Rejected share: invalid result

I have just freshly installed https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/releases/download/v2.14.1/xmrig-2.14.1-xenial-x64.tar.gz on my Ubuntu host, updated the config and started the xmring-notls.

Q 1: should I use xmring or xmring-notls?

Now I am getting the following error messages:

[2019-05-30 09:07:48] **rejected** (0/83) diff **1583** "Rejected share: invalid result" **(59 ms)**```

Q 2: How can I get my shares accepted?

TIA

Could you share your miner configuration (omitting your mining address).

Change algorithm to “cryptonight/2”.

“algo”: “cryptonight/2”,
