Sonarr version (exact version): 2.0.0.5169
Mono version (if Sonarr is not running on Windows): 5.10.0.179

OS: Gentoo

I am having difficulty connecting to a tracker through Sonarr. It gives back the error above and I’ve tried the master version as well as latest develop version. This was with a clean install too, no previous configs.
I even reinstalled mono to be safe. This is also on a machine where I do not have root access, only standard user access.

EDIT: seems to be tracker related. It is down at the moment

I was thinking that it might be my mono version being too new as I’ve seen some people downgrade to 5.9 due to issues

I’m having this exact same problem and my sonarr / mono haven’t changed in a while.
