Problem getting quotes

I am a new user of gnucash, running the latest version on windows 8.1. I 
ran install-fq-mods.cmd and it installed strawberry perl, but there is 
an error message:

Undefined subroutine &main::Date_Init called at gnc-fq-helper line 350.

I thought it might be due to a missing Date::Manip, but that seems to be 
installed:

cpan> install Date::Manip
Date::Manip is up to date (6.50).

Please find below the output of install-fq-mods.cmd and perl gnc-fq-dump 
yahoo AAPL which seems to work fine. When I try to update the rate of 
EUR from within gnucash it fails without any specific error message.

What can I check to get FQ running?

C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuCash\bin>install-fq-mods.cmd
* Check Perl
* Check Perl version
* Determine which Perl flavour we have found
   - Other, probably Strawberry perl ?
* Install required perl modules
