MBT Desktop Pro 2.1 Forum

Adding the VC++ distributable as noted here:

I have been able to successfully run the app, login, and view my accounts. I'll have to see what does and does not work from here. COM development or using the new remote API is the goal.

OK it seems I got the API enabled as well.

The entire process was this:

Install .Net 4 (which also installs .Net 2)
Let it restart
Install MBT Desktop 2.1

To run RegAsm.exe, it needs mscoree.dll. This was determined by attempting to run RegAsm.exe and it failed. Checking create log allowed me to see why it failed. So:

http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?mscoree

to get the DLL. Get the zip, and unzip it to the .Net 4 Framework folder. For me, in the path of the bottle itself, this was

/drive_c/windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v4.0.30319

Go to menu "Programs" then "Run Command…"

Select the bottle for this command to run under.

Use this command, taking care to change YOUR_BOTTLE_HERE to the path to your bottle

"YOUR_BOTTLE_HERE/drive_c/windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v4.0.30319/RegAsm.exe" "C:\Program Files\MBTrading\MBT Desktop Pro\RestAPI.dll"

Check "Create log"

Click Run. It may ask to save the log file "newlog" which for me was saved in the .Net 4 Framework folder.

It went through it's process and now says the API is enabled.

To get it to listen to the port, I used the following, no long quoted paths needed. Replace YOUR_LISTENING_PORT with the port you would like to use

netsh http add iplisten ipaddress=0.0.0.0:YOUR_LISTENING_PORT

Then set up the API to use the same port. If you need other restrictions on the interface, here 0.0.0.0, make sure to modify the netsh command accordingly.

Alas the API fails with an unknown error. However it looks to be related to this:

Is there a way to resolve this?
