It is dangerous to enter the internet as root!

When I run with verbose flag, I get
gnc-fq-dump -v indiamutual 135765
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:

    symbol: 135765 (deduced)     <=== required

      date: ** missing **        <=== recommended

  currency: ** missing **        <=== required

      last:                      <=\

       nav:                      <=== one of these

     price:                      <=/

  timezone:                      <=== optional



** This stock quote cannot be used by GnuCash!





All fields returned by Finance::Quote for stock 135765



stock           field  value

-----           -----  -----

135765       errormsg: HTTP failure

135765           last: **missing**

135765            nav: **missing**

135765          price: **missing**

135765        success: 0


'errormsg: HTTP failure' indicates the module did not get, what it expected.

Try to open
http://portal.amfiindia.com/NAVReport.aspx?type=0
in your browser and see. That is the URL, which the module calls.
So they changed something at amfiindia. You should watch it, to see, if
the issue is temporary or permanent.

If it is permanent, you or another user will have to find the new URL to
fix the module-
