Hi Geoff,
I seem to have partly solved my problem. Following up on a comment from
Bill and your interest in the version of Perl I was running, I chased up
a recent version of Strawberry Perl.
I got v5.32.0 64bit and installed that. It still thought I had the older
32bit installed so I tried uninstalling that. This broke the 64bit
install, so I repaired it and then ran the "Install Online Price
Retrieval for GnuCash" option on the Windows GnuCash menu. This got the
standard installation back. I then followed your original instructions
about replacing ASX.pm and ran your check as follows:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin"
PS C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin> perl gnc-fq-dump ASX BHP
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
symbol: BHP <=== required
date: 10/15/2020 <=== recommended
currency: AUD <=== required
last: 36.77 <=\
nav: <=== one of these
price: 36.77 <=/
timezone: <=== optional
PS C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>
I then tried running "Get Quotes" from inside GnuCash and it seems to
have partly worked. Some of my ASX stocks are still not retrieving but
others are. I will investigate using gnc-fq-dump and report back.
Thanks for your help,
John Bonnett
