Hi Garrett,
Gateway connects fine to the IB server. However, I have a problem
connecting IBrokers to Gateway.
The error message for *Gateway* is the same as when I forget to click
Enable ActiveX and Socket Clients in the *TWS* settings. But in
Gateway I cannot find such a setting.
tws - twsConnect()
Error in socketConnection(host = host, port = port, open = ab,
blocking = blocking) :
cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In socketConnection(host = host, port = port, open = ab, blocking =

Do you use any special settings for Gateway?
Thanks,

For me, `reqCurrentTime` works fine in the demo TWS version, like all
the other examples in the vignette, except for `twsFuture`.

[R-SIG-Finance] IBrokers Problem
All, I'm trying to better understand how to use the IBrokers package by going through the `IBrokers.pdf` vignette. I'm using the demo version of TWS (login `edemo`). TWS seems to be running fine. However, I get stuck at the following command from the vignette: reqContractDetails(tws, twsEquity()) R just seems to hang and I don't get any further response. My sessionInfo is below.

Re: [R-SIG-Finance] IBrokers Problem
Thanks, Garrett, for your help anyway. I tried restarting TWS, but that
didn't help. Maybe I should try it on Ubuntu instead of Fedora.
Are you running TWS/Gateway on OpenJDK or Sun Java?
For IB Gateway, should I use the FIX CTCI or the IB API? When I log in
with CTCI I get Status is inactive and I cannot change any settings.
For the IB API in Gateway I get:
Fatal Error: one of the following jar files is missing from the
classpath: rss.jar
Anyway, this particular one is a Gateway issue (not an IBrokers issue).
Thanks,
Michael

Does it work for you in the demo TWS version as well?
For me, `reqCurrentTime` works fine in the demo TWS version, like all
the other examples in the vignette, except for `twsFuture`.
reqCurrentTime(tws)
TWS Message: 2 -1 2104 Market data farm connection is OK:ibdemo
TWS Message: 2 -1 2106 HMDS data farm connection is OK:demohmds

Interestingly, when I run the following code, I get some feedback from
the Unix shell that runs TWS.
tws - twsConnect()
reqContractDetails(tws, twsEquity(QQQ)) # R hangs here.
^C
twsDisconnect(tws)
So when I run `twsDisconnect` (only after running `reqContractDetails`)
in the example above, I get the following output in the Unix shell from
Java:

I don't know; it works for me. Does reqCurrentTime(tws) return the
current time?

The ticker for that ETF changed to QQQ on March 23, 2011
Try reqContractDetails(tws, twsEquity(QQQ))
