sqlite is still installed and available on my machine. I can't make sure which version is used though, as there are several and I don't quite get which PATH Gnucash is using on MacOS.
It's very likely that it uses the MacOS pre-installed version and that it hasn't changed. If Gnucash has access to the specific "brew" installed binaries then it may be that a newer version isn't compatible. -nodje On 08/04/2018 14:33, David Carlson wrote: Did you verify that you had the back end installed? see [1]https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#SQL_Database David C On Sun, Apr 8, 2018 at 7:10 AM, coolnodje <[2]coolno...@gmail.com> wrote: Using Gnucash on MacOS, I got this error trying to open a recently created file which I think I based on a database back-end instead of the standard. I have upgraded to 3.0 in the meantime and thought it was the problem. But I realized when I finally was able to start a v2.6.20 on an older MacOS10.12 virtual machine that I still had the problem. Which means that this is all unrelated to the 3.0 upgrade. I've tried to revert the file to an older version (prior to the last modification, so prior to the last successful opening) but got the same error. This really confuses me: - the file as it was the last time it was successfully modified cannot be opened (which should exclude file corruption problem) - the latest version on latest MacOS can't open it because "No suitable backend", but 2.6.20 on MacOS10.12 also can't open it because "No suitable backend". So if the file itself is not the problem, and if version that used to be able to open it can't anymore, where could the problem come from? Only I wasn't able to reproduce the error with the exact same setup I had when last successfully modified: trying to reinstall 2.6.20 on MacOS10.13 I realized it can't be started anymore (Gnucash can't be opened because of a problem - DYLD, [0x4] Symbol missing) Is there anything I can do to try to save the file in question? - nodje _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list [3]gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: [4]https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see [5]https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
