Description Fossie Ferreira 2011-01-30 15:16:12 UTC

Version:           4.5.2 (using KDE 4.5.4) 
OS:                MS Windows

One of my banks give me OFX and QIF files that I can use in Kmymoney but the other gives me only QIF files. OFX files import fine but QIF doesn't. The importer opens, you select the file and when you click import, the application goes grey and stops working. I have to kill it in the task manager. I used this tool many times on my Ubuntu machine no problem. During installation I noticed that one file "libopen" something or the other failed it's checksum thingey. I re-installed and also tried to install a previous version of KDE but it didn't work. Perhaps there is a relation? 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1 Click file >> Import >> QIF
2 Browse to select the file
3 default QIF profile and QIF source = "bank statement"
4 click import



Actual Results:  
All the menu items and icons in the side pane go grey-ish and the application stops responding completely

Expected Results:  
a message saying "import completed" or some such

OS: WindowsNT (i686) release Windows 7 (Ultimate)
Compiler: cl.exe

About the attachment: It's a real QIF file that fails to import in my installation. I just deleted some of the description data in notepad so that it's gibberish but the file is intact otherwise.

It's a real QIF file that fails to import in my
installation. I just deleted some of the description data in notepad so that
it's gibberish but the file is intact otherwise.

What about the CPU load in that state? Does it go up? If not, is there a hidden window somewhere waiting for input?

The file imports OK here.  Presumably you've tried the same file on your Ubuntu PC?  Can you start KMM from the command line and see if any interesting messages pop up.

I hope your understanding of English is better than my French.

Can you start KMyMoney from the command line, and see if any helpful messages appear.

What revision do you use, and what distro?  It would probably have been better if you had opened a new bug, to capture this information, referring to this bug, which seems to be sleeping.

How long did you wait for the import to finish?

Can you see any information on the status line at the bottom of the window?
