How to fix >> Error code -1 | Port number was not identified. Check if Eikon Desktop or Eikon API...

... Proxy is running.

Related to my question above I read the answer to this similar question which directed to another similar question here. The answer to this again refers to a new question here, which then (would you believe it) provides a link to a fourth question for the solution here. This eventually leads to the original troubleshooting documentation that led me to search for answers here. Can anyone tell me how i can find out how to fix the error mentioned above when there appears to be no error with the API (after implementing all the solutions from the linked to questions).

    Hi @ChrisBaldock ,


    I'd advise updating your Eikon Desktop app (e.g.: to 4.0.55041) and the API (e.g.: to 1.1.8); this setup is the latest one, I tested it and it works. Do let me know if that resolves your issue.
