[GNC] Gnucash 3 unable to recognise SQLITE files on MAC OSX

[Peter Rowed]

Hello,

My Gnucash v3.0 install cannot recognise my Gnucash 2.x SQLITE data base

I am running on Gnucash Version 3.0., Build ID git 3.0+(2018-04-01) on:

- MacOS High Sierra Version 10.13.14
- iMac Mid 2010

On starting Gnucash, get message:

- "No suitable backend was found for /Users/peterrowed/Data/HC.gnucash

where it is trying to open HC.gnucash which is my live Gnucash 2.6.18 file (SQLITE).

I have tried 2 other databases that give the same error. All 3 database are functioning normally with Gnucash 2.6.18

Ignoring the error and going to create a new data base and save (as SQLITE) I am only presented with the XML format in the drop down of the Save As tile.

I downloaded the dmg, opened it and dragged the Gnucash.app to the Applications directory.

in the [Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/lib](http://Gnucash.all/Contents/Resources/lib) there is a file called libsqlite3.0.dylib

However I have not changed my $PATH. I have never had to do that in the past.

Can you help me

Thanks

Regards Peter
