All of the Yahoo! price sources except yahoo_json were discontinued some time
ago when Verizon bought Yahoo!. Using one of them will cause the dreaded
"unknown error", so go through all of the securities for which you have quote
retrieval enabled and make sure that none of them are using any yahoo source
other than yahoo_json.
I just tried
gnc-fq-dump yahoo_json HDFCBANK.NS
and got
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
symbol: HDFCBANK.NS <=== required
date: 04/26/2019 <=== recommended
currency: INR <=== required
last: 2280.95 <=\
nav: <=== one of these
price: <=/
timezone: <=== optional
so that should work.
