I have followed the instructions here, using the exact example, to have automatic stock price updates in GnuCash. When I click price editor -> Get Quotes it returns in a warning Unable to retrieve quotes for these items: NS:HDIL.NS (also there is another one I tried too).

I installed gnc-fq-update following the instructions on the GnuCash mailing list here. And when I type into the terminal cpan -D Finance::Quote as instructed to do so in the GnuCash wiki for CPAN the terminal returns

  • I realise this is not directly related to Ubuntu, although I am using Ubuntu. I would be glad if someone could suggest a more appropriate stackexchange forum to use. – Sav-econ May 15 '14 at 11:35
  • If you get nothing here, you could ask on the GnuCash mailing list? – Sparhawk May 15 '14 at 11:52
  • Thank you I followed this advice and resolved the problem through the GNUcash mailing list. I have explained my solution on superuser.stackexchange where my question (the same as above) was migrated from money.stackexchange.com. I add a link as the answer below. – Sav-econ May 20 '14 at 10:04
  • Glad you sorted it out! I'd probably just delete this one, since it doesn't really add anything to the other. However, I'm not 100% sure what the policy is on cross-stack-exchange dupes, and you get 15 rep from this question. :) – Sparhawk May 20 '14 at 10:40

The GNUcash mailing list helped me to resolve this issue. My answer to the same question can be found on superuser.stackexchange here

(Perhaps these questions should be merged.)
