{{Quickfixn}} Quick Question

Wed Mar 1 09:42:21 PST 2023

I’ve downloaded QuickFix.net by Quant Edge JSC Version 1.8.0 using NuGet.

Is there a better version that you can recommend?

First: Are you sure you're using QuickFIX/n?  Your call to "setField" with a lower-case "s" implies that you're using something that hasn't been supported in a very long time.

Besides that, I see some other red flags:

Some of your value.setField calls are incorrect, as some of those fields are Header fields, thus must be set like "value.Header.SetField()".

TargetSubId and SenderSubId should not be set manually in code; if you have them set in your config, the app will automatically set them.  PossDup flag is another one that is governed by a config setting (IgnorePossDupResendRequests).  Generally, you shouldn't often be manually setting fields in the Header. 

However, all of this only becomes a factor AFTER the socket connection is set up and one side attempts a FIX logon (have you set up a FileLogFactory?  Do you see anything in the log?).  If you're not even that far, then it's probably a Stunnel config problem.

Hi:

I’m restarting a project to pull trades from ICE using QuickFix 4.4, stunnel and C#.

So far I haven’t been able to get the products to talk to each other and I’m hoping you can help.  I suspect the issue is in my configuration files.

The QuickFix, stunnel and C# programs are running on the same server.

Can you take a quick look at the three files below and let me know if you see any issues.

I should also point out that the “logon” portion of “toAdmin” specifies no encryption with the following command.

value.setField(new EncryptMethod(EncryptMethod.NONE));

value.setField(new PossDupFlag(true));

value.setField(new SenderSubID("0921"));

value.setField(new TargetSubID(" "));

value.setField(new Username("xxxxxxx"));

value.setField(new Password("xxxxxxx"));

value.setField(new StringField(9001, "1"));

value.setField(new StringField(9006, "1"));

value.setField(new StringField(9007, "1"));

value.setField(new StringField(9008, "1"));

value.setField(new StringField(9009, "1"));

value.setField(new StringField(9010, "1"));

value.setField(new StringField(9450, "WebIceInitiator"));

value.setField(new StringField(9451, "Version 1.0"));

value.setField(new StringField(9452, "Ingbretson"));
