Has anyone else had an issue with version 0.11.1 and above having the miner shutdown after around 3 minutes with the error "T-Rex instance wasn't validated", "Messy shutdown"?

I'm mining MTP and have 2 RTX 2080's running in Windows 7 on the latest 430.86 nvidia drivers.

If I revert back to 0.11.0 I don't have any issues.

The miner tries to connect to *.trex-miner.com:443 to get the list of dev fee pools and then shuts down if failed. Please make sure connections to port 443 of those servers are not blocked by your firewall.

Thank you for the reply!

I tried checking my computer's firewall as you suggested and there are no blocks in place for port 443, or trex-miner.com. I also checked my router and there are no blocks there either.

I reinstalled Windows as I thought maybe there could have been a problem deeper in the machine, but again, after the reinstall, I still have issues with 0.11.1 and up halting with "T-Rex instance wasn't validated".

It's odd because I have 3 other computers running on the same network that have no issues. I even tried giving the machine a new IP address just in case I missed something on the router, but no luck.

I'm somewhat at a loss here  Undecided
