Hi,

I am a new user of MacOS having recently bought a MacBook Air (after many years of being a Gnucash user on Windows and Linux).

I was able to open my existing GnuCash file and add some transactions.  But after closing GnuCash and trying to re-open the file I get the following error:

GnuCash could not complete a critical test for the presence of a bug in the "libdbi" library. This may be caused by a permissions misconfiguration of your SQL database. Please see https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645216 for more information.

This looks like a very old bug that was resolved long ago.  I see comment #19 suggests to copy the file but that did not work for me.

Any other advice I should consider?

My system is: 
MacOS Monterey version 12.5.
GnuCash Version: 4.11, Build ID: 4.11+(2022-06-25)

Thanks,
Ken
