00:04:35 *** fell_laptop is now known as fell
00:31:02 <peanutbutterandcrackers> While trying to request an account in the wiki, I got the following error (URL: https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Special:RequestAccount): Internal error
00:31:02 <peanutbutterandcrackers> [XMvD0rYP6HlQqrPcSO-3IgAAAw4] 2019-05-03 04:30:10: Fatal exception of type "Error"
00:44:53 <fell> warlord: have you any log entries about the wiki requestaccount failure?
00:48:46 <fell> BTW I was already wondering, why we got no requests in the last quarter year.
00:50:43 <fell> OTOH I just requested successfully for an account, but as I later saw, I was already logged in with my normal account.

02:38:32 <gjanssens> peanutbutterandcrackers: why do you want to set AutoPay to True if it also works when it's False ?
02:40:41 <peanutbutterandcrackers> gjanssens, Because setting autopay will actually deal with arrears invoices, etc. For eg: If a customer makes a payment, calling the method on the gncbook with autopay set to false will result in the payment being of type 'pre-payment' whereas if auto-pay is set to true, it will be a payment for an outstanding invoice.
02:41:16 <peanutbutterandcrackers> gjanssens, I have come to realize that AutoPay is my friend. :)
02:48:29 <gjanssens> If you set AutoPay to false the function will follow a different code path in which it will check the existence of the GList.
02:48:38 <gjanssens> Perhaps that's not working properly.
02:48:56 <gjanssens> Can you do the same from within gnucash ?
02:49:17 <gjanssens> That is
02:50:03 <gjanssens> - in Preferences, enable Auto payment for customer invoices
02:50:23 <gjanssens> - (make sure there's no outstanding payment for the test customer
02:50:29 <gjanssens> - create an invoice and post it
02:50:59 <gjanssens> - choose Process Payment, select the customer, set an amount, and make sure no invoice is selected
02:51:01 <gjanssens> - hit apply
02:51:19 <gjanssens> Do you see the same warnings in the gnucash trace file ?
02:51:45 <gjanssens> (assuming the invoice was automatically paid as well using this method)
02:52:00 <gjanssens> If the errors are there as well, it's a bug in the gnucash engine
02:52:08 <gjanssens> If not, it's a bug in the python bindings

03:32:27 <peanutbutterandcrackers> gjanssens, Sorry I couldn't find a checkbox for 'autopayment' under preferences. Perhaps it's under a different name (and I am not looking properly)
03:32:29 <peanutbutterandcrackers> ?
03:34:35 <peanutbutterandcrackers> Oh wait I think I've got it. Just a few more sec.
03:37:12 <peanutbutterandcrackers> gjanssens, I think yes:
03:37:16 <peanutbutterandcrackers> 13:13 $ gnucash foobar.gnucash

08:36:10 <warlord> fell, thanks. let me look.
08:36:36 <warlord> fell, I did see a request today..
08:37:05 <fell> That was my test
08:38:28 <warlord> AH.
08:41:11 <warlord> Interesting. Yes, I can reproduce. If I am logged in, I see this page. If I am NOT logged in, I cannot.
08:51:54 <warlord> fell, Just found an interesting topic at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:ConfirmAccount -- testing now.
08:52:13 <warlord> Nope, that's not it.
08:56:32 <warlord> I might need to upgrade the extension..
09:01:12 <warlord> And... there we go.
09:01:48 <warlord> I might need to upgrade two other extensions...
09:02:43 <fell> ;-)the usual update orgy
09:03:45 <warlord> Yeah. This is why I hate installing non-RPMed packages ..
09:09:27 <warlord> Okay, upgraded..
09:09:29 <warlord> *grumbles*
09:21:43 *** nimish2711 has quit IRC
09:29:22 *** Mechtilde has quit IRC
09:30:10 <fell> warlord, did you test it?
09:34:42 <warlord> Only so far as seeing that the page comes up when not logged in. Haven't tried the rest.
09:38:31 <fell> Probably we should send a note to all lists as I did not see requests since 2019-02-01
09:39:00 <fell> and put it in news
09:41:16 <fell> Waou, you can now upload your CV

