Sir / Madam,
I am trying to enable Online Stock Price Updating in GnuCash - (in Windows
10).
* I have installed Strawberry Perl
* Then I ran the "Install Online Price Retrieval for GnuCash" - from
the Start Menu
* This goes thru a long process in the CMD Prompt (Shell) window
* It seems to make it to the end - see picture below:
* [cid:6644e8d2-a3a2-4004-9571-53b898113207]
* Then I open a new CMD Prompt and type: "perldoc
Finance::Quote"
* It says that there is no documentation for this
* I then tried to go to the GnuCash Wiki page - but I was not able to
get anyhere.
I also could not figure out how to do the Root Shell to run "gnc-fq-update"
Can you please let me know what to do?
Thanks,
Jai Rao

Hi Jai Rao,
I don't think you need to run qnc-fq-update with Administrative privileges
(the Windows equivalent of Linux root), but to do so:
Click in the Cortana Ask me anything field to the right of the Start button,
begin typing "cmd", a search menu should appear. The menu should display
"Command Prompt". Right click on "Command Prompt", and select "Run as
administrator".
I suggest you use the instructions in
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Online_Quotes#Helper_Scripts to run
gnc-fq-check to see if there is a problem with your Finance::Quote
installation, and it that doesn't find an error, use gnc-fq-dump to test,
like say:
perl gnc-fq-dump alphavantage IBM
(There was a typo in
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Online_Quotes#Source_Alphavantage.2C_US that
made it difficult to see the Windows alphavantage instructions on that page
which I have now fixed.)
If you find a problem, we should be able to help you fix it.
Regards, Chris Good
