Post From: IB - Symbol is unknown

For the intraday INDU-IND-NYSE chart, I get this message: Symbol is unknown....No security definition has been found for the request. In the Global Symbol Settings, INDU-IND-NYSE is in the list. I have upgraded to SC ver. 1750 but also had the same problem in 1520 or whatever previous version I was using. Has the symbol changed? In TWS, the symbol INDU is updating in real-time.

Using File/Find Symbol or delete/download data on the chart makes no difference.

I want to Global Symbol settings and clicked "update from server."
I also did a full reset of the symbols. When that didn't help, I replaced the new GlobalSymbolSettings.xml file with the old one.

Thank you for any assistance. I believe this is the relevant log info:
