fxDreema cannot find the expert advisor requested by you
-
On launching the desktop version of fxDreema, I've started seeing the message:
__fxDreema cannot find the expert advisor requested by you, so the last modified expert advisor will now load[/quote:3nfbh9yb]
In the bar above is the name of the EA to be loaded. Clicking OK then loads the EA correctly. The EA called "blank" in this case, was created moments before, fxDreema was then closed and re-opened, so the EA was definitely there.Is this something to be concerned about? Or can it be safely ignored?
I've attached screenshots, one of the error message, one of the EA, which as you can see is just about blank!
-
This message appears after you delete some EA, but after the deletion, no other EA was loaded, so the database still points to the old EA that is no longer exist. It's nothing bad, especially when you know that you just deleted some EA.
And this "blank" EA is one of yours, created some time ago - the one that fxDreema choosed to load instead of missing one.
If you delete all the EA's, a new "Empty" one will be created. In some situation you can see "Unnamed" one, which is because of some bug that I did not investigate, but "blank" one is your creation.
In any case, you don't have really missing EA's? No loss of data out there?
-
I take your point that a) no data is lost, and b) its nothing to worry about.
But the message appears after fxDreema was shutdown with a saved EA loaded, in other words no deleted EA. So I created the EA "blank", saved it, closed fxDreema, and re-launched fxDreema, and the "cannot find..." message appears.
Its nothing more than an annoyance, and easily ignored!!
-
Without deletion it sounds like a bug for me, but unfortunately it does not happen to me at the moment -
Do you want me to post it as a but, or just leave it? Happy to do as you wish!

Oh no, I don't like bugs
There is a file named ".lastloaded.fxdb" inside "fxDreema/Data/experts" and it should contain the ID of the last loaded project. What's in yours ".lastloaded.fxdb" and is this file... locked or something?
-
".lastloaded.fxdb" contains the text:
__mt5-6335[/quote:377mlgbt]
The folder "C:\Program Files\FxDreema\Data\fxDreema\experts\mt5-6335" does exist.It is installed in c:\program files, but since I'm logged in with full admin privileges, and Windows says I'm the "owner", that shouldn't be an issue. It doesn't seem to be locked.

Do you think this "variables" glitch is related to the "cannot find the expert advisor requested by you" problem? I know you hate bugs, so lets call it a "problem"!!
From time to time my "Constants (Inputs)" link disappears and all I see is:
Usually - not always - when I close and relaunch fxDreema my Constants link comes back. -
No, variables and constants should not be linked in any way with this problem.
When you load some project, it should write it's ID into ".lastloaded.fxdb" file. That's how it remembers the last loaded project. The next time fxDreema starts, it looks inside ".lastloaded.fxdb" to know what project to load. If there is no such a project present, this warning message appears.
But this never happened to me, I think. Yes, it's possible that I'm missing something here, who knows... Can you tell me what's inside your ".lastloaded.fxdb" file, or at least is the record inside pointing to one of your existing projects? This is pure text file basically and it can be opened with Notepad. -
Hi
Sorry. My fault for doing 2 successive posts! But this one was just before the one about the variables and constants thing:
__".lastloaded.fxdb" contains the text:

As always, many thanks.

Oops, missed that post
I have no idea why is this happens, and again... if I see it here, I will fix it, but I don't know how to replicate it on my PC
