Hi!

I tried to play with automatic stock price retrieval, but it always failed (although gnc-fq-dump works well).

When I run "gnucash --debug --add-price-quotes /path/to/my/gnucash/file", I got the following output:

    Found Finance::Quote version 1.49.

Then "echo $?" prints "1".

gnc-fq-dump works well:

$ gnc-fq-dump yahoo_json AMZN
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
    symbol: AMZN                 <=== required
      date: 06/04/2020           <=== recommended
  currency: USD                  <=== required
      last: 2460.6               <=\      
       nav:                      <=== one of these
     price:                      <=/       
  timezone:                      <=== optional

Is there any way to get more debug information? My system is Debian 10, and "gnucash -v" outputs:


GnuCash 3.10
Build ID: 3.10+(2020-04-11)


Thanks!

Hong
