts and loads, and the main account appears to load, but there is nothing displayed. just an empty gray space where the alternating colors of the ledger should be.the account listing loads, and i can view other smaller accounts just fine. but the main ledger does not display. however, if i click on some areas of the screen, it will display what i assume is the underlying text in the bottom status bar.
and when a window or some other graphic element 'over writes' any area, some remnants of the former image remain.

I just did an install of Natty into a separate partition and incurred several problems. I have a Dell-DXP061 with 4 GB of memory and an Nvidia GForce 7300LE and a Dell 27in. monitor at a resolution of 1920x1200.
Initially it booted in to Ubuntu Classic as expected due to needing a proprietary video driver. So the first thing I did was to install the recommended Nvidia driver and attempted to reboot. It would not start either Unity or Classic. So I did a re-installation and then selected the experimental open 3D driver and was then able to bring up the system in both Unity and Ubuntu Classic. I installed a number of programs including cairo-dock, which I really like, emacs23, and gnucash. I have used gnucash for years and consider it a necessity. However, the Natty version will not display correctly the "gnucash-data" file I created with version 2.2.9 that I have been running on 10.10. This is almost a show stopper for me.
When I try to do a restart, the screen goes black, "Ubuntu" appears with the little dots, three of the dots change color and the system hangs. The system only stops when I hold the power button to effect a complete power outage. Interestingly the LiveCD did not seem to have a problem with restart.
I can see how a causal user might like the Unity interface, but I don't think that I am interested. I guess I will stick to gnome for a while, at least until Gnome3 and then I am not sure where I will go.
