Hi I installed quantrocket recently and am trying to set the credentials:
quantrocket ibg credentials 'ibg1' --username 'XXX' --live
but crashes:

Any ideas why? Have tried restarted the gateways in docker but doesn't seem to fix the issue. Note that nothing is displayed in the VNC gateway viewer either (
I have an IBKR Pro account, is there any setting I need to adjust to allow the gateway to start correctly?
Mostly just interested in getting the sec master so I can do some research.
PS: I'm running on arm mac but ibkr gateway seems to work fine when I install and run it locally with same credentials:
