Screenshot of a error message

I use KMyMoney version 5.1.2 and "Update Stock and Currency Prices" does not work any more. As Online Source is "Yahoo Finance" configured. I also tried version 5.1.3, but to no avail.

The following error message appears (e.g. American Water Works share; Symbol AWK):
"The file or folder https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v8/finance/chart/AWK does not exist.
Unable to update price for AWK (empty quote data)"

Google Finance, Alpha Vantage do neither work!

How I can get online updates of stocks and currencies again?

The problem is probably caused by a mismatch of your local configuration and changes to the yahoo site.  Maybe, https://discuss.kde.org/t/kmymoney-updating-stock-mutual-fund-issue/1228 may provide some ideas. Could also be, that Yahoo is now requiring something that the 'old' version does not have. This needs to be investigated.

The problem persists. It's not solved!

KMyMoney does not update any price or rate at all.

You wrote yourself in the first message:

> "The file or folder https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v8/finance/chart/AWK does not exist.

And that says it all: yahoo changed the URL and now that setting must be changed in KMyMoney. Since this is user accessible, you can do that yourself. To find out what needs to go in there: the KMyMoney developers don't know because this is a question for Yahoo. I suggest you search the KDE discussion forum at https://discuss.kde.org and search for post including Yahoo.

This is a configuration problem, not a software bug.
