10:58:05 <karmel> hello all, I would like to ask for help in following subject: I am not able to open a linux (Ubuntu) created (or modified) gnucash file in windows (XP, VISTA). The other way round it works.
10:59:39 <jsled> what version of gnucash on the linux side? Are you using scheduled transactions in the file? What happens when you try to open it?
11:01:05 *** twunder has joined #gnucash
11:12:58 <karmel> 2.2.6 on windows; 2.2.4 on linux; there are no scheduled transaction; I am just a beginner, who should work on both Operating Systems; when I try to open the file in windows I get the message that gnucash-bin.exe cannot open it
11:13:56 <jsled> How are you invoking gnucash or opening the file on windows?
11:14:18 <jsled> There's a gnucash.bat that you should call; it will invoke gnucash-bin.exec "correctly".
11:14:25 <jsled> s/exec/exe/

11:53:58 <karmel> yes, I tryed this, but I got the same error message; it seems to me, that the different use of date causes the problem: in Windows %d-%m-%Y in Ubuntu %Y-%m-%d; but there is no effect, when I make changes in the preferences.
11:57:10 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
11:57:34 <warlord> karmel: the data file is 100% compatible between Linux and Windows.. Or at least it should be.. And it has been.
11:58:02 <warlord> It's certainly been shown that you could take a 2.2.x data file and successfully open it on all platforms, Win32, Mac, and linux
11:58:29 <warlord> The display date is irrelevant to the data file format.

12:33:51 *** fell has joined #gnucash
12:35:08 <fell> karmel: It seems, there are different settings for LANG in your OSes.
12:39:01 *** ErKa has joined #gnucash
12:40:58 <fell> warlord: do you think, we could adjust htdocs as mentioned in https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-devel/2008-June/023145.html?
12:42:06 <warlord> fell: I'll respond in 30 minutes when I get to my office.... gotta run

13:07:34 <warlord> fell: I thought I saw that done already.. Was that change not made?
13:10:47 <warlord> fell: Okay, done.
13:22:49 <karmel> fell: maybe; I use German versions; the Ubuntu Gnucash seems to use ISO
13:25:14 <fell> warlord: fine, thanks.
13:26:29 <warlord> karmel: the data file uses ISO internally on all platforms.
13:27:03 <fell> karmel: if the date is different, also other things could be different like language, currency, ...
