Please set it to a reasonable value and start KMyMoney again."), i18n("Invalid settings")); delete a; exit(1); } }}} There needs to be a value, otherwise the whole application would not work properly.

I haven't yet found where the settings are stored, but I assume somewhere under ~/.kde4.

They are stored in ~/.kde4/share/config/kdeglobals. Here you see the German version :) {{{ [Locale] DecimalSymbol=, MonetaryDecimalSymbol=, MonetaryThousandsSeparator=. ThousandsSeparator=. }}} There can also be global places, but the exact location depend on the distro as it seems to me. In case the value returned is empty, there must be a setting somewhere, as the default in code when no entry is found is ',' and '.' as used in the US locale. Note: On my openSUSE system, I found /etc/kde4/share/config/kdeglobals. Hope that helps.

If you already do that, play with your locales: {{{ export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 }}} ...or whatever your home/preferred language may be. Please report back if that helps. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/31295#comment:8> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

In my kdeglobals I actually do not have such an entry, but when I insert it without the dot after the equal sign I also get exactly your error message. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/31295#comment:11> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
