Hi,

I'm starting to use GNUCASH to track my personal finances on my Ubuntu 10.4
laptop.

 I'm now working on tracking investments and savings.
I have created account to track mutual funds investments.
I would like to quote a fund proposed by my bank with following ISIN
FR0007024393. Yahoo Finance Europe propose the quote with the
code FR0007024393EUR

In "Security Editor", I have created a Security with symbol "FR0007024393",
type "FUND", ISIN "FR0007024393EUR", ticked "Get one line quotes", Type of
quote source "Single", "Yahoo Europe", "use local time zone".

In "Price Editor", I click "Get Quotes".
I get following alert message :
*There was an unknown error while retrieving the price quotes.*

I have checked with command line utility gnc-fq-dump :

gnc-fq-dump yahoo_europe FR0007024393EUR
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
    symbol: FR0007024393EUR      <=== required
      date: 06/17/2010           <=== required
  currency: EUR                  <=== requiredIn "Security Editor", I have
created a Security with symbol FR0007024393, type FUND, ISIN
FR0007024393EUR, ticked "Get one line quotes", Type of quote source
"Single", Yahoo Europe, use local time zone.

      last: 85.17                <=\
       nav:                      <=== one of these
     price: 85.17                <=/
  timezone:                      <=== optional

So I know it's possible to get price for this secuty with the system.

I have launched gnucash in terminal an
gnucash --debug --add-price-quotes gnucashfille.gnucash
gnc.bin-Message: main: binreloc relocation support was disabled at configure
time.

Found Finance::Quote version 1.17

gwenhywfar-INFO: plugin.c:  574: Plugin type "configmgr" unregistered
gwenhywfar-INFO: plugin.c:  574: Plugin type "dbio" unregistered



How I can get online quotes working?

Thanks in advance for your help.
