<p>I had the same situation. If I remember correctly, It was caused by setting up Moneydance+ and subsequently deactivating it.</p>
<p>Stuart's Toolbox option "ZAP your Moneydance+ (Plaid) settings (only when status is NOT 'activated')" resolved the issue. Again, if I remember correctly.</p>
<p>So, as long as you're NOT using Moneydance+, you may want to give 'ZAP' a try.</p>
<p>Be sure to follow the Toolbox prompt to backup your data file before making any changes to Moneydance.</p>

yes if the console window is open the errlog.txt file grows quickly.<br>
so these messages not only trash the console window but also the errtxt.log<br>
I use the console window to debug Jython scripts .<br>
It used to work fine. ( a few years ago).<br>
I guess I could stop using the console window and look in the errlog.txt file for my<br>
script crashes</p></div>waynelloydsmithtag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/578520522023-02-09T15:18:39Z2023-02-09T15:18:39ZConsole Window filling up<div><p>not sure what moneydance+ is .<br>
what ever it is I don't think I'm running it.<br>
also what is Stuart's Toolbox<br>
Thanks<br>

You probably activated a profile by mistake even if you are not using it. Thus toolbox can zap the profile away for you.</p>
<p>Toolbox is magic!</p>
<p>More specifically. Menu. Extensions. Manage extensions. Available. Toolbox. Install.<br>
Then extensions. Toolbox. Then update mode. Online banking tools. Zap md+ license.</p></div>Stuart Beesley (Mr Toolbox)tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/578520522023-02-09T18:28:15Z2023-02-09T18:28:15ZConsole Window filling up<div><p>so I debugged my jython scripts using moneybot and the errlog.txt file<br>
It worked ok. maybe even better than the console window.<br>
so don't use the console window ever.<br>
I still consider this to be a bug. Having an errlog.txt file secretly growing into a huge file because I have the console window open isn't very cool feature.<br>
The moneybot window could use a "clear" and "copy to clipboard" button like the console window has .<br>
Thanks for the help<br>

for my investment accounts I down load .csv files and post them into moneydance with home brew jython scripts (monthly). I also get the end of day close prices (US and Canadian) with jython scripts from <a href="http://www.stockwatch.com">www.stockwatch.com</a> every day (a subscription service)...So debugging jython scripts is a big deal to me. I don't think md+ would be much help to me. The 2 banks I deal with are pretty careful and what I have works for me (today). The moneydance switch from jdk8 to jdk10 broke some of my jython scripts but I got them working now.<br>
thanks again<br>

And if you use toolbox to zap the md+ license it will help further and those md+ polling messages should stop. Try it.</p></div>Stuart Beesley (Mr Toolbox)tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/578520522023-02-09T20:06:31Z2023-02-09T20:06:31ZConsole Window filling up<div><p>As for Moneybot output. Two suggestions.<br>
1. Knock up your own console window<br>
2. Capture your script output to a string/file and then popup display it on screen.</p></div>Stuart Beesley (Mr Toolbox)tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/578520522023-02-09T22:54:55Z2023-02-09T22:54:55ZConsole Window filling up<div><p>Ok I tried the Toolbox->Online Banking-> ZAP.<br>
and it looks like it worked :)<br>
No more garbage on the Console.<br>
Ya I have two home brew Jython Consoles that I retired but maybe I'll<br>
Dig one of them out again .<br>
I was happy to retire them when the MoneyBot window showed up because I had one less custom jython script to maintain.<br>
That toolbox was a great tip.<br>
Thanks again<br>
