21:07:25 <rarsa> Hi
21:08:23 <rarsa> Is there a way to change the default search field?
21:08:55 <rarsa> Whenever I start a search it always proposes to search by "Description". Most of the time I search by value

22:23:23 *** twunder has joined #gnucash
22:24:16 <Ingrid> I'm having trouble getting Finance::Quote working on a new install. When I run "perl gnc-fq-dump -v yahoo AMD", it errors on line 56, no results for stock AMD. I'm running Windows XP SP2, gnucash 2.2.6. Let me know what else I need to tell you.
22:32:29 *** asdf2 has joined #gnucash
22:37:27 *** asdf1 has quit IRC
23:10:24 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
23:10:36 <warlord> rarsa: no. you cannot change that default except programaticallyt
23:10:57 <warlord> Ingrid: what version of ActivePerl?
23:13:39 *** twunder has quit IRC
23:27:10 <Ingrid> ActivePerl 5.5.8 Build 824
23:30:18 <warlord> What is line 56?
23:30:26 <warlord> (what if you don't run with -v?)
23:35:40 <Ingrid> same w/o -v
23:36:48 <Ingrid> Line 56 is near the beginning of the report subroutine. The comment says "sanity check returned results". I'm not great with perl, but it looks like the number of keys is < 1, meaning fetch isn't returning anything.
23:38:38 <Ingrid> Is fetch a perl routine that I could stick some debugging print statements into? If so, where would I find it?
23:42:13 <warlord> to me I see line 56 is: printf("No results found for stock $itemname.\n");
23:42:32 <warlord> What's the actual error?
23:45:23 <rarsa> thank you warlord
23:46:26 <rarsa> I may submit it as an enhancement :) (or do it if I have some time)
23:48:18 <Ingrid> I'm not sure I understand the question. When I run it, the output is "No results found for stock AMD.", coming from that line. No explanation of why it has no results, or what I can do to make it get results. That's why I'm here.
23:48:20 <warlord> rarsa: ummm.. ok...
23:48:47 <warlord> Ingrid: weird. it works for me.
23:49:05 <warlord> are you behind a firewall/gateway?
23:51:05 <Ingrid> I turned my firewall off, and it still didn't work (same error). I'm sure I've got something odd in my setup, but I don't know where to look.
23:55:12 <warlord> unfortunately it's windows, which makes debugging hard.
23:55:31 <warlord> It sounds like yahoo isn't returning any data to you
23:55:39 <warlord> which means your connection to yahoo isn't working..
23:56:02 <warlord> which could be anything from a broken internet to a broken proxy server connection.
23:56:14 <warlord> I dont know if you have a 'wireshark' for windows?
23:57:07 <Ingrid> no wireshark. And I forgot to mention that I tried other sources as well with same error.
23:57:50 <warlord> which leads me to believe a broken network/proxy config
23:58:36 <Ingrid> thx for trying. I need to log off.
23:58:44 <warlord> i know the code works for others on windows
