I'll note that Julie's first attachment stated that quotes were not returned for certain entries. Finance::Quote is returning that error, so it is installed. I see in Julie's attachment that her bitcoin entry is assigned to "Digital Cash". The screen shot for the Yahoo! suggests that their

That's the thing with server errors. Sometimes they are quite transient. I've done a simple reload of a page, or re-run a command and received expected results right after a 500-class error. Regards, Adrien On 6/17/22 11:31 AM, Richard Ullger via gnucash-user wrote: That's strange, I don't

The error message reports "500" as the status code. That's an Internal Server Error, so it isn't you. Unfortunately, "500" is a generic catch-all for server errors, so there isn't any further information as to what type of error. There's nothing you can do but wait. (at least for Yahoo) Try

Hi David Yes, Bitcoin certainly is quoted on Yahoo: https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/BTC-USD/ Julia's problem is with Finance::Quote itself, not Bitcoin, as she can't get quotes for IBM. Regards Geoff = On 17/06/2022 12:42 pm, David Carlson wrote: I don't trade bitcoin so I don't

Hi Julie [Etiquette - always include the list in all your emails.] OK, we need to try and find out why Finance::Quote itself is not working. Please try this command (all one line): perl -MFinance::Quote -e 'my $q = Finance::Quote->new(); print $q->fetch(q/yahoo_json/,q/IBM/);' Regards

I don't trade bitcoin so I don't know for sure, but for a long time bitcoin was not an officially recognized currency and GnuCash was not able to track it unless the user jumped through some tricky hoops. I don't know if that has changed yet. Is it quoted on Yahoo? On Thu, Jun 16, 2022, 8:22 PM

Thank you very much for your quick response, Geoff. Good news is I successfully installed the Finance::Quote version 1.51 but still can't get online quotes. I tried both Yahoo as JSON source and Alpha Vantage, and got API key, but the notification still says the same "Unable to retrieve

Hi Julie You say that you have "successfully installed" Finance::Quote. We need to verify that is is actually working, independently of GnuCash. The easiest way to do this is to use the gnc-fq-dump utility as I explained in my email yesterday. You need to: (A) Locate the folder containing

Hi Julie >Does it mean something went wrong with Finance Quote module install, since it doesn't show its version? Possibly. You can use the GnuCash gnc-fq-dump utility (it is a Perl script) to try and narrow down the problem. You didn't mention your operating system, but your screenshot
