SUMMARY
Normally there is a table of Assets/Liabilities on the home page.  These are not showing.  Similarly, in the reports section, I can see charts but not reports.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
macOS:  5.1.3
Comment 1 Jack 2024-08-02 00:14:08 UTC
I was going to close this as a duplicate of Bug 468936, but that one got closed as WORKSFORME because the OP didn't respond to questions about details of their setup.  Basically, the "missing" sections are rendered using HTML, so the problem is figuring why that is the case.  I thought there had been a solution, but will need to do some further research to find that information.

However, if this problem just started for you, is this a new installation of KMyMoney, or else what has recently changed or been upgraded?

In the meantime, I did find one post suggesting that something had changed either in the rendering or the package building, so it would be good if you could at least try using the development version, built from master branch, rather than either the stable 5.1.3 or even git head of the 5.1 git branch.
Comment 2 Richard Harries 2024-08-02 09:40:09 UTC
Hi Jack.

Thanks for responding so quickly.  I did see the previous bug report had been closed without resolution.  I also suspected it must be some sort of rendering error, since everything else is working perfectly.  I'll try using the development version and report back.
Comment 3 Richard Harries 2024-08-04 09:58:28 UTC
Okay, I tested out the development version and that did correct the display problems HOWEVER it also threw up two new issues.

1. It said the data file failed the consistency tests for some old entries.  This has never occurred with previous versions.
2. It 'forgot' my Favourite, customised reports.

So, I'm going to stick with 5.1.2 stable for the time being.
Comment 4 Jack 2024-08-04 14:52:53 UTC
Over the years, many new checks have been added to the consistency test, so new issues showing up is not a surprise.  Please say what types of messages you get and we can suggest how to resolve them.
When you say it forgot  some reports, did it just no longer mark some reports as favorites, or did it seem to actually forget the report?  In the latter case, if you Save As with the new version (be sure to keep a copy of the original data file) is the report now missing if you open that new file with the old version of the program?  I want to be sure there isn't something in the old report which the new program fails to read correctly.

I would very much appreciate some feedback and details on the "disappearing favorite reports".

Sorry for the delay replying.  On the consistency checks, it really seemed to mess with my .kmy file, reducing it from ~960KB to 306KB.  On the reports, it just dropped the entire section 11, Favorite Reports, which has around 20 or so custom reports I have built up over the years.

That does not sound right. What is the exact version of your failing KMyMoney application (see Help/About KMyMoney). As example, mine currently says "5.1.80-30e479294".

Thanks. This commit is dated Mar 12, 2024. On May 17, 2024 we added this commit: https://invent.kde.org/office/kmymoney/-/commit/b2067be54 which solves a problem with invalid XML in the file. I expect this to be the case for the trouble you experience with the shortened file. The current build of the MacOS version on the KDE CI/CD system still seems to be broken. I set the status of this bug entry back to REPORTED so that you can check once we are able to see a newer version.
