This is what you are getting:

Rithmic Trading | Message from server: Error creating the main object. Error message: os error | 2016-06-29 10:20:42

Without going into details, as a matter of policy we are hesitant to get involved in this. We first want to see if you can be moved to CTS instead of Rithmic. Can you ask Top Step Trader for that. Here are the CTS T4 trading platform service setup instructions:

Although it could be a simple case of a firewall on your computer blocking the connection. The problem is we do not know what the issue is. Only Rithmic would know.

Rithmic is my choice. The problem was in my VPN connection. Thank you!
