Evidently, Yahoo finance has shutdown their service URL and does not provide price updates to Kmymoney. I am using ver. 5.1.3 on KDE Neon, Kubuntu and Ubuntu all latest version with Kmymoney 5.1.3 and 5.1.2, all failing to get the stock & mutual funds prices with the following result:

Fetching URL https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v7/fin ... ls=VBIAX...
Timeout on server query1.finance.yahoo.com: Socket operation timed out
Unable to update price for VBIAX (empty quote data)
[/color]

Glad to see that I"m not the only one! Any fixes?

finance.yahoo.com recently stopped working in kubuntu 22.04.2 (KMyMoney v.5.1.2)

Upate with Finance::Quote also does not work - file is missing
/usr/share/kmymoney/misc/financequote.pl

Operating System: Kubuntu 22.04

Replace and try this URL in the Yahoo URL Online Quotes. "https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v6/finance/quote?fields=regularMarketPrice&symbols=%1" Without the quotes.

Thanks, it works!
Finance::Quote also works with "bourso" source (not for ETF)

Thanks, MCarpino !

Thanks MCarpino. The revison worked!!!!

Excellent thank you.

How's this for bad timing: A couple of days ago I changed my PC and reinstalled everything and I assumed the quote error was some setting in KMM I had missed, so before I came to this forum I spent ages going through every setting I could find and comparing it with the old PC!

Happy to have it working but puzzled as to why the new URL seems to have gone back a version from v7 to v6.

Many, many thanks for your solution: it's works, but how to know about the change from v7 to v6 for Yahoo finance quote?

In my case to solve the problem I have edited the file /home/.config/kmymoneyrc, put the suggested string with v6 and all works !!

You don't have to edit a config file to fix this. In kmymoney, open the settings menu, pick "Configure kmymoney", click the "Online quotes" tab, and then choose "Yahoo finance". You can change the URL there.

Unfortunately my version KMM 5.0 only has a Finance::Quote download option for yahoo, the separate online service is lacking.
I would love to set this up with the yahoo expression as given, but I also need the setup for price and date.
Could you be so kind to post these as well?

regards,

Peter

Not quite sure if this is what you are asking but here is a screenshot of my KMM config page for Yahoo



And here are the long entries to save you typing them in!

Code: Select all

https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v6/finance/quote?fields=regularMarketPrice&symbols=%1


Code: Select all

"regularMarketPrice":((\d+|\d{1,3}(?:[,]\d{3})).\d+)


Code: Select all

"regularMarketTime":([\d]+)


This was exactly what I was looking for, super!
I have tested it and it works again.

Many thanks!

I just tried the posted solution for Yahoo and received the following error when trying to update prices

Fetching URL https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v6/fin ... bols=AGG...
The file or folder https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v6/fin ... ymbols=AGG does not exist.
Unable to update price for AGG (empty quote data).

Kubuntu 22.04 / KMyMoney 5.1.2

Any thoughts?

You are right. It has stopped working again. It worked a couple of days ago.
Based on the previous fix I optimistically tried changing v6 to v7, v5 and v8 with no success. That's the limit of my abilities so we need someone more cleverer.
