I have just setup getting finance quotes for Gnucash for the first time for GC
4.10 on Linux Mint 20.3. I was setting up a shell script to shutdown GnuCash,
update the finance quotes and restart GnuCash after the quotes had been written
to the datafile. The finance quote seems to work ok but when
The CSV Transaction Importer only has 3 options for currency format: Locale,
Comma and Period. Is there some way to change it to something else?
For example in the CSV file, I have "10 550,50" which would translate to
"10,500.50" (in the US). Can I make GnuCash translate this properly?
Hi,
Actually, I tried a re-install, thinking I had missed a trick in the
installation process, but exactly the same.

Your choices are:
1. Locale (set by your OS preferences)
2. Specify one from the drop down.

Except it didn't matter if I waited a minute or so in between each call.
It even failed some days on the first call. That's what had me stumped.
But yeah, if another sources works reliably, it is probably the source
and not F::Q.

was a messy installation , probably due to a hardware issue, so I did not go

Your reply strongly suggests that you were getting throttled by Alphavantage
retrieval limits. The fact that one Alphavantage quote was quick, but 10 took
much longer supports my hypothesis. The fact that yahoo_json appears to have
fixed the time lag also supports it.

No, I was on 4.9. I've managed to get back to 4.9 now with no problem getting
the GnuCash.exe to work. I tried looking at the registry and resetting .exe etc
to default settings. As soon as I try to upgrade to 4.10-1 I get the problem
that the exe file doesn't work. It looks like it's
So you originally jumped from 3.11 to 4.10?

Reverting to GnuCash 3.11 works perfectly. Upgrading from that to GnuCash 4.0
works but only after clicking through lots of error messages. Upgrading to
GnuCash 4.10-1 doesn’t work at all. Bizarre!

See my reply in your 'Hang' thread.
As soon as I got my second hang in GnuCash, I resorted to CLI, keeping
GnuCash Price DB open to check each of the symbols one-by-one.
F::Q/Alphavantage would hang on the CLI too for random symbols.
Sometimes it would instantly retrieve say USD->EUR,

Another "workaround" is described in

That "fixing of Windows" has only to be done once, not for each file.

I found a workaround (in case anyone else has the same issue):
I opened the UTF-8 encoded CSV file in Notapad++, selected "Encoding|convert to
ANSI" and saved the file.
I could then import the CSV file into GnuCash without the Account names being
"corrupted".

I guess the underlying issue is probably Piecash - or possibly the way it

Python program using Piecash.
