Thanks David, interesting. There is a 'reply via e-mail to' button at the bottom left of a mail-archive.com message, but that would go by default to the original author - not the list. However, from the actual archive on the list server you *can* send a message to the list, with the subject

David, I'm a purist. I don't believe it's any concern of the Gnucash project how people choose to access the list information. I felt that the information about nabble was Necessary simply because it caused so much meaningless overhead on the main list. In my opinion, I don't see any reason t

Steve, I expect others will give you ideas on how or what is mistaken on the mortgage assistant. I, however, am going to suggest a different approach, which is to forego using the scheduled transactions/mortgage assistant altogether, and simply enter the monthly payments manually. The rea

A slight variation on Steve's suggestion. I made the mortgage payments a 'Scheduled Transaction' with some nominal values for principal and interest payments. Then, they were created automatically, and I just edited them to get the amounts correct. Will On 2022 Aug 2, at 08-02 02:55:33, David

Hi, I am a new user of MacOS having recently bought a MacBook Air (after many years of being a Gnucash user on Windows and Linux). I was able to open my existing GnuCash file and add some transactions. But after closing GnuCash and trying to re-open the file I get the following error: GnuCash

Steve, I am not going to open your zip file, I imagine it is just documenting the fact that the P & I calculations don't exactly match your lenders' statements, which is a known issue, unfixable since they all have their own way of calculating it. At least that was the case years ago when I last

I have downloaded DB Browser for Sqlite and have been trying different combinations of opening the file and remounting the drive and/or rebooting the system. As best as I can tell, after I open and close the file in Gnucash once, I cannot then re-open it with Gnucash nor DBBrowser. It seems th

There may be some useful error messages in the trace file--see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Tracefile. If you're also on macOS and using version 11 or later console output is available again after many years of being sent to /dev/null. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console, select your computer

John, FWIW I also occasionally get this error on MacOS using the default xml backend. Seems like it ignores my prefs and just opens a small Gnucash window about 1/6th normal size. Clicking "File" on the menu options and selecting my usual file from the last opened list re-opens the expected file.

I could suggest trying to find a friend or possibly a Linux User Group nearby to help you with those early teething problems with unfamiliar software. Some people say to ask your grandchild if you have one. None of mine use Linux so I go to my local Linux group. On Tue, Aug 2, 2022 at 2:27 PM Ja

James, of course, move on to something else if you really want to, but there are lots of us here to help. There aren't too many places (especially with respect to accounting software) to find such a community. If you decide to stick it out, we can do our best to help. However, *specifics* are
