Every since Yahoo shut down their service, I have not been able to get
any stock quotes. I had been running a very old version 2.6.15, I
think, so I did not try to resolve the issue but now I have updated to
3.4 and I still have the same problem.
I have checked that I have the necessary version of Perl and
gnc-fq-dump installed and I changed all my securities to retrieve
quotes using yahoo_jason. From the command line I ban get a quote:
$ gnc-fq-dump yahoo_json googl
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
symbol: googl <=== required
date: 05/17/2019 <=== recommended
currency: USD <=== required
last: 1168.78 <=\
nav: <=== one of these
price: <=/
timezone: <=== optional
but when I try from inside GNC I get the "Unknown Error" popup. Are
there any debug logs I can look at to see what is going on? Perhaps I
have too many securities? Is there a way to request just one from
inside GNC?
Thanks,
Steve
