Post From: SC1232 Problem Downloading IB FX Historical Data

I upgraded from 24 to 32 and it failed to download historical data for daily fx.

I closed and reopened TWS.

I tried fresh symbols using "find a symbol"

I did a clean install and only added Accounts.cfg

Here's the log from the clean version:
