In ‘status’ page under ‘Historical Providers’ it shows a historical provider that does not exist on the gateway as ‘ERROR’ then the correct one below that also in ‘ERROR’ - in the popup it says "The remote service has reported that it will not accept storage requests to ‘the-name-of-my-datasource-history-provider-on-remote-gateway’

It almost seems like there is another history provider fighting with the correct one. Is there a file or something that caches deleted history providers I can delete?
