The error is telling you it can not find the SocketInitiator method. This error is likely due to one of these reasons:
1) the required library is not on the javaclasspath
2) a mis-match in required java libraries

When you download and install quickfix/j, run the banzai example outside of MATLAB to make sure your system has all of the required java libraries. If it runs correctly, then the problem is in the importing/classpath.txt reference to the required java libraries, which you can fix by importing the libraries from the same directory as the installation of quikcfix/j.

This error occurs when trying to reference a file path on Windows that is not a valid URL. See http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3506051&group_id=176742&atid=878458 for an example.

You can either:
1) Run the commands with banzai.cfg in the current working directory

OR

2) change the MATLAB file to accept inputStreams:
inputStream = java.io.FileInputStream('C:\\MATLAB_CODES\\Automated_Trading\\banzai.cfg');

settings = SessionSettings(inputStream);

I'm working on Windows 7:

is the file offline?
I have a problem with opening the file!
