hi Alan

best way is what Geoff advised. Try re installing the finance quote.  make sure 
you see the folder and sub folder called quotes under finance

please check if the alphavantage key is updated.

Subject: Re: [GNC] Installing or updating Finance::Quote

Hi Geoff,

Thank you for your input.
Following advice from Murugan, I created a Finance folder at the correct 
location and put a copy of the latest version of quote.pm into it.

When I now run perl "C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin\gnc-fq-update", this is 
what I see in cmd:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>perl "C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin\gnc-fq-update"
Database was generated on Sat, 10 Dec 2022 08:13:54 GMT
Test2 is up to date (1.302191).
Date::Manip is up to date (6.90).
Finance::Quote is up to date (1.5301).

C:\WINDOWS\system32>



This looked promising, so I then ran "Install Online Price Retrieval for 
Gnucash" from the Start menu again, and this was the result:

* Check Perl
* Check Perl version
* Install required perl modules
Database was generated on Sat, 10 Dec 2022 08:13:54 GMT
Test2 is up to date (1.302191).
Date::Manip is up to date (6.90).
Finance::Quote is up to date (1.5301).

* Check environment variable ALPHAVANTAGE_API_KEY

  ***
  *** You need an API key (from https://www.alphavantage.co)
  ***   to run the Perl module Finance::Quote.
  ***
  *** Make it available to GnuCash by
  ***    - setting the environment variable ALPHAVANTAGE_API_KEY or
  ***    - starting GnuCash and adding the Alpha Vantage api key in
  ***        Edit->Preferences->Online Quotes
  ***

* Run gnc-fq-check

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

An error occurred, see above.




It appears that these two are returning conflicting reports, so I'm now 
wondering whether I should uninstall Strawberry perl again and reinstall it, 
but I'm also wondering why it didn't fully install in the first place.

Regards,
Alan

Hi Alan

It looks like the install has failed for some reason as the modules
should be under: C:\Strawberry\perl\site\lib\Finance\

The entries under "perl\vendor" are not related to Finance::Quote and
are irrelevant.

I suggest that you try to install it again.  The installation can be a
bit fiddly as there are a number of dependencies, and some modules take
a while.

You can do this with the GnuCash installer.  Open a command prompt as
administrator and type:-
perl C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin\gnc-fq-update

Or directly by downloading from here:-
https://metacpan.org/pod/Finance::Quote


Good luck!

Regards

Geoff
