Hi everyone,

Just evaluating 4.0 on Windows 10, sqlite3 backend, before a full switch. I
have noticed that gnucash-cli.exe does not seem to work:

C:\tools\gnucash\bin>gnucash-cli.exe --debug --quotes get <file name>
...................

* 08:54:19 ERROR <gnc.gui> [scm_cleanup_and_exit_with_failure()] Session
Error: failed to get_backend using access method "C"

Same error for reporting:

C:\tools\gnucash\bin>gnucash-cli.exe --debug --report run --name="Advanced
Portfolio" --output-file=rpt.html  <file name>


I would assume that  "failed to get_backend using access method "C"
" refers somehow to the book file but after trying backslash, slash and
double backslash in the file name, the result is the same.

Any suggestions? Thanks.
