It must be a date entry related issue. IMHO
Are you sure you entered the right invoice date..sorry I could be wrong. Also what version of FA you are running?
Please don't mess up with editing the DB directly. You will never get around it..one will end up with a messy business overall.

@notrinos
Your repo is working fine from Godaddy. Thanks.

@notrinos
repo.notrinos.com does not respond to ping from anywhere as we speak. Is it on purpose?

@joe and @itronics
Just to rule out Godaddy I installed FA in another service provider (AWARDSPACE.com). Unfortunately I received the same error.
Cannot download repo index file.
So there might be something that went wrong with repo.frontaccounting.eu. Can someone please take a look at that.

I think @joe or @janusz might be able to shed some info on this if they see possible.

I honestly dont know how it was previously. What I have always done is unzip/tar the archive file into a folder/directory. Give folder/file permissions (755/644) and then start the installer. The installation Guide clearly mentions "Please ensure that the folder /company/0 on the server is writable."

@mandeepmavi,
All the files you mentioned are not there in the mentioned folders because they are only generated by the install program. If the install program is not  able to write these files because of folder permission problems then they will not be there.
for folder/file permissions see:

I am trying on Godday. and yes its Https, But still no luck.

I placed a call with Godday and they admitted that they also cant reach repo.frontaccounting.eu. I wasted good one hour with them pressing they should find out why.. but alas ..they told me this how it is.

Booted with Live USB Ubuntu 21.10 and received  "Printer does not acept the job (0)"
Downgraded php to 7.4. Things are working normal. Printing from both localhost and remote.
This php8 is a nightmare with FA.
@joe, while at it, can you please correct the spelling mistake in reporting\includes\class_printer.inc line 50 to read
"Printer does not accept the job".

@bradlanier,
I made the same setup as you mentioned above and its working for me.
My environment MINT (Ubuntu 20.2)
CUPS and CUPS-BSD
XINETD running with cups-lpd daemon
USB attached Printer (Canon MX320)
Did not create Class in CUPS just used the Queue Name of the printer (MX320-series).
FA printer Def:
Host name or IP: localhost
Port:    515
Printer Queue: MX320-series
Timeout: 5
I am able to print fine from FA installed locally. I also have another instance of FA installed on Windows 10 and it prints fine on the same printer from remote. Printer definition on the remote FA ix same as above but has the Mint IP address instead of localhost.

@bradlanier,

Did you succeed to get to work? How?

An easier way is to deactivate the item..choose Items and Inventory->Items->choose item->Item Status ->Inactive.
The item will not show in any future transactions and no one will be able to choose it.
To delete an invoice go Setup->Void a Transaction->Transaction Type Sales Invoice -> Select the Invoice with the pen pointer and Press Void Transaction.
Both are very simple.

getting same error - Cannot download repo index file.

Old one was working.

You are correct. I also have the same issue. What i found is one cant ping repo.frontaccounting.eu from Godaddy but possible from other systems.

Wooo..well deserved to the FA developers and the  FA community at large.
Go FA GO..

Just to the /modules folder.
Example if you have Import Items Module (import_items) then it should be in
/modules/import_items/

Try:
https://github.com/apmuthu/FA24extensions/tree/master/Extensions
Download from the above then install.

I have never seen a query implemented against Editable Item Description in FA.

A longer Editable Item Description field is needed in FA especially when one is running a Services Company where an item is a description of what the work is to be done.

In order to keep working, I altered this up to 250 in the browser, and the backend code accepted the longer string fine, and produced and emailed the invoice OK, too. Surely limiting HTML maxlength can't mitigate SQL injection...? The commit has no other changes.

Very interesting.

@joe  and @apmuthu any comments?

Still no solution until 2.5 is out.

@baxterdmutt,

For Fiscal years just follow the wiki:

https://frontaccounting.com/fawiki/index.php?n=Help.FiscalYears

There is nothing called Forms Setup menu I know of in FA. The only place to setup information on forms is in

Setup->Transaction Reference

Otherwise to change Forms (and which forms?) requires Programming skills...unless I misunderstood your question.

Maybe its related to php8. See the following post

https://frontaccounting.com/punbb/viewtopic.php?id=9664

If not then try to close and open the year.

Corporate tax is coming to the UAE

https://www.reuters.com/markets/rates-bonds/uae-introduce-federal-corporate-tax-business-profits-june-1-2023-2022-01-31/

Basically its 9% on business profits for companies making more than $102K of profits. I wonder if FA can be tweaked to handle this,  or this type of Tax is out of FA scope.

Any Ideas?

Submitted to mantis bug tracker.

Anything in the error log? Also what I meant you should close and reopen the current fiscal year (2022).

Yes of course..
