Hello Support,

since the new JForex API 2.11 the Historical Tester hangs on "Getting prices before start time.." and the Chart window is clear!
I have tested different strategies. Not one still works!

Can you confirm that?

many greetings...

There seems to be a problem with the operating System.

Windows 7 64bit - it works!
Windows 8.1 64bit - does not work
Windows Server 2012 64bit - does not work

Support please!

We could not repeat the problem on Windows 7 nor Windows 8.1 64 bit

Is Java version one and the same in all cases? On which Java version is there a problem?
Also, does the normal chart opens well?

Thx for your answer...

Java version on all machines are the same (Java 8 Update 25).
The normal chart is ok! Only in Historical Tester the chart is empty!

In LIVE-Mode the Historical Tester works just fine! (API 2.10.3)

The only thing that is changed is the API version from 2.10.3 to 2.11 in Demo.
I think it's not a problem with Java himself!

And now?

The same problem was on windows and linux. Just solved.
The problem was in java 8 Update 25.
You need to remove java and install previous version Java SE Runtime Environment 7u71. Everithing works fine.

Well, I have the same problem and a colleague of mine too.

I have Windows 7 (64bit) and when I've installed Java 8 Update 25 the Historical Tester has stopped working frozen on the start ("Getting prices before start time").
Luckily I was able to uninstall Java 8 and return to the previous version (Java 7 Update 67) and everything started working again.

In our case it was the update to Java 8 to trigger the problem. For now we can work well with Java 7, but sooner or later we'll have to switch to Java 8 and the problem will be serious.

Help please!

but the Live Console works just fine with Java 8!

Here the Java log if the Demo Console starts:
