Database Size??

[cocopod]

Hi all,

Just restarted Ninja with new log and trace files and found the message below in the Trace


The database file is larger than the configured maximum database size. This setting takes effect on the first concurrent database connection only. [ Required Max Database Size (in MB; 0 if unknown) = 257 ]

Is this Ninja or me?

Hello cocopod,

Thank you for your post.

This would be caused by the database becoming too large and/or corrupt. Please rename your database with the following steps:
Please rename your database with the following steps :

• Shutdown NinjaTrader and Go to the Start Menu
• Select My Documents--> NinjaTrader 7--> DB--> NinjaTrader.SDF.
• Right click on NinjaTrader.SDF and select "Rename." *Name it "OLDNinjaTrader.SDF."
• Then restart the software and NinjaTrader will create a fresh database file to use

Unfortunately the following items stored in the old database will be lost - ATM Strategy templates, Session templates, Instrument Lists / Custom Instruments, historical trade execution data, saved Strategy Analyzer backtest results.

To prevent running into situations where you can potentially lose important data, we advise to run regular backups via our inbuild backup feature in NinjaTrader - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...up_archive.htm
