Re: [GNC] Fetching quotes with flatpak

[Jon Schewe]

When specifying the namespace it works. Good to know there is a bug
report about this. I've subscribed to it so that I know when it's been
fixed.

Re: [GNC] Fetching quotes with flatpak

[Vincent Dawans]

FYI there is an open bug report about this.
https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798815

And yes I confirm it works for me also with a namespace but not without. It
seems that with no namespace, the code is parsing the filename in the wrong
variable, hence the missing filename message.

Re: [GNC] Fetching quotes with flatpak

[David H]

Murugan/Jon,

I'm having the same issue which isn't really an issue for me as I usually
just run Get Quotes from within GnuCash itself.  I was able to get updated
quotes however by including the namespace parameter as follows:-

flatpak run --command=gnucash-cli org.gnucash.GnuCash --quotes get
--namespace=NYSE /home/<>/Documents/Test.gnucash
Found Finance::Quote version 1.5301.

Hope this helps, Cheers David H.

Re: [GNC] Flatpak ldconfig error

[David H]

Simple fix/workaround documented in the docs at
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Flatpak, excerpt below.

Cheers David H.


   - Current versions of GnuCash flatpak will no longer attempt to
   recompile all scm sources though it will continue to emit warnings about
   obsolete .go files:

   ldconfig: /app/lib/libguile-2.2.so.1.3.0-gdb.scm is not an ELF file
- it has the wrong magic bytes at the start.
   ;;; note: source file /app/share/guile//2.2/ice-9/eval.scm;;;
newer than compiled /app/lib/guile/2.2/ccache/ice-9/eval.go:


Workaround

:

# --system installcd /var/lib/flatpak/app/org.gnucash.GnuCash# OR
--user installcd $HOME/.local/share/flatpak/app/org.gnucash.GnuCash

sudo find . -name '*.go' -exec touch '{}' ';'

[GNC] Norton Utilities prevent FQ installation

[Ruaraidh Sackville Hamilton]

Norton Utilities came with my new Windows 11 computer. GnuCash 4.13 is
working great and I've migrated my data from the old computer, but there's
one problem: the script supplied to install finance::quote has failed with
error message "failed to download perl install file". At the same time,
Norton Utilities gives a message that it blocked unauthorized access to
process data, so it looks like Norton is the culprit. Norton says it's just
an info message and no action is required (!)

I've tried:

   - disabling Norton's firewall
   - disabling Norton's antivirus checks for perl.msi
   - running the installation script as administrator.

None of these has helped.

Has anyone any suggestions for what to try next?

[GNC] Flatpak ldconfig error

[Jon Schewe]

When I run flatpak to get quotes I get a warning about a scheme file
not being an ELF file. Is this a bug in the packaging or expected based
on how flatpak works?

>flatpak run --command=gnucash-cli org.gnucash.GnuCash --quotes get
~/Documents/banking/gnucash/accounts.gnucash
ldconfig: /app/lib/libguile-2.2.so.1.3.0-gdb.scm is not an ELF file -
it has the wrong magic bytes at the start.

So the problem is that the quotes were as usual undated and although it was 
still 31 March at home it was 1 April where you are now and since the quotes 
didn't have a date on them GnuCash was marking them as 1 April, and that breaks 
reports using the nearest before price source.

The easiest way to handle that is to set the TZ variable to whatever time zone 
the market you're interested is in, but there's no good solution even possible 
if you hold securities traded in multiple time zones, especially if some are in 
Asia and others in America.

Re: [GNC] Security timezone

[David T. via gnucash-user]

When I reconcile my brokerage account statements with my GnuCash books, I 
reconcile actual transactions and ensure that commodity balances are correct. 
As long as those are accurate, the valuation at any given time is essentially 
arbitrary; it only becomes important at the time of sale. 

A valuation at any given point only serves to make you feel something--good for 
how high it is, bad if it is lower than your hope.

Re: [GNC] Security timezone

[Fred Tydeman]

I am talking about price quotes.  I am trying to get month end and quarter
end valuations.
So that I can compare what GnuCash has versus statements from broker (to
see if I have
any missing or wrong transactions).

In a couple of years, I plan on living full time on a ship as it travels
around the world.

Re: [GNC] Security timezone

[David T. via gnucash-user]

I hesitate to jump in, since John is so much more knowledgeable and informed, 
but his reply (and my understanding of the back side functioning in this area) 
would suggest that the quote source doesn't usually include any time zone 
information, and the time zone that GnuCash inserts into its data set is chosen 
specifically to ensure that quote dates won't change when viewed in different 
times zones. So, it's not clear to me why you would encounter date changes. 

That being said, I have a few questions, the first being, how long is your 
trip? If it's a short term thing, perhaps you can accept the discrepancy until 
you return to your home time zone, at which time the shift would presumably 
revert to your expectation.  

The second is, how important is it to know that a given price relates to 
Monday, as opposed to Tuesday? My experience is that the specific dates of such 
valuations is secondary to the general valuation at some point in time. Any 
concern with a specific date and time is either related to an actual event 
(purchase/sale), or is due to my own obsessive nature. The former gets handled 
in the actual transaction, while the latter takes therapy.  ;)

The third is, are you actually discussing price quotes, or perhaps 
transactions? Your initial query refers to securities, while John interpreted 
that to mean price quotes. Transactions can have more specific times associated 
with them (although I can't imagine an actual security having any sort of time 
attached to it). Perhaps this is a source of confusion in this exchange?

That’s not the best way to do it, although it will work.  It puts less load
on the server to have it in the server configuration file which is read
once when the server starts. Reading the .htaccess every time a site is
accessed adds unnecessary load. You will find that documented in the Apache
docs somewhere.
