[GNC] Scheduled Transactions creating but not posting in register

[dennis adams]

John,
Have still been unable to get Gnucash to write to Terminal using  /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash to open with the variable you provided.  Was able to see trace file by following  "/var/folders/ms/pc_fwkwn16nds1fhz45ztmph0000gp/T/gnucash.trace” path in Finder rood directory.  First time there was no .trace file.  Opened GC and file was immediately created, but it was empty.  I made some changes and saved GC and closed.  The file then contained data.  I have attached the file in hopes it will show what is wrong with scheduled transactions being created but not posting to the register.
On another thought, I am running GC4.8.  If I install GC4.9 will whatever the scheduled transaction issue carry over to the new version (ie is it in my data file) or will it resolve because instructions for scheduled transactions are in the program?
Thanks

I also opened GnuCash in the Terminal hoping to see what happened when it opened.  Gnucash opened, but I got no output using command:

open -a Gnucash.app

Is there something else I need to add to this command to get terminal output when opening Gnucash from Terminal?


Using the `open` command in Terminal is the same as double-clicking its icon in Finder: It tells Launch Services to start GnuCash either with no stdin, stdout, or stderr or with stdout and stderr connected to Console.app depending on macOS version. To have a stdin, stdout, and stderr connection to the shell running in Terminal you must run GnuCash directly; if you installed it in /Applicattions you'd use
  /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash

By default GnuCash writes its log to a file named gnucash.trace. This is most easily accessed using an environment variable $TMPDIR, so you could use
  less $TMPDIR/gnucash.trace
to read it. On macOS and other unix platforms it is overwritten with every launch of GnuCash. You can read more about it at https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Tracefile.

To get GnuCash to write to the terminal, pass --logto=stderr on the terminal command above. More information about how to configure logging may be found at https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Logging.

John Ralls
