Problems with Framing and Mosaic Wizard

Hi Ken,

Thanks for the update. Is this now in SGP 3.1.0.366? and do I need to download an update? I’m still getting the same failed message but i’m not sure if I need to do something to get this.

Also, it sometimes generates an image of M31 even though that’s not what I’m searching for. ( I did clear the cache as I had an M31 entry in MFW a few months ago)

Ditto, went back to 3.1 but still have the same issue - failed is all I get.

Mine does the same. Any object that fetches an image returns m31. Most requests just give the error message.

Any updates to the situation Ken?

Thanks,

Mikko

Still dead in the water here. I realize it’s Sunday and this isn’t really a life or death situation, but (rightly or wrongly) I really depend on the FMW to set up my imaging. Last night was a bust (not my first!) because off this. Any updates?

I just tried it and it works…servers are back I believe!

See my post above for updates

bilgebay - which revision are you using 3.0 or 3.1?

@Mikko_Viljamaa

In this case, it does not matter as the currently available version of 3.1 and 3.0 use the same service for fetching canvas images. The next 3.1 that I will try to release this evening (CST), will change this.

I tested it on 3.1… it worked momentarily and it’s down again :frowning:

same here, haven’t been able to get it to work for a couple of days. Just tried again and it failed. I’m on the latest beta.

Same for me. just downloaded 3.1 and still not working. Is there any way to have the framing and mosaic wizard offline by downloading a mosaic library?

@Ken
Since both NASA, ESO and many others has complete DSS image, is it possible to have a choice to change the source of it?
Current one is heavily unusable in China xD

OK, thanks Ken. The reason my question was of course that I haven’t been able to get 3.1 work yet.

Not at the moment… Only the image data is the same… unfortunately, the way in which you communicate with servers to get that data is not standard so each source would require a custom implementation. Also, I am not aware of any other source that will allow querying DSS2 data with a FoV greater than 1 degree (aside from the one I have just chosen for 3.1 Aladin/HiPS)

No fix has been released yet.

The DSS2 catalog is quite large and not avaiable for download. If you know what you want to capture, SGPro will cache targets ahead of time and not require a connection to reuse them at a later date.

Changes discussed above are in 3.1.0.371

The SkyView severs are up again since about an hour, so even my 3.03.169 version works OK now. Thanks for all clarifications and work done related to this thread.

Yours,
