Re: Price Retrieval Failure, Part 2

John, A little patience; I am honestly grasping at straws. Given that I consistently have troubles that others can't replicate or don't experience, I am looking for some way to get back to what others have. That means trying to figure out what has been put in, and taking it back out again, to

Sorry to be replying to my own message, but it also occurs to me that, in addition to Gnucash, Finance::Quote gets installed. Given that my troubles in this instance are intimately linked to F::Q, what steps might I take to ensure that IT gets removed as well?I David On February 10, 2018, at 1

Re: Price Retrieval Failure, Part 2

John, Thank you for clarifying. I'll note that Gnucash does put stuff into ~/Library/Application Support/Gnucash as well, so there is at least one thing that gets installed. I asked this question because I am still observing several "idiosyncrasies" on my system that no one else seems to be ex

Re: Price Retrieval Failure, Part 2

GnuCash on the Mac doesn’t install anything. You drag the bundle to wherever you like, and you can have as many as you like. If you want to try a “fresh installation” (shouldn’t make any difference, nothing in the bundle should change with use) just open up the dmg and drag Gnucash.app somewhere

Re: Price Retrieval Failure, Part 2

In reply to my own message, in the interest of trying to run a fresh installation of GnuCash, I logged in to a different (new) Mac user account and replicated the test there. In other words, I opened GnuCash and created a simple file with AAPL and tried to retrieve prices. I receive the same err

Re: Price Retrieval Failure, Part 2

Unfortunately, adding these lines to my config.user did not result in any further information. I am stumped, and disappointed. It seems that an upgrade of GnuCash not only tanks one’s customized environment file in the application bundle (understandable), but also any additional files that a

Re: Price Retrieval Failure, Part 2

Oh, and I mentioned this in the earlier thread, but it bears repeating: the Security Editor window has the option to display price source. As with the Chart of Accounts window, there is a selector arrow on the upper right corner which drops down a list of user-selectable co,lumns for display.

Re: Price Retrieval Failure, Part 2

David, You can put the attached config.user file in your DOT_GNUCASH_DIR ($HOME/ Library/Application Support/Gnucash) If you then start gnucash from the command line, it should print out the value of your API key there, together with the version of Finance::Quote that got installed. Unless the

Re: Price Retrieval Failure, Part 2

David, Sorry for the typos, I should have tested first. Then I would have realized that of course price-quotes.scm eats gnc-fq-helper’s stdout--that’s after all how it gets the quotes. Unfortunately it seems also to send stderr to /dev/null so that approach won’t work without changing price-quo

Re: Price Retrieval Failure, Part 2

David, Thanks, but that's not it. I have my security editor window set up so that it shows the quote source, so I can see at a glance that every one of the 100-plus securities is set to Alphavantage. I think that tomorrow, when I have a little time, I'll create a small test file with one secur

Re: Price Retrieval Failure, Part 2

John, Thanks for the suggestion. I inserted the line as you indicated (at line 324 in my copy of gnc-fq-helper), but didn’t get any output on the command line after “Found Finance::Quote version 1.47” I’m not much for perl, but I noticed your snippet had one ‘(‘, one ‘{‘, and two ‘}’. I tried
