The relevant message is this:
Socket (1) | Connect event error. Windows error code 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. | 2019-08-09 18:19:54.264 *

On the computer which is running TWS make sure that the firewall is allowing connections to TWS for incoming connections. Or you can allow the port number 7496. That should solve the problem.
