Connection refused when connecting to IBKR using IB Gateway Container

[azenakhi]

Hello,

I tried to launch a sample to connect to IBKR using IB Gateway Container but I receive this error :

API connection failed: TimeoutError()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python39\lib\asyncio\tasks.py", line 688, in _wrap_awaitable
return (yield from awaitable.await())
asyncio.exceptions.CancelledError

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python39\lib\asyncio\tasks.py", line 490, in wait_for
return fut.result()
asyncio.exceptions.CancelledError

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