09:47:02 <fell> I currently get "Attachment file type is disallowed." for the README from gnucash as CV, but it does not tell, which types are allowed.
09:50:25 <fell> FDL.txt works. ;-)
09:52:39 <fell> Special:RequestAccount completed, but no request in my inbox. :-(
09:54:17 <fell> May be a typo in my email address.
09:55:25 <warlord> May 3 09:50:30 code postfix/smtp[23870]: 1092768D9E: to=<frank.ellenberger@gmx.net>, relay=mx01.emig.gmx.net[212.227.17.5]:25, delay=27, delays=0.05/0.02/26/1.1, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 Requested mail action okay, completed: id=1M1HNK-1hKugp2d6A-002qfR)
10:00:22 <fell> That is a mixture between my accounts.
10:01:31 <fell> But the request was in Special:ConfirmAccounts
10:01:46 <fell> So it is working.

10:26:03 <warlord> i can, but probably not until late this afternoon US/EDT

12:11:41 <GumShoe> I've had ofx direct connection setup for one of my banks tested and working. I haven't used the connection in a year... Now it's not working. I enabled the log and set it not to close check this; "Status for signon request: USERPASS lockout (Code 15502, severity "ERROR")" and "The server has received too many failed signon attempts for this user. Please call the FI's technical support number."
12:12:42 <GumShoe> Any changes in aqBanking in the last year? Is there a way to make the log even more verbose?
12:15:43 <GumShoe> My bank is convinced that I'm not locked out...
12:17:08 <fell> There are almost daily changes in aqbanking: https://www.aquamaniac.de/rdm/projects/aqbanking/repository
12:17:43 <fell> but not so often releases: https://www.aquamaniac.de/rdm/
12:18:22 <fell> Which version on your computer is, depends i.e. on your OS.
12:18:41 <fell> or distribution.
12:18:53 *** nimish2711 has quit IRC
12:20:02 <GumShoe> windows 10 Version: 3.5 / AqBanking v5.7.8.0stable
12:20:52 *** jervin has joined #gnucash
12:22:18 *** jervin has quit IRC
12:24:40 <fell> 5.7.8 is from 2018-02-11
12:28:20 <fell> The last change, which I see on our bundling is before our 3.0 release.
12:30:25 <fell> Perhaps you should start with https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/AqBanking#Debugging
12:31:09 *** storyjesse has quit IRC
12:31:17 <fell> You could at first look in the log location and search the recent file
12:31:58 <fell> Sorry, it is /tmp/ofx.log
12:31:59 *** nicoroumeau has quit IRC
12:36:04 <GumShoe> Interesting. I just upgraded to 3 last week. The process uninstalled 2.6... and then installed 3.5.1 Wonder why it'd didn't use the most recent stable aqBanking?
12:37:05 <fell> In 2.6 many things have been different.

19:28:56 <GumShoe> Windows folks... I wrote a .CMD file to start GNUCash after setting export AQOFX_LOG_COMM=1 export AQOFXCONNECT_LOGLEVEL=info b4 running gnucash.exe What's this about setting the .exe from Windows to Console? I'm not seeing that in properties I'm on Windows 10
19:29:20 <GumShoe> I'm trying to get verbose logging from aqBanking.
19:31:17 <GumShoe> I think this is missing from the wiki https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Windows#Console_output_and_exetype It's a see also link from this page; https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/AqBanking#Debugging
19:34:44 <jralls> GumShoe: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/574911/difference-between-windows-and-console-application
19:36:11 <GumShoe> Here is my .CMD file https://pastebin.com/N42Azr8t
19:37:01 *** oozer has quit IRC
19:37:06 <jralls> GumShoe: There's a perl script at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Gnucash/gnucash-on-windows/master/exetype.pl to flip the byte.

