Discussion of article "How to Prepare a Trading Account for Migration to Virtual Hosting" - page 31

 

Found out that it is impossible to write a file on hosting.

But if you specify it in

#property tester_file "file_name_c_data".

, it opens (I haven't checked if it will be written yet).

Is this the only way to store your data (write all file paths explicitly when compiling)?

Why not give the possibility to write your data within the same 64 Mb that are allowed to be transferred to the server?

 

Hello,

second day the signal is not copied (16-17.05.2016). During the trial period everything worked fine, switched to paid - does not copy, although migrated to paid and synchronised without problems. Help please.

Now in the log of my MT4 found an entry "signal subscription disabled, enable realtime subscription in "Signals" settings". I.e. virtual hosting has nothing to do with it, why I do not have a subscription, because I migrated and synchronised the signal, why I cancelled the subscription, how to enable it?

You can only specify a specific file name.

You cannot transfer a folder with files.

The Expert Advisor can create files on virtual hosting.

Did you pay for virtual hosting built into the terminal? Did you select "Synchronise Expert Advisors, indicators and signal" during synchronization? Before synchronisation, in the terminal settings, "Signals" tab, did you uncheck "Copy Stop Loss and Take Profit levels"?

Please attach log files of the virtual terminal (Terminal and Experts).

Maybe the term has expired, or maybe you yourself, before migration to virtual hosting switched off the subscription in the terminal.

As soon as I unchecked "Copy Stop Loss and Take Profit levels", I immediately got messages in the log about connection to the signals service and about subscription activation, it was all about this checkbox. Thanks for your help.

You are welcome.
 
Is there a possibility to switch off the Expert Advisor programmatically on hosting during the news release? The news indicators I know use DLLs, which is forbidden on hosting.

Only manually from the terminal or from your mql5.com profile you can STOP:
