As for further punishment, I unloaded via synaptic the old 2.16.19 version
and gave it a go with Ronal's idea of using the sickylife.ppa load out.
After cleaning, I loaded the ppa and installed - no problems - no errors.

It's unfortunate but successfully importing a lot of data often requires a

the program being imported from and when we need to do this is usually when

This is with GnuCash 3.7 and the import file is .csv.

First, you do not specify the type of file that you are importing from.
Since CSV, QIF and OFX imports each use different code, that is important
to know.
Second, you must be using version 3.something because release 2.6.x was
unable to import stock transactions, but it would help to know your

I can't get the split to calculate a price properly after an import.
The account block in the Import Preview is right and the debit amount is right
and in the proper account after import, the split accounts are right (after the
import matcher), and the deposit amount is right and it goes to int

Thanks for the followup Bob.
Glad you got it working.
Agreed, MS should have offered a dialog that it was going to block certain apps
and offer to whitelist them for you.

In order to minimize errors during import I first exported the account
(categories) tree and imported that into GC. We’re there still errors?, yes but
it was manageable. I then exported the data by year into qif files for import
into GC. It made my life easier and reduced the number of errors I

I've experienced 3.7 crashing to the desktop when attempting to insert
text into a journal transaction, no .csv imports involved.
But, I'm running Ubuntu 19.10 (pre-beta) and got 3.7 from the
sicklylife.ppa. Too many variables there to draw meaningful
conclusions.
The crashes weren't consistent,
In all seriousness, I recall that when I tried to import my data from
Quicken, I ran into so many problems and inaccuracies of the transactions
going into the wrong GnuCash account, etc., that I concluded it was just
easier and I'd have more confidence in entering the transactions manually
from the
Also there seems to be confusion.
CSV files and QIF files are quite different, and both have dedicated
importers.
Both may slow with large numbers of transactions to import, hence it's
always safer to import in chunks. Which ones are not functioning?

What is the source of your import files? Once the data in in a data file
it stays there and can be read by the next GnuCash release similar to a
document that can be read by a document editor. The import process would
only be a one-time thing.

This is unfortunate. Perhaps you could anonymize a sample qif file which
fails and attach into a bug report ? It's plain text, so easy to modify.

After a huge effort to install Gnucash 3.7 on a Win 10 machine and then on a
production build (no errors- all dependencies met) of Gnucash 3.7 from
tarball on a Linux box, I failed to get a working program. I was able to
load GnuCash3.7 in the Win 10 box with Qif files that numbered over a
