Caught exception while Checking Astrometry.NET solve

Platesolve did not succeed even so the Image submitted can be resolved with success:

Here is the result of the solve from this image which I submitted manually this morning.

And here the logfile with the exceptions.

Not really sure what transpired here. Looks like SGP uploaded the image and then we were waiting to get back a Job ID from the astrometry servers and we never did. However looking at the image SGP submitted I do see a successful solve and a valid Job ID. I also did some local testing and things seem like they’re working just fine.

We’re going to log the actual response so we can investigate this more. Hopefully this was a one time thing. Or maybe they were in the middle of deploying changes to their servers? Unfortunately since this is a 3rd party service outside of our control I don’t have a lot of insight to what transpired.

I’d recommend setting up a Local ANSVR for blind solving.
