Database issue?

[coolmoss]

I was downloading 120 days of tick data for the ES ##-## from the Historical Data Manager. The ticks downloaded, but the HDM hung, everything grayed out. In the Control Center status bar, it says "Saving".

I tried restarting Ninja multiple times, rebooted computer, did a db repair, tried removing the instrument from Ninja, manually deleted all the ES data files and some other stuff I forgot. I can't get the "Saving" to go away. Also, upon starting NT, the status bar shows "Loading ES"... for the entire period I originally attempted to download ticks for. Can't stop that either.

I do understand 120 days is a huge amount of tick data for ES, but in my defense I allowed over 3 hours for the task to complete before even touching computer.

How can I get things back to normal in the status bar?

coolmoss,

Is there an option to abort? Sometimes this shows up as a button in the lower right of the control center for various data requests. Who is your data provider?

[coolmoss]

No abort button. I've left NT open all day and the status panel is just stuck like this:

So far, all other functionality seems okay, other than ES ##-## not wanting to load in charts.

Thanks very much for the weekend reply!

EDIT: after several reboots and restarts, it seems to be okay
