Post From: Cannot connect to Rithmic

I have been unable to get realtime data through my Topstep Rithmic data feed. I've used this for a couple years and last week it consistently failed to connect. I contacted Topstep and they said I need to reach out to SC support.

The pop up error message is " Connection error message from service: Rithmic Trading | Logon error received from server | Data-Time: 2022-01-31

Here is a bit of the error message from the message log:

Where I saw the message that Rithmic Bridge is not running, I tried to manually start the bridge by clicking on the icon in the Rim folder. The app started but gave an error message that the port was not specified.

Can you assist?
