When I try to input a zip file I get this import error ....

I have down loades a couple of zip files to my computer from this site. To use with NJ of course. When I go to "file" then to "utilites" then to "Import Nijascript" I get this message

" You have custom NinjaScript files on your PC that have programming errors. These errors must be resolved before you can import a NinjaScript Archive file."

Now the two zip files I have, I have uploaded. I am assuming neither of these have "errors" in them. But once again I'm getting that above message when I try to import them in. Could someone with experience try this maybe on their computer and see if it works for them? I really do not know what to do now.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Well I really do not know what I'm doing with all of this importing business. I suppose these would be helpful if I understood them. I think I'm just going to call up NJ and get someone to help me. I really can not explain very well what is happening. And I do not know enough to be helped by anyone trying lol.

The problem isn't with what you are importing, the problem is that you already have an indicator, strategy, or script that has errors. If anything else on your setup has errors, then you can't make any other changes until those are resolved first. Edit any indicator, doesn't matter which one, and press F5, at the bottom of the screen it will tell you which indicator, strategy, or script has the error. Fix it, or delete it if you aren't using it, and you should be able to import the new indicators.

Just go to OwnDocuments -> NínjaTrader (7) -> trace, and open the trace file of today with the text editor. Read the tracefile and it will tell you, which was the offensive indicator.

Start Ninjatrader, then edit the offensive indicator and delete it. Problem should be solved now.

Ok I just went to "downloads" for Ninja Trader 7. I downloaded the very first script the "AaMa" https://nexusfi.com/free_downloads/ninjatrader-7/indicators/. Is their any question in anyones mind that this scrip has errors? I wouldn't think their would be, it wouldn't be their if their where. However I downloaded it went to "Utilites" then to " Import Ninja Script" and right away this message came up
" You have custom NinjaScript files on your PC that have programming errors. These errors must be resolved before you can import a NinjaScript Archive file."

So can anyone explain to me why I get this message, when it's obvious that the script has no errors?

do the following + make a screenshot of the ERROR-messages on the bottom-area + post it here please !

Go to : tools - Edit NinjaScript - indicator
- now open any indicator you like
- now press compile (button or F5)

- now you should get some errors on the bottom of the script.

please make a screenshot + post it .
dont type whats written there - we WANT a screenshot of it !

Also you can do Fat Tails sugestion :

Just go to OwnDocuments -> NínjaTrader (7) -> trace, and open the trace file of today with the text editor.
Post us a screenshot of the last 15 lines of the tracefile.
or copy the lines + post them


thats the next step for finding whats up here in your NT.
without doing this you can get no help - sorry.

Just to let you know,

If the rest of your indicators are clean, no errors, this works.

So please, do what Max says, post it here and I will help you.
