Hello everyone,
I'm looking for a few pointers on how to troubleshoot an issue I'm having
with v5 downloading quotes. I had no issues with v4.13. When I select
"Tools|Price Database|GetQuotes" a shell opens and closes quickly and
nothing is updated.
I don't seem to have any issues with gnucash-cli. Here are the results:
---
C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>gnucash-cli.exe --verbose -Q dump
yahoo_json acn
acn:
isodate => 2023-03-27
low => 270.64
type => EQUITY
name => acn (Accenture plc)
pe => 25.180145
exchange => Sourced from Yahoo Finance (as JSON)
eps => 10.88
currency => USD
method => yahoo_json
success => 1
volume => 2805531
close => 272

year_range => 242.8 - 345.3
last => 273.96
open => 270.73
div_yield => 1.5919117
symbol => acn
high => 274.36

Running gnucash with the "--log gnc.scm=debug" shows the following error:
* 15:11:29 ERROR <gnc.gui> [gnc_prices_dialog_get_quotes_clicked()] Price
retrieval failed: Failed to parse result returned by Finance::Quote.
Error message:
<unspecified file>(1): expected value
To me, it's odd that gnucash-cli.exe seems to work where the gnucash app
itself does not.
I have Finance::Quote: 1.54 installed and it shows this in Help | About
Lastly, if I check the security editor, it seems like every quote provider
is greyed out. This woudl suggest to me that gnucash doesn't think there
is a valid Finance::Quote configured.
I'd appreciate any pointers on how to dig deeper and determine what broke
for me between 4.13 and 5.0. Is anyone else having issues?
I'm enjoying v5 quite a bit - congrats on the release.
Michael
