Opening chart causes ninjatrader to crash

[TishTamble]

I am using ninjatrader version 5.1000.13 and connecting to IB data feed. every time I try and open up a chart of any kind it gives me the "ninjatrader must shut down" error i've already sent in the trace log, but was wondering if anyone was familiar with this problem. nothing came up on google when I searched for it. any help would be greatly appreciated.

sent the e-mail, something else that might be useful to problem solving this is when i am trying to connect to a feed it doesn't actually say that it is connected it continues to say connecting. for both my IB feed and even my market replay feed as well. hopefully this will help you figure out whats going on.

I have version 6.5.1000.13 of ninjatrader already as well as the correct version of TWS 895.3 (which I believe IB just stopped supporting) i went through your connection steps and cleared the DB but it is still doing it everytime I try and open a chart, it will let me open a chart if im not connected to a feed. but if i'm connected to any feed (simulation, market replay, IB) it won't let me open the chart.
