We have had a few clients running into issues with the Stock Quote Web Part, I am working on an updated documentation/troubleshooting guide but for now here are a few issues you might run into (especially if you are wanting to hit your own local web service to pull stock information which is faster).
1. Within your WSS\ directory you will want to modify your web.config. There is a line that looks like
2. Within your WSS\wpresources\ directory there is another web.config file. You will want to modify this web.config and remove the lines at the top relating to the .asmx files ( I believe its something like... ) This is necessary in order for the web service to work on your local system.
3. If the web service works on your system (you can test by navigating to http://yoursite/wpresources/Stock-Q...arch.asmx) but its still not working on your within the web part then make sure you enable anonymous access to a user (with very little rights). This is done in IIS, open the properties within IIS for the WSS site, go to directory security, and enable anonymous access to the default user or a user with limited rights. You can still have windows authentication enabled.

I wanted to follow up on this post...
Many customers have had issues with running this web.part in Medium Trust environment. There is a quick fix to get this to work.
1. Backup this file (just make a backup copy for your own records)
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\config\wss_mediumtrust.config
2. Modify this area of the file:
Within this file there is some text for the web.permission that is limiting it from connecting to yahoo finance.
Change this from:
To:
class="WebPermission"
version="1" >
Replace:
With your domain (make sure to use the \ as mentioned above)
You can open this up even further if you wished but its not needed...
class="WebPermission"
version="1" Unrestricted="true">

Thanks for the hints.
I would like to get it working on the internal. At the moment it gives me an error 403 (forbidden). I have anonymous enabled, but was unable to find anything in either web.config to do with asmx files.
Not sure what you were referring to for #1 above (first post) as there is nothing there, maybe it was dropped off the post. ie, looks like ????
same with #2, something like ...
Thankms |

Wish I could delete what I posted. Anyway, I got different error now. This is when I have mode off and using local server. I have to get local working, other method is too slow (about 1-2 minutes).

Hi. If you are getting this error this means that the file you have is out of date. We had this issue and determined what was causing it, this should have been fixed with the most recent download file but I will need to check. For now I am going to send you the most recent file via email, please let me know if this fixes you up.
-Chad

Hi: I am having a similar problem when I use the web service located on this system. For some reason, it gives me an 404 error message indicated Not Found. The following is the message: ERROR: The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found. I am able to browse the dataspringstocksearch.asmx file successfully, and able to see the stock quote if I uncheck this option. However, the performance is extremely slow if this option is checked.

I am having a same problem, getting 404 error. The web service is up and dataspringstocksearch.asmx does not have test button. The local web service is not working, changed web part to use personal web service and stock quote web part started to work again. Want to go back to use sharepoint's local web service? Please advise
Thanks,
Troy |

Yahoo (it appears) was temporarily taking down its site quote.yahoo.com (although it appears to be back up now I guess?). Either way, if that happens again or if they ever take it down permanently you need to go into your inetpub\wwwroot\wss\wpresources\stockquote directory and modify the file called DataSpringsStockSearch.asmx. Where you see quote.yahoo.com change that to be download.finance.yahoo.com and it should work properly after that. -Chad |

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Posted By Chad on 09/18/2007 12:57 PM
We have had a few clients running into issues with the Stock Quote Web Part, I am working on an updated documentation/troubleshooting guide but for now here are a few issues you might run into (especially if you are wanting to hit your own local web service to pull stock information which is faster).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So how is that updated documentation coming along? I am trying to get this thing to work on our internal test MOSS implementation and it has been problematic to say the least--the permission problem so far.
There are config files all over the place and there are numerous policy files to boot. We use tons of other 3rd party web parts so I would imagine that we're using custom policies.
Can you provide a step by step on this? Perhaps you can create an msi for it? KwizCom and Bamboo Solutions web parts install with a few simple clicks.

Hi
My developers made the change and we now get the following error:
ERROR:System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to process request. ---> System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required. at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse() at outthebox.web.services.YahooQuoteWebService.GetQuote(String symbol) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---
When we put the address (http://download.finance.yahoo.com/d...vj1pp2wern) in a browser, the correct data is displayed.
Is there anything else we have to do?

The Stock Quote Web Part makes the site it is on load extremely slow. I noticed in the above posts that there is a way to have the Stock Quote grab information off the local server and then have the local server update the information from the web. This was suppose to help the page load quicker. I was unsuccessful at getting this to work. Just curious if there is a guide for setting up the Stock Quote Web Part to get information from a local server. Thanks! |

I would for sure set it to use the local web service. Then... Do you get a 401 UnAuthorized Error? If so... Go into your \site\wpresources\ directory... There is its own web.config file there and open it in notepad (after making a backup). Within that file I think line 4 or 5 you will see a line that references *.asmx. Remove that entire line (this will allow .asmx files to operate on your server, right now that line makes it forbidden for it to work). So, remove that line and save and you should be ok. -Chad |

When I add the Web Part, only the following text is displayed: ERROR: The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not found. I've already replaced quote.yahoo.com with download.finance.yahoo.com in the DataSpringsStockSearch.asmx file. Still the same error. Any Help? Thanks |

Hi, I downloaded a trial version of Stock Quote web part and installed but it is loading extremely slow. I tried two fixes that you suggested but it didn't help. 1. I deleted the following line from the web.config file located in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80\wpresources. 2. In the wss_mediumtrust.config file located in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\CONFIG\ I changed this from: To: class="WebPermission" version="1" Unrestricted="true"> Any help would be great. |
