Paying Invoices

[Geert Janssens]

I have received your log and trace file. The trace file is not what I had in mind but that's ok.

Here is what I read in the log replay:
Check & repair works relatively well until September 2014. There are older lot links in your data 
file though. At least one is referred to in September 2013.

When you interrupted the check & repair action, the last transaction GnuCash worked on was 
Oct 23, 2014. So still a while to go.

Unfortunately I don't think gnucash would be able to finish the action. It does remove the lot 
links, but instead it creates transactions with an abundance of splits. That last transaction has 
well over 600 splits (I stopped counting).

So my advice is to revert back to the state of your book right before you ran check & repair.

This reminds me I have fixed a bug in check & repair right after gnucash 2.6.5 has been 
released. This fix was specifically aimed at this splitting going out of control. Not everyone 
would experience this bug, but clearly with your book you do.

It will be pretty useless to try and run check & repair until this fix gets released (planned for 
end of March). That is, unless you are able to build your own version of gnucash based on the 
most recent maint branch head.

If that is not an option for you here is another proposal: if you are willing to share your gnucash 
book with me privately, I could use it to test the above bugfix and perhaps fix even more bugs I 
would run into while running check & repair on your book. I will treat it with the proper respect 
for your privacy (that is: I won't share it nor its contents with anyone else and I will strictly only 
use it to run my check & repair tests).

Regards,

Geert
