HomeBank

Failing to import QIF files

Asked by Giorgos Gerakakis

Hello :-)

First of all, allow me to congratulate the creators of HomeBank for both their work but also for their precious time.

Just started evaluating HomeBank 4.5.5 on Xubuntu 14.04 along with GnuCash (seems powerful, but maybe too powerful, took me some hours to figure out double entry accounting stuff).
I am facing an issue but I cannot spot what am I doing wrong.
I am trying to import the a QIF file whose contents are the below (content within the ---> and <----):

---->
!Account
NWallet
TCash
^
!Type:Cash
D12/09/2014
PSklavenitis
LExpenses:SuperMarket
T-1.47
^
<---

However, although HomeBank recognizes it properly as a QIF file, it reports that there are 0 accounts, 0 transactions, 0 payee, 0 categorie.

Could you kindly shed some light on this?
Let me know for any additional information required.

Regards,
Giorgos

Is there any debug flag I could switch so as to further investigate?

Here is the solution,

you have to update Homebank

'sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mdoyen/homebank'
'sudo apt-get update'
'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade'
