Some of you may have seen some other posts I've made about this, but I think I've tracked down the problem.

Background: last month Chase credit cards made a "security enhancement" change that has made all OFX downloads since 11/17 fail. The error message says to got to the Chase secure message center for info on how to verify your identity, but no such message ever appears. The section at http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Setting_up_OFXDirectConnect_in_GnuCash_2#Chase_.22username_or_password_are_incorrect.22 indicates the need for using a UID (user id) within the OFX request. It looks like they associate that user UID with the account, probably to limit access. However, the first time they see a UID on an OFX request, they should generate a PIN and send it to your account at their Secure Message Center. You then use that PIN on another page the message links to. I suppose since KMM isn't sending the UID, they don't generate that message.

So - I don't see any place in KMM for a user UID. In fact, looking into the libOFX source, I see the UUID type defined, but no element defined as that type which looks like a user id. Can someone confirm this is correct, and if so, does this need to be brought up on the libOFX list before there is anything that KMM can do? (Other forum messages I've seen seem to indicate that aqbanking can handle this, so I'll see if I can get this set up, but I hate to spin my wheels if someone can provide a more definitive answer.

Thanks.

Jack
