I just upgraded to the latest Windows standalone TWS version 918.4. MC no longer connects to TWS. I downgraded to the previous release 917.8 and it works fine. I then upgraded again to 918.4 and the problem came back. I'm still running MC 6.01. Cleaning out the temporary files for Java and rebooting did not help. On my other PC I have MC 7.0 Beta 1 and it suffers the exact same problem.
Anyone else having the same issue?

Re: TWS upgrade breaks MC?
Thanks TJ, I'll give that a try. That did cross my mind but according to Stan you don't need to switch if you don't trade automatically. Will soon find out.

Re: TWS upgrade breaks MC?
Upgraded 7.0 to Beta 4 and unfortunately it didn't fix the problem. So, the latest TWS upgrade is inoperable, at least for my two systems. So, is there anyone who is using the latest TWS successfully?
Re: TWS upgrade breaks MC?
I also got a Problem since updatingg to TWS 918.4 :
When I am logged into TWS and start MC 7.4 the IB-tab is "green" but MC get no Connection to Live-Charts. After 1 minute MC want to log in again to TWS while TWS is still running.
After downgrading to TWS 917 MC is working fine.
I made this up- and downgrade 3 times and get allways the same results.

Please see this issue for the appropriate updater files - https://www.multicharts.com/pm/viewissu ... _no=MC-414
Re: TWS upgrade breaks MC?
I haven't checked yet if upgrading MC 6.01 (6.1?) to 6.02 will work. Is it a waste of time doing so? Should I just wait for the official release of MC 7?Please see this issue for the appropriate updater files - https://www.multicharts.com/pm/viewissu ... _no=MC-414
Re: TWS upgrade breaks MC?
Stan, the updater fails on my Vista PC running MC 7.0 Beta 4. The message is:Please see this issue for the appropriate updater files - https://www.multicharts.com/pm/viewissu ... _no=MC-414
Product: MultiCharts Discretionary Trader
Path:
ERROR: '' doesn't exists.
Product probably is not installed.
Is this because I'm running Vista on my test PC?
Anyway, I turned of the auto start feature for TWS in QM and now MC 7.0 Beta 4 works with the latest TWS.
Also, what do we need to do for MC 6.02? I presume we can't use the same updater since it's meant for MC 7. Correct?

MC DT uses a different update plug-in:Stan, the updater fails on my Vista PC running MC 7.0 Beta 4. The message is:Please see this issue for the appropriate updater files - https://www.multicharts.com/pm/viewissu ... _no=MC-414

Re: TWS upgrade breaks MC?
So, this means MC 6 users are stuck without a fix? I find this unacceptable given the official release is still 6.MC DT uses a different update plug-in:

Re: TWS 918 upgrade breaks MC?
Dear traders,
MC6 and MC7 full releases have one updater, MCDT has another updater. Both can be found here - https://www.multicharts.com/pm/viewissu ... _no=MC-414.
If you have full MC 6 or 7, download the MC_IB.zip, unzip and install. If you have MCDT, download MCDT_IB.zip.

Re: TWS 918 upgrade breaks MC?
Yes. For all regular versions of MC.Stan, can MC_IB.zip be used for 6.01 as well as 6.02?
