Minion cannot connect to internet

[FWSWBN]

same for me too.
yesterday works fine, today i get the message with internet connection.

i did not change anything on my computer.

[vsrs_au]

Same problem here. It worked fine when I ran it roughly 10 hours ago, and failed to start just now. Nothing's changed on my PC in the last 10 hours.

[Childeric]

I can confirm I didn't do anything to my PC since yesterday and it is not working anymore. Same issue.

[NordCarbon]

Same problem, Minion unable to connect, and I have tried from two different computers.

[PsionicGamer]

Yep, same issue here. Worked with ethernet cable but i need it to run on wifi and it refuses to do so.

[Dynamite Joe]

same here....

maybe this is the problem -> sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

Same here for "Minion is unable to connect to the internet"

[outcast121]

same issue as well when I start minion, yesterday it was working fine..

[Morbeer]

same for me. i was able to get on and use it yesterday and this morning it wont connect. says unable to connect to the internet. I have followed and verified all the steps in previous comments and nothing works. I tried going to https://api.mmoui.com/v3/ and it says "Working ". Not sure what the issue is but it seems there are a lot of people with the same issues today.

It looks like some root certificate embedded in the ancient JRE used by Minion has expired and now it got trust issues and does not want to talk to the server anymore.

[omegatay]

Same as others. Was working yesterday. Besides Minion everything else seems to connect fine.

Also not working for me, tried all the suggested things from the helppage .. turned firewall and security off, ran as admin, added to my firewall , un/reinstalled both 64 and 32 bit versions.

A new version is out now. You will need to manually run the installer though: https://minion.gg/?download

Weird. Getting the message "Virus Scan Failed" when I attempt to download the new file.
(64bit 3.0.12.exe)

[zenyatharr]

have the same issue with x32 Minion even with admin rights and disabled firewall

BUT

java portable loaded from admin cmd works fine for me

[Dolby]

Might be because the file is so new? Virustotal is showing its fine with all the scanners here: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/...12dd76a4de22e1

That's not a lot of information to go by.

Which operating system and minion (32 bit/64 bit) are you using?
Do you use an antivirus software that could potentially block it?
Did you install it over the previous version or uninstall and reinstall it?
Does it work when you rename the .minion folder in your user folder where the log file is located?

[Cptalbatar]

Installed the new Minion update manually (just uninstall/ install the new one) and everything is back to normal
