Re: [GNC] Stock quotes hung
Not sure exactly what happened in your case. But usually, if you can put the focus on the "frozen" process, then Alt-F4 will kill it. There are other ways as well in Linux, for example with htop.

Re: [GNC] Stock quotes hung
I am back home and stock quotes is working fine. So, my problem must have been a very slow internet connection. It would be nice if there were some way to cancel a stock quote fetch in progress.

Re: [GNC] Stock quotes hung
I was wrong. The gnucash-cli command, after a couple of minutes, did finish. And looking at the price history, it did get the AT price for yesterday. So, it looks like things are very slow for some reason. Perhaps the internet at this airbnb is causing problems.

Re: [GNC] Stock quotes hung
I have removed Get Quotes for all of my stocks and have just GBP currency getting quotes. Doing the gnucash-cli command works. If I add in just one stock (T == AT), gnucash-cli hangs. I tried adding in --debug to that gnucash-cli, but nothing stood out as a problem.

Re: [GNC] Stock quotes hung
Unfortunately no. The Securities window can show which ones are set (click the arrow at the right end of the header row and check Get Quotes) but the control isn't sensitive so you have to double-click on each line item and change it in the Security Editor dialog box.

[GNC] Stock quotes hung
I am running GnuCash 4.14 on Fedora Linux 37 Last weekend, I could get stock quotes. Yesterday and today, all I get is a spinning circle. I end up rebooting Linux to get out of a hung session. All of my stocks are getting prices from yahoo as json. In looking at the online documentation in 11.3 about gnucash-cli, I have tried gnucash-cli --quotes info and gnucash-cli --quotes dump Both get: Unknown quotes command 'info' and 'dump'. Doing gnucash-cli --quotes get /lindata/GnuCash/tybor/tybor.gnucash gets: Found Finance::Quote version 1.58 and a hung session.

[GNC] Stock quotes for BT.A
Does anyone know how to get price quotes for LSE:BT.A from Alphavantage? Or from any other source? Following other advice on this forum, I've successfully retrieved price quotes from Alphavantage for other LSE stocks by concatenating the LSE ticker code with ".L" and setting that as the value of Symbol in the Security Editor. For example, setting Symbol = "BP.L" successfully retrieves the price quote for BP. The ticker code for BT Group is BT.A, so I tried "BT.A.L", but that failed. I guess that breaks their syntax rules, so, guessing wildly, I've also tried "BT_A.L" and "BTA.L" and "BT.L", but all of these fail too.

[GNC] Stock quotes
Ever since Yahoo shut down their service, I have not been able to get any stock quotes. I had been running a very old version, 2.6.15, I think, so I didn't try to resolve the issue but now I have updated to 3.4 and I still have the same problem. I have checked that I have the necessary version of Perl and gnc-fq-dump installed and I changed all my securities to retrieve quotes using yahoo_jason.

A solution to AlphaVantage limits is in Ameet Sengar's message;
available here.
https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2018-September/079698.html
It has been my experience that the AlphaVantage.pm file is read only.
Change file properties to read write to modify; then back to read
only. (Notepad++ worked well for me on a Win10 system.)
Because Quote.pm is hard coded to use Alphavantage for exchange rates it
is also useful to put a delay in there if you have more than a few
currencies.

I note that yahoo are having problems due to their historical data for UK is in pounds - not that I am going there. Cheers Dave A solution to AlphaVantage limits is in Ameet Sengar's message; available here. https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2018-September/079698.html It has been my experience that the AlphaVantage.pm file is read only. Change file properties to read write to modify; then back to read only. (Notepad++ worked well for me on a Win10 system.) nvsoar ___ 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.
