-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 For me on win2000/SP4 with r15078 and the updated gnome packages according to the recent commits in custom.sh, I get these:
>> - Creating a new file (with default account hierarchy) Works for me just fine. The account hierarchy druid comes up and gives all the locale=C choices that are shipped with gnucash. >> - Creating more accounts in that file Works. >> - Adding transactions to these accounts Works. >> - running reports, particularly "account summary", "income statement", >> "balance sheet" Doesn't work. I tried to run gnucash under gdb, http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Windows#gdb , and surprisingly enough then it works! All of the text reports will simply work when running under gdb... sigh. >>- Saving to file Works just fine as well, probably due to the recent gtk upgrade. >>> Also, in the command prompt window is the following: >>> >>> gnucash: [E] "Failed to fork child process." >> This is probably because gnucash tries to save the file in compressed form, >> which requires a separate gzip process that won't work on windows. In short, >> in the preferences please uncheck the checkbox under General -> File -> >> Compress file. Does saving work, then? > > I wonder if we should just disable this feature on win32? The feature is already disabled on windows, see io-gncxml-v2.c:1243. I tried to find the place that's causing this "failed to fork" message, but apparently it doesn't come from within gnucash. At least we don't have that string anywhere, and the only fork() that gnucash uses is in io-gncxml-v2.c which is unused on windows. So I have no idea where this comes from, and I'd simply ignore it for now.
