[GNC] How to troubleshot a "Report error"

[Lipp F.]

Hi Christopher,

Your suggestion about verifying pricedb was invaluable. I cannot thank you
enough.

I was able to identify the security responsable by disabling sub-accounts,
one by one, until I was left with only the one generation the error. I have
checked  pricedb for that specific security and I've noticed that prices
prior to Jul 9 are recorded fractional (as 273 + 342939880122/353546268167)
but displayed correctly (as 273.97). So, it was enough to edit the entry
and re-enter the correct decimal value and everything works fine.
