Hi Derek,

thanks for the hint with gnucash.trace in /tmp ...

there's actually the following entry:

Invalid timestamp in data file.  Look for a 'trn:date-posted' entry with
a date of 1969-12-31 or 1970-01-01.
qof_query_run: assertion `q->books' failed
qof_query_run: assertion `q->books' failed
qof_query_run: assertion `q->books' failed
Invalid timestamp in data file.  Look for a 'price:time' entry with a
date of 1969-12-31 or 1970-01-01.
Invalid timestamp in data file.  Look for a 'trn:date-posted' entry with
a date of 1969-12-31 or 1970-01-01.

i'll see if i can fix that in the data file. I'll keep you informed