19:41:16 <GumShoe> FWIW I tried a bit installing 3.5 on my debian stretch running gnome but seems I couldn't get all the dependicies without enabling buster which I'm not sure I want to do... I've got Linux all over the house and cloude, but servers generally. I use windows 10 as my workstation...
19:41:31 <jralls> Unix commands don't work in CMD, so it's (IIRC) set rather than export. But I don't think that a "Windows" program will attach to a CMD shell that way.
19:41:54 <GumShoe> :-) umm... I'm aware...
19:42:38 <jralls> Yes, GnuCash 3 is still in testing on Debian, but Ubuntu 19.04 has it already. You could set up a VM.
19:42:58 <GumShoe> Ohh you're talking about the export. Yea maybe set. Would be good example to include...
19:44:13 <GumShoe> A couple things Windows gnuc doesn't support, like starting in experimental mode. I'm interested in the Transaction Create Data for one, and now today fiddling with debugging aqBanking...
19:44:56 <GumShoe> Transaction Create Data Date - not data
19:45:45 <jralls> It *does* support that, you just edit the Start Menu or Desktop shortcut file to add the command-line options you want to the executable path (after the quotes and with a space) or launch from a shell. I much prefer Powershell to CMD.
19:46:14 <GumShoe> I am using powershell.
19:46:37 <jralls> Well then why did you say you were using CMD?
19:47:04 <GumShoe> Maybe I should join gnucash-devel. I asked on users yesterday and was led to believe that Windows version doesn't support experimental features.
19:47:10 <GumShoe> .CMD file
19:47:25 <jralls> But I don't think a Windows program launched from Powershell gets stdout either. You have to have an MSYS2 shell for that.
19:48:01 <GumShoe> Would I have to go through the set variables if I launch if from mysys2?
19:48:34 <jralls> It depends on the experimental feature. It doesn't support anything to do with Python, but otherwise it's the same build as everything else.
19:48:49 *** nicoroumeau has quit IRC
19:48:55 <jralls> MSYS2 is Unixish so you'd export there.
19:49:34 <GumShoe> I have wsl installed, I don't think they have any windowing support yet...
19:49:46 <jralls> WSL?
19:50:00 <GumShoe> Windows SubSystem for Linux. Very handy.
19:50:04 *** Aussie_matt has joined #gnucash
19:50:13 <GumShoe> I have mingw installed. Maybe I have mysys already
19:50:22 <jralls> Right, on my list to play with if I ever have time.
19:51:38 <jralls> There's MinGW and MinGW-W64. They're a bit different, but MinGW might be close enough to be able to run GnuCash from a shell. It's worth a try.
19:52:21 <GumShoe> Actually it's installed on my win 10 machine in the electronics lab....
19:53:34 <GumShoe> Are there any docker images of gnucash on linux?
19:55:04 <GumShoe> several times today I threw up my hands exclaiming; I'll just download the .ofx!
19:58:03 <jralls> googling finds three, and there's a flatpak at https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gnucash.GnuCash
19:59:38 <jralls> GTG, but parting thought: You know that AQBanking works only with OFX Direct Connect and not with OFX WebConnect, right? Lots of banks only support the latter, including quite a few that supported Direct Connect before.
20:02:19 <GumShoe> My aqBankikng was working well for awhile. It's using OFX Direct connect
20:14:51 <GumShoe> This syntax didn't give errors! :-) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Preview\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.20.27607\bin\Hostx86\x86\editbin.exe" /subsystem:CONSOLE "C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin\gnucash.exe"
20:15:20 <GumShoe> I had editbin with my visual studio 019 preview
20:18:50 *** nimish2711 has quit IRC
20:41:51 <GumShoe> Yo! @jralls would you look at the bottom of https://pastebin.com/N42Azr8t see if that looks like debug info from startup of GnuCash? I think I have gnucash.exe set as a console now. Not getting any aqBanking debug though. I just want to be sure I have the gnucash.exe file set correctly to enable debugging.

22:42:11 <peanutbutterandcrackers> This might not be entirely gnucash related, but does anybody know how one might get the current locale's monetary system's name (code)?
22:43:19 <peanutbutterandcrackers> Instead of hard-coding the code in NPR = GNCBook.get_table().lookup('CURRENCY', 'NPR'), I'd like to be able to 1. use user-specified format (no problem) 2. Fall back to system default if the user hasn't specified anything
23:01:52 <peanutbutterandcrackers> Okay I figured it out. Here's the function if anybody ever needs it:
23:02:11 <peanutbutterandcrackers> NPR = GNCBook.get_table().lookup('CURRENCY', 'NPR')
23:02:17 <peanutbutterandcrackers> Ooops. Sorry.
23:02:24 <peanutbutterandcrackers> Here:
23:02:27 <peanutbutterandcrackers> def getDefaultCurrency():
23:02:27 <peanutbutterandcrackers> import locale
23:02:28 <peanutbutterandcrackers> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "")
23:02:28 <peanutbutterandcrackers> return locale.localeconv()['int_curr_symbol'].strip()
