tws paper error messagge "commodity segment does not exist"

Futures contracts that still get error "commodity segment does not exist" when paper trading:
BRR @CMECRYPTO (Bitcoin CME)
DAX @DTB (Dax EUREX)
 
I just executed a few various futures and got them all filled. Looks like we are back in business.
You are happy guy.
I am at IBCE and I still receive the message "Order rejected - reason:Commodity segment does not exist" when paper trading. What IB subsidiary are you at?

Just tested BRR @CMECRYPTO (Bitcoin CME) and DAX @DTB (Dax EUREX) on paper account for you. It is accepting orders normally...

Really? Thank you for testing it. I'm on IBCE, maybe this is the problem?

I am on IB Ireland and I am back on the list of those who have this problem.
Got the error message today when trying to buy the Mini DAX future.
(I did not test any other futures.)

I am on IB Ireland as well.

Just to test it for you, I have placed one buy and one sell orders for Mini Dax Futures just now in the paper account and they were accepted, no issues.

Are you still having this PITA problem?

Sorry, what is PITA? Anyway, I don't have any other problems (yet).

Tested again in paper account just now and they are all accepting orders on my side - DAX future (Eurex), ES (Globex), and CL (Nymex).

You have to keep insisting with IB...
