You still have not answered my question.  Let me state it YET AGAIN and MAYBE
this time you'll actually answer my question.  What happens when you run
gnucash on the commandline and specify the filename as the only argument?

I.e., you were running before:

  gnucash --add-quotes /path/to/filename

and it failed.   What happens if you just run:

  gnucash /path/to/filename

Does that work?  Or does that fail, too?
