You are the first one to ever encounter this.

Your system must be low on memory. We recommend restarting your computer.

That issue is completely different because it is affecting a different object.

Possibly there is a problem related to the Trade Activity Log file. Rename the TradeActivityLog.dat file in the Sierra Chart folder to TradeActivityLog.dat.backup.

Try starting Sierra Chart again.

However, if this succeeds, then do not proceed to do any trading. Just let us know what happens.

This has been done, had over 31 files. Tried restarting, still no resolve. Previously was running a custom DLL study.

Go to the folder Sierra Chart is installed to and attach the Sierra3.Cfg file. It can be privately attached. We will test that.

Here are instructions:

We want you to download Sierra Chart from this page:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/download.php

And install it to a different folder on your system and start it to see if you encounter the same error. Let us know.

OK we are working on this now, adding more logging. Just give us a few hours.

This is an usual condition. But we will isolate the problem and see what is happening.

We think we discovered the reason for the problem. We should have a new release out in about 30 minutes.

Although the problem apparently is that the file containing the next available internal order ID is not writable in the folder that Sierra Chart installed to.

Actually our conclusion may have been incorrect.

We are releasing 1417 in about 15 minutes. We will want you to test it. And let us know all of the error messages you see.

OK interesting we actually now know the reason for the problem.

It relates to additional logging that was added to solve the problem earlier you had with Interactive Brokers position data.

We will fix this.
