KmyMoney Currency update not working in version 5.1.3

I am experiencing the following error when I try to update stock and currency prices:

Fetching URL …://fx-rate.net/EUR/GBP…
Access denied to …://fx-rate.net/EUR/GBP.
Unable to update price for EUR > GBP (empty quote data)

Can anyone help me ?

Same for me. Can anyone help please?

The provider of fx-rate.net apparently added a captcha page in front of the service to prevent misuse which is provided by cloudflare. This breaks the download for applications like KMyMoney, sorry.

You can check this yourself using curl:

ok thank you. So what can be a solution? using another provider like Yahoo finance?

Check out the thread ‘KMoney currency udpates not working’
Start at Response 55 from ‘Mark_Davies’

Their is a slight confusion about the Price field but this works

(\w+)(\d+.\d+)

When I tried to paste the Price field into the previous message it gets corrupted.
Following Mark_Davies explanation will lead you to the right information

Hi, for currencies see this possibile solution.
