Very strange.  I get two results.

First, following your instructions, by coping and pasting
Ernie at Ernie-Mac-mini contents % zsh -df
Ernie-Mac-mini% /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/gnucash-cli -Q info
Application Path /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/gnucash-cli
Failed to initialize Finance::Quote: missing_modules JSON::Parse

But when I type in the command line:

Ernie-Mac-mini% /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/macOS/gnucash-cli -Q info
Application Path /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/macOS/gnucash-cli
* 11:01:28  WARN <gnc.engine> failed to load gncmod-backend-dbi from relative path 
* 11:01:28 ERROR <gnc.engine> required library gncmod-backend-dbi not found.
* 11:01:28  WARN <gnc.engine> failed to load gncmod-backend-xml from relative path 
* 11:01:28 ERROR <gnc.engine> required library gncmod-backend-xml not found.
* 11:01:28 ERROR <GLib-GIO> g_settings_schema_source_lookup: assertion 'source != NULL' failed
* 11:01:28 ERROR <GLib-GIO> g_settings_new_full: assertion 'schema != NULL' failed
* 11:01:28  WARN <gnc.app-utils.gsettings> [gnc_gsettings_get_settings_obj()] Ignoring attempt to access unknown gsettings schema org.gnucash.GnuCash.general
zsh: segmentation fault  /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/macOS/gnucash-cli -Q info

The two command lines are seemingly the same, but the difference is macOS and MacOS.  I thought the shell was not case sensitive.  hmmmm  The behavior is the same when I exit from the default shell.

I did check the directory and it is MacOS.

Ernie-Mac-mini% cd /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents
Ernie-Mac-mini% ls
Info.plist	MacOS		PkgInfo		Resources	_CodeSignature
Ernie-Mac-mini% 

Odd that it would behave differently.

Thoughts?

Ernie
