Futures Data or Servers down??

I was testing a futures algo yesterday and during my session, I started getting an error saying there was no data:

"NoDataAfterDate: No data on or after day=2015-12-31 00:00:00+00:00 for sid=1054201512

There was a runtime error on line 98. "

This issue is still happening today. I have many algos that were working and none are working now, all same error as above. I didn't test with stocks as I don't have any algos with those. Anyone know if the servers are having data issues or what's going on?

Not related but:
Why is there no service status with this site?
And why is there no section for "My Posts" or something like that?
It's almost like they took a website template from a development site lol. As far as I know this is a big business investing millions into user created algo's! Hire some web developers and add more site functionality!

Still not working. Comment if your having issues, let's get some attention with this issue.

Hi Taylor,

This is known bug and we are working on a fix. We believe we have a solution on our staging environment and it is undergoing testing. We're hoping to have it fixed on our production servers soon.

Sorry for the trouble.

Jamie

Awesome!! Thank you for the update!! As I said in the original post, I think it would provide enormous benefit for you guys to have a service status page with general server status as well as status on smaller issues like this as they come up! Thanks again =)

Any update for us Jamie? Been over a week now since Sunday, July 23. =(

Hey guys, we just pushed a fix that should solve this problem for 68/72 futures. The problem may still occur with MG, BD, EI, and MD in certain situations. We should have a follow-up fix for these names in the next couple of days.

Sorry for the trouble and thanks for your patience.

It's working. Thanks man!
