Problem accessing subscription data

Hi,

Since yesterday our scripts are failing to connect when we try to use the file_search.cgi function to get a list of files in our subscription. We get back ERROR 403: Forbidden.

(Here is an example of the wget command from the script)
wget --no-check-certificate --post-data="subID=244&results_as_file=1" -O - https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/search/file_search.cgi>c:\seadas\aqua\subfiles.tmp

I can access the subscriptions on the website.

Thanks for your help!

Jeff

You had an old URL to the file_search utility.

Use wget --no-check-certificate --post-data="subID=244&results_as_file=1" -O - https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/api/file_search > c:\seadas\aqua\subfiles.tmp
