[GNC] No Stock Quotes - OS Monterey, Gnucash 4.8(Build ID: 4.8a+(2021-09-28))

Thu Feb 10 14:46:27 EST 2022

David,
Thanks for the info.  I ran the commands and the terminal dump is attached.  Basically, said it failed during command: ABH/Mozilla-CA-20211001.tar.gz.  One thing I did note is that at the very end is the exact same error statement as I get when I run gnc-fq-update.  So I seem to have some sort of path error.

The entities mentioned in this thread are all Perl modules, so they are installed via CPAN.

I usually launch CPAN with ’sudo cpan’ so I can get help when I botch a command.

Once in cpan, ‘install Mozilla::CA’ should work.

Hi David,

 Per your suggestion, I tried  to install the certificate collection by typing “sudo install Mozilla::CA” and got the following:

dwa1 at dwa1 ~ % sudo install Mozilla::CA
Password:
usage: install [-bCcpSsv] [-B suffix] [-f flags] [-g group] [-m mode]
               [-o owner] file1 file2
       install [-bCcpSsv] [-B suffix] [-f flags] [-g group] [-m mode]
               [-o owner] file1 ... fileN directory
       install -d [-v] [-g group] [-m mode] [-o owner] directory ...
dwa1 at dwa1 ~ %

Obviously I need more or different information to get and install Mozilla::CA.  I’m really out of my element here so if you can provide the actual command I need to use I would appreciate it.

Matthias Fasching noted last summer that he needed to install Mozilla::CA to get quotes working for him in Big Sur.

That missing certificate collection was what had been keeping my office mac from being able retrieve quotes for at least a couple Gnucash versions.
That change was after dealing with the B::Keywords test failures and needing to upgrade the Test2 module.

Your dump looks pretty much llke a rerun of the same problem except that now you also have an SSL certificate problem.

/usr/bin is right where you'd expect it, but you can't see it with Finder, only from the terminal. For example you can type
  ls -l /usr/bin/make
and if it's there get back something like
  -rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  167088 Dec  7 15:39 /usr/bin/make*

Did you install Xcode in /Applications without messing with the name? If not you might try
 sudo xcode-select -s /Path/to Xcode.app
making the obvious substitution.
Or, since something seems confused, maybe run that even if you *did* install it in /Applications.

Since make is in the Xcode bundle you might be able to work around the problem for Finance::Quote with
 export PATH="$PATH:/Path/to/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin"
and then running gnc-fq-update again.

John, thanks for the response.  I believe I have the full XCode (32GB worth) but don’t know for sure since I don’t use it.  I only have it because of GC.  I hadn’t opened it but did after your response and told it to install the “additional components”.  After that, I ran the “gnc-fq-update” command again and got the “You need to install the following Perl modules: Finance::Quote” result when I ran a check, like before.  Terminal info is attached.  (Note: I changed the GC app name from Gnucash 4.8.app to just Gnucash.app so you will see that change in the sudo command line).

You stated that on your mac, “xcrun” and “make”are in the /usr/bin.  Not sure where that is but I right clicked the xCode app and then clicked show contents.  With this following path: xCode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin   I did find “make” but did not find “xcrun”.  Is that the correct location where they should be?  There are a lot of other xc—— commands but no “xcrun”

You stated I could install command-line tools by running  “xcode-select —install”.  Even though I think I have the full xCode with 32.12 GB, I went ahead and ran the command.  Since I am on slow DSL (2.87Mbps) it showed 215 hours remaining to download so I stopped it.

Any other thoughts or ways to get “xcrun”?

Upgraded to Monterey (V12.2) and got black screen for GC.  Read mailing list and saw  where I needed to get GC 4.8 which I did.  Installed 4.8 and GC came up and displayed correctly but am now unable to get stock quotes.  The Price Database Get Quotes button is greyed out.

Went to Applications, GC 4.8, Contents, Resources, bin and clicked on gnc-fq-check which said:

“Last login: Wed Feb 9 13:18:07 on ttys000
/Applications/Gnucash\ 4.8.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnc-fq-check ; exit; dwa1 at dwa1 ~ % /Applications/Gnucash\ 4.8.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnc-fq-check
; exit;
You need to install the following Perl modules: Finance::Quote
Use your system's package manager to install them, or run 'gnc-fq-update' as root.
missing-lib
Saving session...
...copying shared history...
...saving history...truncating history files... ...completed.
[Process completed] “

I had old version of XCode which didn’t work with Monterey so updated to version 13.2.1 and then ran “sudo /Applications/Gnucash\ 4.8.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnc-fq- update”.  Terminal info from that run is attached, but basically it didn’t work since when I ran the gnc-fq-check again, I got the same message as above.

I’m well out of my depth with all this and not sure where to go from here.  The Terminal information does not really make sense to me but there were several statements like “missing xcrun at: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/xcrun “  and “the following files are missing in your kit: .travis.yml “ as well as others

It would seem that if I had all the FQ commands in /Applications/Gnucash\4.8.app/Contents/Resources/bin/ xxx then I have FQ installed but the check says no.  Don’t know where to go from here.  Any help would be appreciated.

Most of the modules failed to install and it looks like it was because there was no `make` either on the path or in the command-line tools directory. You could install command-line tools by running
xcode-select --install
but that should be superfluous if you've installed the full Xcode. Having installed it have you run it so that it can install it's "additional components"? On my mac xcrun and make are in /usr/bin.
