Unable to download ObsC2A.txt

Post by Ken Harrison »

I was trying to update the Be Catalogue in Cartes du Ciel.
The download seems to hang at around 30% complete....
Has anyone else tried recently?

Hi Ken,

Attempted an update of the catalog today and it seemed to work okay with no sign of any hangups.

Best Regards

OK problem solved!!
You need to run CDC “As Administrator” to allow the file to be written to the /program files/ directory.

Hi Ken,

No worries in the name spelling :)
Glad you have the problem sorted, I am running version 4.0-3575. I have the Arasbeam folder placed in my Documents and have the main program folder
for Cartes installed in my Downloads folder rather than the program files folder and not running as administrator and all seems to work okay :)
