Hi. I have the same problem with my SGP. Frame and Mosaik wizard don´t work and ends with an error. Do everyone have an idea when will it work again?
Greetings from Germany

Agree, is there a way to bring an image in and use it with the FMW? Some manual workaround would be great. Once it has the image it’s just using that in the cache and or saved with the sequence file. My old targets still have theirs and I cleared the cache in an attempt to get it working again. I can still do a search on the NASA site and pull images that look identical to what SGP is using, they can be saved as FITS file from there, just need a way to bring that into the FMW. Thought suggestions?
Not sure I would agree. I tried this on M31 using 2.6.0.25 and got the same error message, then copied the URLs from the SGP log and tried them in my browser, the two skyview URLs worked, the dss URL didn’t.
There may be some change in how the image download works but it looks as if it will be down to SGP to fix it, at least for the skyview calls.
It’s one of the problems with using third party functionality, you have no control over it and when things change you lose functionality.
Yeah that makes sense. Hopefully a solution can be found soon.
Anyone know if there is a way to bring an image into the FMW manually to to the framing? I can get FITS images from the skyview site just have not figured out how to use the FMW with a manual image.
See if this works for you.

Ok, I registered with DSO Browser and looked up M3, copied and pasted the coordinates into SGP, and got the same error.

I have the same problem. I tried the DSO-browser web address and that failed also.
What is SGP developers take on fixing this?
starting to think they must be on summer vacation, what with 3 threads on the topic and no response for days… that’s not normal for SGP.
I’m lucky I have a large cache of images to go back on a couple computers.
Since SGP only needs the coordinatea and angle I am wondering what alternate ways we can populate some targets.
Using sky safari you can find the ra/dec of a location. However the rotational angle is different than what sgp uses so unless its a fixed offset… Im going to test some images.
I guess the same rotational issue will be for any of the other online sky charts?
Let me know if anyone has figured out an alternative way.
You guys are correct, my fetch did fail this time as well. Not sure why maybe they were in my cache. I tried one that I know I never imaged and sure enough it failed.
Sorry about steering everyone wrong on what I though was a workaround,

Same to me.
I’ve checked logs
it says cannot establish SSL/TLS connection.
but I can visit the url in my browser and the CA certificate has no problem in chrome
I tried to send an e-mail and got the auto response saying that they dont respond to software issues by the e-mail address and to post of the forum 
So an alternative while the framing wizard is down, I was looking at using something like Blackwater Skies to help frame. But of course the rotational angle does not match. I did some image comparisons and it looked like if I add around 162 to the blackwater rotation angle I get something similar to SGPs. If someone can try this if it makes any sense to confirm 
Another failure here also. V3.0.2.91 on Win7
Also tried Astrobin, but not been able to get this to work either - but that be a malformed/wrong URL as opposed to an issue with SGP…
This issue has been resolved. I will release a patched SGPro this evening (U.S. Central time). ~6 hrs from now. The issue appears to be from an upgrade on the SkyView side where security protocols underwent an upgrade to TLS 1.2 (maybe new servers… they seem faster).

Awesome thanks Ken!
Thanks…how do I implement it?
