I was able to figure out a couple of things but now I'm getting the following error

Hi:

Anyone know how I can get rid of the below highlighted error when running ABCDCurl: "Bad zip file.. could not extract Bhavcopy"

It means you are not getting file from nse server

It means you are not getting file from nse server

But the message says that the NSEBhavcopy Zip file did get downloaded, just that the ABCDCurl could not extract it.

Along with this message, as mentioned in my earlier message, simultaneously, another screen Rebol/View opens up where the following message is displayed:

** Access Error: Cannot open /D/ABCD/ABCDCurl/NSE/ind_close_all_03042020.csv
** Where: csv-import
** Near: temp: read/lines file
temp2: copy
>>

Infact, when I go to the NSE folder in ABCD, the NSEBhavcopy Zip file is there which I'm able to manually extract but it's a tedious task.

So, the Bhavcopy in zipped format is getting downloaded but it's not getting extracted (unzipped) as a part of the ABCDCurl program.

That's the problem.

Are you having latest version of Application? Download again and check. I hope you have windows 10

Hi:

It's the latest version of the application. However, I have Windows 7. Any work around?

Windows 7 does not have Curl.exe. You will have to manually copy it into system32 folder. Better way is to install windows10 which comes pre installed with Curl.exe. Win 10 also does not require to be activated for running amibroker or rtd. It does not allow you to personlise certain aspects.

Following earlier instructions, I had already copied curl.exe in the systems 32 folder. Also, as per earlier suggestion, had removed it from the ABCDCurl folder.

It seems everything is working, it's downloading the bhavcopies etc. Only that when it comes to unzipping the bhavcopy, it's not being able to do it. Don't know what's going wrong. Also, it seems I'm the only one facing this issue because I've got to believe there have to be others who're using it on Windows 7. Thanks
