Hi Sudesh
It looks like you are on the right tram now.

Not in my experience, but it depends on your hardware and internet
connection.

Correct. Unfortunately I don't have any experience with Indian
exchanges, but Google should be able to help you out.

This is a good sign - it indicates that you have successfully installed
the Perl Finance Quote module.
You should be skiing downhill from here on.
Good luck.

Hello Geoff,
Many thanks for the fast reply.
Actually the Perl scripts ran longer than 30 minutes.... much closer to
3 hours and after all that It threw up an error about "Alpha Vantage
API Key". I had to manually visit the alphavantage website and request a
key and update Gnucash app under edit/preferences.
Is this normal?
Once I updated the key It seems work okay now.
Like I said before, I am still a newbie at this,
My next step is how to setup a stock symbol in the price database/Get
quotes button?
Currently pressing the button only gives me currency conversion between
USD and INR.
Thanks,
- Sudesh

Hi Sudesh
Some of the required Perl modules take a considerable time to install
and the process may appear to "freeze" when in fact it is only "resting".
Can you try again - you need to run the "gnc-fq-update" script located
in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin\" directory - and send a
screenshot if it is still hanging after 30 minutes.
Thanks
Geoff
