I have had GC installed on my Mac for a very long time, and until Yahoo
pulled the plug everything worked great! So, I would have to believe
that Perl is already in the path. The only changes I have made were to
add the Alphavantage key to the end of the environment file and updating
GC to 2.6.18 after upgrading MacOS to 10.13.
But I will check since I don't recall ever running F:Q in the terminal
before. How would I check the path?
Thanks,

Hi Les,
Have you tried running it with the -v (verbose) option to get a
bit more
information back ?
Running F:Q directly in Terminal works OK on MacOS 10.13 here but only
after I first issue a "export ALPHAVANTAGE_AKI_KEY=################"
command so you might find that's what is needed when running it
directly.
Remember the environment file you added the key to is used by
GnuCash and
presumably passes the api key into F::Q so if you run F:Q directly
you have
to let it know what your api key is ?
Cheers Dave H.
