Followed the guide to the dot, getting the following error:

xmr1 pointing of course to my pools portion of the config.json (Sample take from the miningcore repo minus minor adjustments such as wallet address etc..)
"pools": [{
"id": "xmr1",

Per caveat mentioned in the main repo bypass (--disable-rpc-login) was implemented as well as username:pw empty for daemon:

"daemons": [
{
"host": "127.0.0.1",
"port": 18081,
"user": null,
"password": null
},
{
"host": "127.0.0.1",
"port": 18082,
"user": null,
"password": "password123",
"category": "wallet"
}
],

Testing performed on windows 2019 (fully patched), 13.3.2 sql, dotnet 5.0.8. Please advise if anybody encountered this error before?! Thank you in advance.
