Minion not launching after latest Java update?
Hey guys, 2 days ago I got a prompt to update java to the latest version. The next morning when I went to run Minion as I always do before playing ESO nothing happened. Tried it a few more times and still nothing. Then I looked in Task Manager and there were 4 Instances of Minion running, but no windows, no system tray icon, nothing. I figured the java update messed it up so I uninstalled it and installed the previous version that did work. Still nothing.
Today I've tried: 1. Uninstalling and reinstalling Minion. 2. Installing the 32bit version. 3. Tried all compatibility modes and running as admin. 4. Disabling my anti virus and Windows Defender. It still just shows up in Task Manager and nothing else. Here's my log file, hopefully it helps pinpoint the issue. Code:

It seems the server cannot be pinged. This normally is a problem with your proxy settings or a firewall blocking Minion to communicate.
Maybe related to the java update but I'm not sure how exactly. Add Minion to your firewalls and antivirus whitelist and double check it was added. Check your system proxy and disable it if it's activated, or check VPN tunnels and don't use them to try if this solves it. |
Ok, after more troubleshooting I believe I found the problem.
Nothing in my network settings had changed at all. Further, if I turned on a VPN I could get Minion to launch. I went to make an update to this thread earlier and suddenly I was getting Captcha requirements and crap from Cloudflare security which apparently ESOUI and MInion.gg use on their webhosting. So the issue seemed IP related so I tried restarting my router and modem. While explaining to my mom the issue Cloudflare was giving me she said she was having problems on her tablet. So now I know the issue is related to my IP and some weird blacklist I got put on. Talking with my ISP tech support now to fix the issue. |

I have followed all the troubleshooting steps including calling spectrum about my ip address
I have uninstalled and reinstalled minion several times Made sure i was running the newest java by updating Turned off my firewall and antivirus and still all i get is this any help would be awesome |
Ping Status for http://api.mmoui.com/: 403
-> As written above this is related to your IP address and/or firewall/proxy blocking the ping to the minion servers. Or the cloudflare antispam protection of the esoui websites which are blocking you (like written in the post above). Try to restart your modem and get a new IP if you are able to, or try to use a VPN like the other user said, to check if the connection could be established then. |
Welll... i don't think it's my ip address bc it does the same thing on both my laptop and my desktop and they have separate ip addresses...

Both, or all LAN devices got an ip in a range like 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x e.g. but they share the external same IP which will be determined from your ISP by your touter device. The internet only communicates with the external IP and the router will share the data to the internal LAN ips then. |
