Thanks. Not sure how to install a module from CPAN as suggested by Murugan so will attempt to modify the file.

Best regards

Adrian

On Windows it should be:

 C:\Strawberry\perl\site\lib\Finance\Quote

On Unix/Linux it could be in many different places depending on how it was
installed. Try these:

/usr/share/perl5/Finance/Quote
/usr/local/share/perl/5.26.1/Finance/Quote

If not then use find utility to locate it on Unix/Linux or Mac OS'...

# find / -name YahooJSON.pm
/usr/share/perl5/Finance/Quote/YahooJSON.pm
/usr/local/share/perl/5.26.1/Finance/Quote/YahooJSON.pm

For flatpak, I am not sure how.

I am having the same problem as reported on a recent thread. I was not sure
how to respond on the thread as the reply arrow was grayed out. I am not
sure how to make the quick fix mentioned by Kalpesh Patel as I cannot find
the file YahooJSOM.pm. Can anyone help?

Thanks

Adrian
