The middle of the three cases -- start normally and then launch VS from the editor displays the exceptions. If VS is not involved at all I don't know whee to look for the equivalent of the VS Output window.
-
problem just starting from VS? Or is it also running into issue starting up normally?

Good suggestion. A bit time-consuming, but I did it. Did not affect the problem, though.

Try reinstalling the correct .NET version.Originally posted by ETFVoyageur View PostI just ran through the sequence that shows the exceptions and got them. None show up in the trace file, though. I just emailed you the trace file, as you asked.
Next I tried to start NT from VS (the stuff you zipped up a bit back). That has been working fine, up until recently. The NT workspace that was to get started has just a Control Center, and nothing else -- could not be simpler. Did not get far enough to make a trace file. Ended with the Beta splash screen and a dialog saying "ArgumentException was unhandled" with the additional information: "Requested value 'Replay' was not found" Here's the Output window content:
and the call stackCode:Exception thrown: 'System.ArgumentNullException' in System.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll WARNING: Session Break (Version 8.0.0.12) Cbi.Globals.MachineId: True/True 302EC07CD02EAA7D24DAC6D0CAB76B32 Cbi.Licence.Verify5 Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.ArgumentException' in mscorlib.dll
I'm really mystified. Everything was working quite smoothly until very recently. I am not aware of changing anything other than a Windows update, but it worked for a couple of days after the update. It is hard to believe that NT is having serious problems or else I would not be the only one noticing it. Besides, I have completely reinstalled NT. It's hard to believe VS is causing the problems. As for my system, it's Windows 10 with all patches applied. Nothing else is having any problem that I can see.

I'm just mystified. My presumption is that I have messed up some simple little thing, though I don't see how that would affect the case where VS is started from the editor. That's all NT-approved procedure with nothing of mine involved.

Some exceptions which are thrown and handled by NT are expected (e.g. wouldn't worry about the thread abort exceptions). I did a test on my side and I do not get those exceptions on compile/startup.
Do you see the exceptions in the My Documents > NinjaTrader 8 > Trace > trace.txt file for the session you ran into this one, Could you send that my way so I could take a look at the trace.

I shut down NT while VS as attached. I see a couple of ThreadAbortException's. I do not know whether or not they interfere with going down cleanly.

Grasping at straws, I rebooted. The toolbar icon is now correct. I still get the exceptions, though.

There is one irrelevant 2008 thread that search turns up. I also did not find anything useful via Google.
I just went back and redid things as basically as possible. Pure vanilla, nothing special about me.
- Uninstall NinjaTrader 8
- Delete the NinjaTrader 8 folder (uninstall left it behind, presumably in case I had work there)
- Run the .msi file to reinstall NT8 -- just accepted the default choices
- Run NT8, declining its offer to carry forward NT7 settings
- Bring up the editor
- Set debug mode
- Compile (F5)
- Click on the editor button to run Visual Studio Community 2015, Update 3
- VS attach to the NT process
- Do F5 again in the NT editor
- See the following output in the VS 'Output' window
Note that what I did was totally vanilla. There are no settings or choices of mine involved, and there is no code of mine involved. Next I created a vanilla chart -- the only input I gave it was to specify the security symbol (SPY). That got me some more exceptions in the Output window.Code:Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.ArgumentNullException' in mscorlib.dll
Are all these exceptions expected? Is it really right that such simple basic actions in NT are generating these exceptions? If not, then I would appreciate any suggestions for how to fix the issue, or at least how to proceed.Code:Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.ArgumentNullException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.Xml.XmlException' in NinjaTrader.Core.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.Xml.XmlException' in NinjaTrader.Core.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll
=====
Are those NT's messages? If so, it would REALLY help if you would also provide the pathname it is looking for.
=====
I also wonder what is causing the toolbar icon to be a white rectangle instead of the NT icon that is its symbol with an "8" on it?

Hello ETFVoyageur,
Thank you for your post.
I would recommend searching these messages specifically in a search engine to see the cause. The exceptions appear to occur for a number of reasons, so I would browse through the results of your search to see what possible causes there are and if you performed any of these.

What am I doing wrong?
This has got to be so simple I'll be embarrassed to find what I am overlooking, but here goes.
I have been doing just fine, doing my development in VS and running NT8 from there. "I did not change anything" but the setup no longer works. Obviously I did change something, but I have no idea what that could be. I even reinstalled NT8. I added my skin file, but made no other changes. In particular, I have not put any of my source files back into the tree, so the build is purely what comes with NT8. (FWIW: I am running Windows 10 with the latest update.)
*) NT8 runs fine when run directly, so it would seem that NT8 and Widows are fine.
*) Next I tried running Visual Studio from the NT Editor and attaching to the process. That went smoothly, but when I recompile in the editor the VS output window shows some exceptions. Is that normal? (Note that this step involves nothing other than what came with NT8 and a vanilla VS. No code of mine.)
*) Then I went to what I really want to do, and what has been working well up until now -- running VS directly and starting NT8 from there. When I do so, NT8 gets started, but soon crashes. It runs long enough to put up its "Beta" splash screen. The next thing I see is a dialog saying "ArgumentException was unhandled", with detail "Requested value 'Replay' was not found." This is, regrettably, 100% reproducible.Code:Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll Exception thrown: 'System.ArgumentNullException' in mscorlib.dll
Here's the output window content:
