Hello,
For a while now, I've been using gnucash 2.3.x with the
sqlite3 backend
on Fedora 64-bit systems. A few days ago, I
downloaded and built
gnucash-2.3.13 on Fedora 13. The problem I'm
seeing is that 2.3.13
won't open my sqlite3 database. It fails with
the message:
Can't parse the URL
file:///data/register.sqlite3.
This file opens just fine with
gnucash 2.3.12. I've used the exact same configure line for both builds:
./configure --prefix=/tools/local --enable-dbi
--with-dbi-dbd-dir=/usr/lib64/dbd
If I attempt to use the File
--> Open dialog with 2.3.13, the only format the appears in the "Data Format:" selection list is "file". With 2.3.12, I see both "file" and
"postgres" as options.
Has something in the build process changed to enable sqlite/postgres?
I was also having some issues with 2.3.12 on 32-bit Fedora-13. I was unable to open an sqlite3 file from an NFS share. IIRC, I got the same "Can't parse" message I quoted above. When I copied the file to the local hard drive, though, I could open the file and see all my transactions, but all the transaction amounts were zero. I was getting ready to report those errors to this list when I saw that 2.3.13 had been released. I thought I'd try 2.3.13 before reporting anything against 2.3.12. Unfortunately, I'm not able to get sqlite3 to work at all in either 32-bit or 64-bit Fedora-13. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
