Description antgweb 2013-12-31 06:56:23 UTC
I downloaded 2.6.0 and it crashes on startup. The programmer starts and as the windows open they suddenly terminate. I'm running 2.4.13 and don't have these issues. I've tried 

Mac OS: version 10.8.5
Model: MacBook Pro 

Thank you for an excellent programme.

If you open /Applications/Utilities/Console, you should find a crash report under "User Diagnostic Reports" in the sidebar (if the sidebar isn't visible, click "Show Log List" at the left end of the tool bar). Please attach it to the bug.

Please also open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal and run the following:
/Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash
and paste any output to a new comment on the bug.

Thanks. The console has no crash report.

The terminal indicated that there's a locale problem. I'm in South Africa.

OK, that's a duplicate of 721260. I've got it fixed in git. In the meantime you can run
 defaults write -app Gnucash AppleLocale en_GB
to work around it.
