I have been running gnucash on Linux Mint for years. The guncash I am running is version 3.7 that I built from source. I recently upgraded to Mint 19.3. On the new system I go into the price editor and click on "Get Quotes", I get "Unable to retrieve quotes for these items:" and then all the stocks I have configured to get quotes on are listed (eg, VBTLX).
I am currently have two partition running Mint 19.3. I one, I just upgraded from 19.1 to 19.3. In the other I did a fresh install to 19.3. Gnucash is in a data partiton used by both versions of linux. Get quotes runs fine in the upgraded version but not in the fresh install version. I even tried recompiling gnucash on the new install system but that had no affect. I have not found any logs that give any more information on why the price lookup failed. I wonder if in the fresh install I am missing a library (the source code READMEs are as useful as they could be). Here is a list of some apropos installed packages on both systems: aqbanking-tools/bionic libaqbanking-data/bionic libaqbanking-dev/bionic libaqbanking35/bionic libaqbanking35-plugins/bionic cmake/bionic-updates cmake-data/bionic-updates g++/bionic-updates g++-7/bionic-updates gir1.2-glib-2.0/bionic gir1.2-spiceclientglib-2.0/bionic libqt5glib-2.0-0/bionic libspice-client-glib-2.0-8/bionic libspice-client-glib-2.0-dev/bionic libglib2.0-0/bionic-updates libglib2.0-bin/bionic-updates libglib2.0-cil/bionic libglib2.0-cil-dev/bionic libglib2.0-data/bionic-updates libglib2.0-dev/bionic-updates libglib2.0-dev-bin/bionic-updates libglib2.0-doc/bionic-updates libglib2.0-tests/bionic-updates libglib2.0-dev/bionic-updates libglib2.0-dev-bin/bionic-updates libgtk-3-dev/bionic-updates guile-2.2/bionic-updates guile-2.2-dev/bionic-updates guile-2.2-libs/bionic-updates guile-2.2-dev/bionic-updates libxml2/bionic-updates libxml2-dev/bionic-updates libxml2-utils/bionic-updates libxml2-dev/bionic-updates libxml2-utils/bionic-updates gettext/bionic-updates gettext-base/bionic-updates liblocale-gettext-perl/bionic libxslt1.1/bionic-updates libxslt1-dev/bionic-updates xsltproc/bionic-updates libboost-all-dev/bionic swig/bionic swig3.0/bionic libgtest-dev/bionic google-mock/bionic libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37/bionic-updates libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37-gtk2/bionic-updates libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev/bionic-updates libwebkit2gtk-4.0-doc/bionic-updates aqbanking-tools/bionic libaqbanking-dev/bionic gwenhywfar-tools/bionic libofx-dev/bionic libsecret-1-0/bionic libsecret-1-dev/bionic python3-pytest/bionic perl-doc/bionic-updates libfinance-quote-perl/bionic I have tried executing gnc-fq-update and gnc-fq-dump on both system but that has not provided any insight because it fails on BOTH systems. But I still am able to get quotes on the upgraded 19.3 system. If anyone has any insights, please share. -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
