Description jfgregoire 2011-12-01 13:53:00 UTC
Version:           4.5.3 (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

I tried selectign different files. If the file doesn't content the right format, the system react and say that the format is wrong. But when selecting the right import file the message change and it says that it cannot find the file.

It's a big problem for me because we arrive in the end of the year and I have to prepare my official accountability. I didn't find a way to turn around.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
file/import/ofx/select a file

Actual Results:  
cannot find the file

Expected Results:  
selecting the file and import, as it did since 2 years monthly 

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 3.0.0-14-generic
Compiler: gcc

character encoding pb?

In your Subject you mention QIF anf OFX.  As they both are just text files, an editor should be able to open them.  Also, can you open the files with your usual file manager?  If that works, would you try using either Dolphin or Konqueror to open it.  Also, if you have a previous version/backup file would you try that.

Can you think of anything that's changed on your system since you last tried to load an ofx file?

Finally, Version:4.5.3 is now quite old and you would be well advised to get 4.6.0 or 4.6.1.  The Claydoh PPA is a good source.  Remember to uninstall the old version first.

Comment 2 jfgregoire 2011-12-01 16:59:42 UTC
I'm able to open my ofx and also the qif with any text editor. I tried 
also to import an old ofx which I already import two months ago.
But, indeed, there had been a big change since the last success. I had 
to reinstall the system pasing from kubunyu natty narwal to oeneric 
ocelot (the last one). Then I got the Kmymoney which was in the 
standard repository (consistent, isn't it?). It found and opened  
without any problem my previous .kmy file which was still in my home 
directory.
I got the point about the version.
Thanks

There has been no change in the .kmy format between releases, and you confirm below you are able to open your old version.  Your current version must be OK to get to the point of importing.

Is it possible to email me a copy qif file giving the problem, with any private data disguised, but without changing the format?

Comment 4 jfgregoire 2011-12-01 17:33:43 UTC
Here is the file.
I tried to disguise a file as a fake ofx and the system read it just to 
return that the structure was wrong.
Looks like when the module enter the import itself (after structure 
check), it loose the path. Could it be some character encoding problem 
(utf8 or so)?

I received the file this morning via email.

I'm pleased to say it imported without trouble, so I'm sorry to say you have a problem on your system.

I would make sure that you de-install both ofx, libofx and KMyMoney, with no lingering old files left behind, then re-install them. and try again.  It would appear something has gone missing or been corrupted, or is the wrong revision.

Try to get KMM 4.6.1 if you can.
Comment 7 jfgregoire 2011-12-02 11:25:12 UTC
Dear Alan,
Thank you for your time.
I had little doubt about your success.
Anyway, here is the error message in French (and its translation) that I 
get as soon as I click on the file in the file selection dialog box:

Impossible de trouver le fichier
"/home/jfg/Documents/consultant.org/compta/tele.OFX"

which means: Impossible to find the file....

Is this message correct? Where does it come from?
It would be of some help for me to identify the problem.
Again thank you

I'm afraid this is outside my small area of expertise, so I resorted to Google, and found quite a few references, which suggest it is a language problem.

If your problem is confined to KMyMoney, then I would go back to my recommendation to update.  Apart from the benefit of recent bug fixes, there has been work recently on French language translations.

If that doesn't help, let us know and we'll see if another team can help.

Comment 9 allan 2011-12-02 13:16:05 UTC
It might be worth trying 'kmymoney --lang=C' .
You will run the original English version.
Comment 10 Jack 2011-12-02 15:56:59 UTC
I believe all the recent problems with the French translation were only related to the manual, not the program itself, but trying as Allan suggested is still a good idea.  

Can you show the results of "ls -l /home/jfg/Documents/consultant.org/compta/tele.OFX" just in case it is a strange permission problem.  Do you use acl's?  Could there be something strange about the mount parameters for that file system?  You already said you open the file with a text editor, but can you try to open it specifically with another KDE program, which would use the same file handling libraries?  One other thought - does it work if you copy/move the OFX file to the same directory where your .kmy file is located?
Comment 11 jfgregoire 2011-12-02 18:50:57 UTC
I already checked the access right; fyi here it is:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 jfg jfg 7311 2011-12-01 11:02 
/home/jfg/Documents/consultant.org/compta/ tele.OFX

I also tried to change the file of place, to change its cases (OFX 
insteed of ofx), to change the name. Nothing changed.
I guess it looses the path when entering in the process itself.
And as I see that Ubuntu 11.10 don't accept the last kmm version, I 
begin to think that there could a ubuntu libofx pb.
When I try importing through Aqbanking assistant, it freezes on the last 
step before importation is launched.

