Hi Team,
lean just failed to place an live MOC order to IB on live accounts but was successful with paper trading account.
I have called IB, they didn't see the order being placed on their side for the live account
I checked the log and observed the unusual rapid multiple request for two-factor authentication verification:

I used the same code for execution last month without issue.
Did the PEP8 migration break something?

Actually, in another VM, i run the same code but it connects to a paper trading account instead of live account and that works.
The issue seems to be connectivity between lean/QC and live accounts.

I had a live algo disconnect from Interactive Brokers around 8:00 pm on 4/29/24. I could not find the reason for the error. Thankfully, it did not disconnect today. I'm not sure what the issue was/is.

Dear All,
I have been facing the problem for the last two weeks, the IBAutomater keeps quitting and restarting, and IBGateway did the same thing, keeps quitting and restarting, so I need to do 2FA every few minutes. The log is shown below:

Hey Shaohua Lu!
We've released a fix related for IB live trading using the lean cli. Please update your version to the latest 1.0.192, ‘pip install --upgrade lean’. If the issue persist, please contact support with detailed logs (--verbose) so we can solve the issue ASAP.
