I was receiving the dreaded "There was an unknown error while retrieving the price quotes.” error after I recently upgraded to 2.6.7, and upgraded to OSX 10.10.4 yesterday. F::Q worked as recently as 7/23/2015.
I reran FinanceQuote Update.app (after re-copying it to the Applications folder), checked F::Q in Terminal with "/Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnc-fq-dump yahoo AAPL” and received:
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
symbol: AAPL <=== required
date: 07/27/2015 <=== required
currency: USD <=== required
last: 122.77 <=\
nav: <=== one of these
price: 122.77 <=/
timezone: <=== optional
This seemingly indicated a functional F::Q. However, the problem remained. On a lark, I decided to run gnu-fq-helper. I received:
Can't locate Date/Manip.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Date::Manip module) (@INC contains: /sw/lib/perl5/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5 /sw/lib/perl5/darwin /Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Library/Perl/5.18 /Network/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Network/Library/Perl/5.18 /Library/Perl/Updates/5.18.2/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Library/Perl/Updates/5.18.2 /System/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/5.18 /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.18 .) at ./gnc-fq-helper line 33.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./gnc-fq-helper line 33.
Installing Date::Manip from CPAN fixed the problem. I hope that the packaging can be fixed to reflect this.