By the way, the problem was the same with a qif import

You're running a Gnome system with a KDE program.  Can we come back to the suggestion I made earlier, echoed by Jack, to try to access the files with another KDE program, KWite,Dolphin, Konqueror.  These points are important in identifying the problem area.

Also, I suggested using the Claydoh PPA to get the latest version of KMM.
Comment 14 Jack 2011-12-02 20:52:58 UTC
Since the failure is the same with qif as with ofx or OFX, it is not likely a problem with libofx, but with the routine that actually opens and reads the file.  If another KDE program has the same failure, that will give us more information about where to look.  Knowing what type of file system the file resides on might also provide a clue.
Comment 15 jfgregoire 2011-12-03 08:47:23 UTC
Thank you for your times all of you.
First of all, I'm running KDE environment (4.7.2).
Secondly, I already add the Claydoh ppa repository to my system. And the 
last version I could get (through apt-get) is only 4.5.3, the one I 
already have installed.
And thirdly I don't have any other file access problem with any tool.
I would have been on windows, I would begin to think "virus", but on 
linux...

Comment 16 jfgregoire 2011-12-03 10:33:22 UTC
OK:
I copied my kmy file on another machine with kubuntu 10.10 64 bits and 
Kmymoney 4.5.3 (natty narwhal) and the import worked perfectly, as I was 
used to.
I also tried on a kubuntu 11.10 32 bits and the import failed as I 
described before.

My conclusion is that the file selection module changed between this two 
versions of system and that Kmymoney developer should try to take this 
in account.

Does it make sense for you?
Thank you.

Ah, that's interesting.  Claydoh does have 4.6.1, but I see he was asked to
remove it from the PPA.  However, it does say he can still supply it directly.

Just need to be a bit more specific, I'm afraid.  Have you tried either Dolphin
or Konqueror or KWrite?  They are KDE programs, whereas the gedit, etc. are
Gnome based.
Comment 18 jfgregoire 2011-12-03 14:20:37 UTC
Sorry,
for me it was obvious: I quite never use gnome tools.. I'm under KDE.
I never had any problem to open the files, especially with kate or 
konqueror.
...
Sorry again, I just discovered that this mail of yours to which I was 
answering, was answering to a previous one of mines.
I let you discover my last mail from this saturday morning.

My reply to your previous email clashed with this one, so got out of step!

I'm not sure I draw the same conclusion as you.  The problem started for you when you updated your distro.  If kubuntu 10.10 had Kmymoney 4.5.3 and you are still using 4.5.3, then, to me, that sounds like Kubuntu/Ubuntu (or its libraries) is causing the problem.

Have you queried their forums?  I've seen that people are successfully running on 11.10 a KMM 4.6.1 that they have built.  I would try them as well, but we're not giving up!

For sure, something changed in the kubuntu libraries...
I didn't find references of people running KMM 4.6 on Ubuntu 11.10 from 
scratch (meaning, installing a bin).
I feel myself lonesome in a kind of no man's land between Ubuntu and kmm.
One changed some function, the other didn't follow ....
Most of users don't use this functionality...
I'll try to continue to refine my diagnosis.

Comment 21 jfgregoire 2011-12-03 16:08:58 UTC
Forget Allan.
I did a test I never did before:
I said you that the file is opened with kate without any problem: its 
true if you click on it inside dolphin and use the contextual menu (or 
action) to open it.
But, this time, I first opened kate then tried to open this file from 
kate, and.... same pb than for kmm.
The pb appends for the files I downloaded from  my bank yesterday, and 
even for their copies.
Weird...
Thank you for your time Allan.
I continue searching.

Ah, that's interesting!  I've just installed Kubuntu 11.10 (32 bit, I think)) and installed KMM 4.5.3, loaded a file and successfully imported a qif file, but the OFX failed as you found.  Also, I confirm what you found with Kate and OFX, but it handles QIF.  Possibly a problem with their libOFX?

Good luck.

Allan

It could be the way Ubuntu has packaged KMM.

It might be worthwhile trying the Claydoh 4.5.3.
Comment 24 jfgregoire 2011-12-03 16:36:01 UTC
Final touch:
You open your ofx with Kate (through dolphin, as I said in my previous 
mail) then you save it under another name and then the file is healed: 
you can import it.
Another guess: end file management for files coming from other systems 
(windows)?

Ah, well spotted.  That's a bug for (K)Ubuntu then.
