can't connect symbol

Postby maxpi » 18 Oct 2007

I upgraded TWS and the API to the latest, did a complete wipe of Multicharts and reinstalled the latest version and followed the video tutorial instructions and I cannot get Multicharts to connect a symbol. It can connect to IB and look up the symbols but when I try to connect the symbol in the quote manager it gives error messages in the Log and is unable to connect. I have the API configured in TWS, I have the source configured in Multicharts, everything, but no data...what is it?? I had the same problem a couple months ago and the wipe and reinstall fixed it but this time no go...

It was a Zone Alarm setting!!

I have to kill off Zone Alarm to connect a symbol, probably I blocked Multicharts from acting as a server at some point.... always something...
