Hi all,
The TWS on my system is unable to connect to my R session. Here is the
error that I'm getting:
*> tws<-twsConnect()
Error in socketConnection(host = host, port = port, open = "ab",
blocking blocking) :
cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In socketConnection(host = host, port = port, open = "ab", blocking
blocking) :
localhost:7496 cannot be opened*
Here is the session info for the R session:
*R version 2.15.1 (2012-06-22)*

I have checked the "Enable Activex and Socket clients" but it
hasn't
helped. Since I'm running on an Ubuntu machine, I even tried changing the
parameter *blocking *in the command *twsConnect() *to
1. *blocking = FALSE*
2. According to the one mentioned here
http://code.google.com/p/ibrokers/source/detail?r=84&path=/trunk/R/twsConnect.R
but nothing has helped.
Please let me know what I should do.
Thanks.
