MODIS Aqua download problems

Hi,
I am getting errors trying to download files. This just started happening to all files in my subscriptions (2380, 2381, 2382). Here is an example:

Code: Select all

Yes, it appears from that error message that there was an authentication issue with your requests. However, I see in our logs that you successfully downloaded this file on June 21st...in fact, you did so 9 times...so...is this still an issue for you?

Sean,

Thank you! Sorry for the bandwidth. I'm debugging an automation script and that was my test file. I just tried again this morning the the file and is seems to be working again. Thank you for looking into this.
