Post From: Intraday futures data from IB not downloading

Everything was working fine last Friday (3/8). Today (3/13) is the first day since then I have started up my instance of Sierra which uses Interactive Brokers futures data. On startup, when Sierra attempts to download intraday futures data (example: for NQ-202406-CME), the message "Downloading Historical Data. Bars may not appear until done.", but the no data arrives and after a LONG (many minutes) delay, the download is cancelled with an error message in the log file from Interactive Brokers.

I updated from version 2604 to 2611 but this did not fix the problem.

Did the changes you're making for IB stock data inadvertently break futures data downloads?

Do I need to alter some settings?

Log file attached.
