The 1.3.0 version isn't released yet, you're using an RC release.

I have an idea, yes. But I don't know if it's really the reason:
My guess is that your firewall is blocking REPORT requests (many
firewalls/proxies do that unfortunately). If you try the official 1.2.6
release, you will get an error too, but that error will tell you
something like "REPORT request failed on '/....'".

So first, please try the 1.2.6 release. If you get that error I
mentioned, then you must either adjust your firewall, or use https
instead of http.
