Stuck in read only mode with latest version of ib-gateway 10.34.1a

[lkaino]

My ib-gateway has been stuck in read-only mode since last Thursday, after updating the image to the latest version.

The Configure --> Settings won't open the dialog when connected using VNC.

Reverting back to version 10.33.1f fixes the issue.

I can reproduce the issue, it seems to be a problem with ib-gateway i'm getting java exceptions in the log

[gnzsnz]

it seems to be an issue with IBC IbcAlpha/IBC#285

The workaround to have 10.34 working requires a volume for tws settings path ex TWS_SETTINGS_PATH=/home/ibgateway/Jts

1. Open this file(on your host) with a text editor:

$PWD/tws_settings/1034/.install4j/pref_jre.cfg

Replace the single line that it contains with this:

ib-gateway -> /home/ibgateway/.local/share/i4j_jres/Oda-jK0QgTEmVssfllLP/1.8.0_202_64
TWS -> /config/.local/share/i4j_jres/Oda-jK0QgTEmVssfllLP/1.8.0_202_64

2. Now run IBC again and it should work fine.

Thank you for investigating the issue. I'll try it out! I wonder if we need this workaround for all upcoming versions?

I hope it can be fixed on IBC

issue #234 created to track this issue.

⚠️⚠️⚠️

Please use 10.34.1.c as it ships latest IBC. stable version is working fine with previous version of IBC.
