pL editor indicators gone
Posted: Aug 26 2006
I installed new version of IB TWS and I started MC and changed to offline mode due to IB not available on saterday.
I got a message about a .jar file missing don't know what file because after restart message did not reappear again.
Now on my charts all indicators are gone which I knew can sometimes happen , but should be fixed offcourse.
After opening PL editor there is only 1 (read one) indicator the rest is gone ,functions are still there.
This is a big problem it will cost me a lot of time to find all self coded indicators and reinstall them on all the charts. hopefully that my backup is still up to date.
Furtermore on one page the QM was opened in a window and when I click on that window the QM does not appear and I cannot close it. I have to open QM once again and the old QM stays there till a new upgrade or new installation.
I have also a daily chart whith data from a metastockfile which cannot be loaded this is simple forward daily data in MS form.
There is still somewhere something going wrong in the server I think
What I did was
1 install new IB TWS
2 started MC and changed to offline
3 May be there was the following conflict
I first started MC and MC tries to contact IB because it was Still online
Then I got a message that there was a new upgrade for IB.
I closed MC and upgraded, but I think that the tsserver was
still running( which has also to be fixed,closing MC must also in all
cases close the server or atleast give a warning when a proces is
still running in the background).Wile the server was running ,the upgrade from IB changed something in the .jar file and therefore the problem.
I still cannot relate this in any way to the dissapearing of all the
indicators in PL editor.
Tommorow Sunday I will try again when IB is back online and see if something changes. Otherwise I am forced to a reinstallment.
Sorry that i missed the Jar file warning and for this lenghty comment but hope that it will contribute to improvement in the product.
