[#2139] Real paper-trading has not been acknowledged yet. #40

I'm quite confused, can't find this message anywhere,but it seems to come from ezibpy?

2020-05-22 10:58:40,239 [ERROR] ezibpy: [#2139] Real paper-trading has not been acknowledged yet.

Using a paper trading connection through IB Gateway and the message appears when calling an order... The connection itself works (using the "original" ib api) and I have clicked the "blabla this is paper trading only" message in the ib gateway.

thx in advance!

solved, was an IB Gateway error I guess

if anyone else experiences this:

  1. add "account="DUXXXXX" " to the respective functions (see readme), call again (will fail again)
  2. change stock and call again (now IB Gateway should prompt the mysterious acknowledgment)
  3. Cry & Restart PC
  4. Should work now
