Currency Conversions No Longer Working
seb-griffiths opened this issue · comments
Can reproduce. Error began after upgrading to 3.2.1.
I can't reproduce this.
@sebcomputercat Please post the contents of the log file (Enter conv workflow:openlog
into Alfred to view it.)
Screenshots aren't much help: I know what my workflow looks like.
I also tried downgrading to 3.2 and resetting the OER App ID but no luck.

@ttp2113 That's not enough information to diagnose the problem. Please post the log file (instructions immediately above).
Same thing happens to me after the update:

Could it be that it happens because of Yahoo Finance shutting down their API? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15616880
Cryptocurrency conversions still work for me. @sebcomputercat @ttp2113 can you confirm?
EDIT: @deanishe nvm my Yahoo comment, I just saw that you're using openexchangerates.org
Having the same problem
I have no idea what has changed but today, this is working as it should. I'll leave the discussion open for a short while before closing as some appear to be having the issue still.
Great that it fixed itself for you.
Here is my log, @deanishe
https://pastebin.com/wPHWS8EF
@sebcomputercat
I have no idea what has changed but today
The cache expired and the workflow downloaded new exchange rates.
@freshfey Did you get it working? (The instructions are in the log you posted.)
@everybody If you've set APP_KEY
, the problem is almost certainly because the workflow is working from an old cache of exchange rates (which only contains cryptocurrencies). v3.2.1 should delete any old caches on first run, but only if you've upgraded to it from a version below 3.1 (i.e. one that used Yahoo! Finance). If you updated from v3.2 to v3.2.1, it won't clear the cache, and you have to do it manually with conv workflow:delcache
or wait until the workflow updates exchange rates again (every 6 hours by default).
@deanishe , I tried an upgrade from 3.0 to 3.2.1 and currency conversion works successfully. When I'm back at my other machine, I can try the cache delete or a downgrade to <3.2 followed up an upgrade to 3.2.1 to see if that addresses it.
@Alacho2 You appear to be using an old version of the workflow. Enter conv workflow:update
to install the latest version and let me know if you're still having problems.
Also, I see you're using Google Drive to sync your Alfred.preferences. Please note that Google Drive and iCloud are not recommended for syncing:
Apple's iCloud and Google Drive have been unreliable options for many users, resulting in lost preferences or file conflicts, so we do not recommend them for syncing preferences.
@deanishe upgraded from 3.2 to 3.2.2 and everything is working. I am able to also verify that if APP_KEY is not set, that I am presented with a warning.
@ttp2113 Glad it’s working for you. Looks like 3.2.2 should behave correctly on update. Sorry for the dodgy versions.
@deanishe works now after setting APP_KEY
👍 Thanks!
@deanishe Perfect, now it's working!
For the record: I only use Google Drive to store the files. Not the sync, as I'm only in possession of one MacOS-product. :)
Seems to be working for everyone. I'll close this issue, then.
