ejtrader, I got it to work in the end. I ended up talking to IB technical support. The main issue seems to be, that IB Gateway uses default port 4002 (from memory) and not the 7496 port used by TWS. This can be changed in the ibg.xml file. So we changed this manually. When it still did not work, the tech support guy sent me a new version of the ibg.xml file and this now works fine. So looks my ibg.xml file was corrupted (even though it was the default that came with the latest version of IB TWS/ Gateway). So if it still does nor work when changing ports manually in the ibg.xml file, you should probably best call IB tech support. |
