NT6 Crashing while paper trading

[kgillis23]

While using NT6 to paper trade with a Gain/Forex demo account I have several (about 8) chart windows open, each running an NT strategy. After a few hours I get the following error msg:

Failed to excute db job 'OrderUpdateJob': Cannot start your
application. The workgroup informatin file is missing or opened
exclusively by another user.

I get this error a number of times and I have discovered that my strategy has quit running. Once I resond to the error messages (there are a number of them) NT then crashes.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks -

Have you installed NT by chance on a network drive? http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/v...1586#post11586

No, this is only thing I have running on a standalone desktop. It is installed under "My Documents" in the
C:/Documents and Settings/Mine.MINE-7SMUO4AEZ/My Documents folder.
(I don't know why the one folder is not called "Administrator" as is expected... but I am using a basement bargain home built PC for this... the only one my wife would let me purchase to pursue this crazy idea of currency trading.....)
When installing I just allowed nt to install where ever it defaulted to.

Sorry I would not know what causes this. There is definitely something weird with your <my documents> folder but I would not know how to overcome that.

2nd thought: You could try to create a new user and see if another weird user name/directory is created.

Note: Please make sure this new has admin privileges too.

Thanks, I will give that a try, and also see if I can narrow down what conditions causes this problem.
