<TITLE>Error Message Opening GC</TITLE>

<BODY>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I was wondering if anybody had seen the following error message before:</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New"> Error: gnc_mbstowcs: bad multi-byte conversion</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New"> Error: gnc_quickfill_insert: bad text conversion</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I am using GC 1.8.9 running on Fedora 2 and this message is being displayed every time I'm starting GC, opening an account, or enter a transaction into a register. However, the error doesn't appear to effect the behavior of GC as far as I can tell.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I was wondering if the problem - since I haven't seen any report of this in Bugzilla or the archives - might be related to some German characters in an account name. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">By the way, I did not see this error message in GC 1.8.8.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Thanks</FONT>
