Python API Error on handshake port 9000

niskrev

After EIKON App update earlier this week I can no longer use the python API. In particular, the error I get is:

Error on handshake port 9000 : ReadTimeout(ReadTimeout())

The app and Excel addon are working fine. I tried restarting the app and the PC but no luck. I also run the Powershell script (CheckEikonDataAPI14.ps1) provided in answers to similar questions. The output is attached. Hope someone will be able to help resolve the problem

installed versions:

Eikon Desktop: 4.0.52005

python libraries:

eikon: 1.1.2

http3: 0.6.7

nest-asynco : 1.0.0

Do you have similar logs ?

Hi,

Could you detail your Eikon version and APPs versions (from Eikon Help About windows) ?

And just to avoid confusion, confirm version of python libs:

• eikon
• httpx
• nest-asynco

jason.ramchandani01

@niskrev What versions of the following are you running:

Eikon Desktop

Eikon Library

Python

Also please see this thread and let us know how you get on.

Eikon Desktop: 4.0.52005

python libraries:

eikon: 1.1.2

http3: 0.6.7 (I dont have httpx installed, in case it's relevant, the version of requests I have is 2.22.0)

nest-asynco : 1.0.0

Thanks!

@jason.ramchandani01jason.ramchandani I reinstalled eikon and now have 1.1.6.post3

installed httpx==0.14.3

nest-asyncio is 1.3.3

python is 3.7.7

cleared the EIKON cache (but kept Keep Apps cache box checked)

The error I get now is

Error on handshake port 9060 : JSONDecodeError('Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)')

The PS script produces an output file which to too big to attach here (991KB). So instead I attach the parts which seem most relevant. short_output.txt

You can try the following commands in PowerShell.

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "http://127.0.0.1:9060/api/v1/data" -Method POST

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "http://127.0.0.1:9000/api/v1/data" -Method POST

Hi,

eikon 1.1.7 is available on pypi.

Not sure that will fix your issue but it'll provide more information in logs and JSONDecodeError is well managed.

Could you update and retry with "ek.set_log_level(1)" in your script ?

Could you check also in Eikon logs the file APIProxy.yyyymmdd.hhmmss.txt ?
(it should be in C:\ProgramData\Thomson Reuters\Eikon Data\Logs\TRD\Eikon.202010dd.hhmmss.pxxxx directory)

This is the content of the log file:

start node
Arg: C:\Program Files (x86)\Thomson Reuters\Eikon\X\Bin\Eikonbox.exe C:\Users\eeu227\AppData\Local\Thomson Reuters\Eikon User\Cache\LibraryCache\Apps\REFINITIVHOLDINGS.EIKON.DATAAPIPROXY\1.1.0.11\index.js -TraceLevel=-1 

I updated to eikon 1.1.7 but still get the same error

pierre.faurel,

Setting ek.set_log_level(1) provided some useful information but I can only see it on the screen, couldn't find it in the logs. The message is basically that the site has been blocked by my organization. Among other things, the message on the screen shows the following, followed by the line "Access Blocked".

2020-10-19 16:29:10,600 P[25128] [MainThread 25132] Port 9060 was retrieved from .portInUse file

I can request access to an URL to be unblocked, but am not sure what it is, is it http://127.0.0.1:9060/api/handshake? Thanks for your help!

This becomes too technical and personal.

If you can see an "Access Blocked", I'll suggest to use a tool like Fiddler, or to check with your IT which access was blocked.

To avoid any exchange of individual data, could you contact the Refinitiv support to send this request and specify to contact dev team.
Support will contact us.
