getquote extension download error

Post by tom9940 »

I am using OpenOffice4.01 on Windows 7 on a Dell desktop computer.

I get an error

"cannot detect media-type: file:///C:/Users/Tom/AppData/Roaming/OpenOffice/4/user/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/
sv3103f.tmp_/GetQuote.oxt "

when I try to download a newer version of the getquote extension. I am trying to replace version 0 with version 1.0 since my current file is apparently corrupted. I find it a very useful extension, when it is working.

It would be helpful to have a similar extension that would work on stock options (puts & calls).
OOo 4.1.1 on MS Windows 10 (as of 9/19/15)

You must not dump the downloaded file into your profile folder. Put it somewhere in your own folders and install it via Tools>ExtensionManager...[Add...]
