Running Win 10 - Install online price retrieval (GnuCash version 2.6.21) reports DateManip could not be found; reports the following at the end.

Can't locate Date/Manip.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Date::Manip module) (@INC contains: C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib C:/strawberry/perl/vendor/lib C:/strawberry/perl/lib .) at gnc-fq-helper line 29.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at gnc-fq-helper line 29.
An error occurred, see above.
Press any key to continue . . .

Have know idea for the meaning of @INC, or where to put the Date::Manip module.

Same fault for GnuCash version 2.6.17

Run the Online Price Retrieval Setup program. Date::Manip is a required perl module.

That's what did not work.  Downloaded v2.6.21; went GnuCash menu and selected "Install Online Price Retrieval for GnuCash."  This action resulted in the message above at the end of the process. Observing the process running on the terminal showed a message similar to "could not find DateManip" part way through.

I apologize for not being clear in the initial report.

Hmm. Date::Manip is in the CPAN repository, https://cpan.metacpan.org/authors/id/S/SB/SBECK/Date-Manip-6.73.tar.gz. The URL has changed, though, from cpan.org <http://cpan.org> to metacpan.org <http://metacpan.org>. That’s just the last couple of months, I think.

Try opening a Strawberry Perl window from the Start menu and run the command
  cpan -i Date::Manip

There are likely multiple error messages and having the output in a window that doesn’t disappear at the end will help you see them all.
