Cannot properly connect data in new account, endless cycle

I cannot successfully connect my data. It seemed to work the first time I was setting it up, to the best of my knowledge, however maybe it was not working then either but I did not have this exact issue. Subsequently, when I connect my data, the chart says “waiting to download historical data,” followed by “downloading historical data. Bars may not appear until done,” and then “historical download complete.” However, this keeps happening in a rapid and endless cycle, and never seems to actually complete. A message log similarly runs continually, quickly scrolling downward, but I cannot understand what it is saying even if it were paused. I sent a log for analysis just now but it says that will not be reviewed unless it was requested. I am using a Rithmic data feed. Although I am not completely certain that it ever properly worked with Sierra and I'm completely new to Sierra (I do think it worked the first time though), I know this data feed works in general, it is capable of providing historical data and have used it with 2 other platforms (not concurrently).Not sure how to proceed and would appreciate any help.

The log you provided is too large.

We want you to close all Chartbooks with File >> Close All Chartbooks and then:

Follow the instructions here to clear the Message Log:
Message Log: Clearing the Message Log

Connect to the data feed:

Select "File >> Disconnect"

Select "File >> Connect to Data Feed"

After about 30 seconds, provide a copy of the Message Log following these instructions:
Support Board Posting Information: How to Post Your Message Log (Required In Some Cases)

We will then determine what the problem is.

It did not get into that cycle after following your instructions so I'm not sure if this reflects the problem but here you go:

The particular pattern you are referencing usually means that you have a symbol somewhere in your chartbooks that Rithmic does not like.

For example, from one of your logs, we see the symbol "ESU24-CME". This is not a Rithmic symbol.

Open your Chartbooks and select "Edit >> Translate Symbols to Current Service". Refer to the following:
Edit Menu: Edit >> Translate Symbols To Current Service

If you continue to have the problem, then use the documentation at the following link to go through all the places that symbols could be entered and either remove, or update them to what Rithmic needs. The following documentation is for cleaning up old symbols, but the basics still apply:
Chart Data and Chart Data Files: Cleaning Up Old and Unused Symbols for Efficiency

Note that there are also other issues with Rithmic connectivity right now, so if you go through all of this and still have issues, then you could also have a general issue with Rithmic. Refer to the following on this:
