getfile not working

[alaroy]

When I try to download data with the getfile api it fails with an error of the form

$ wget --no-use-server-timestamps --read-timeout=10 -O /tmp/A2019219181000.L1A_LAC.bz2 https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi/getfile/A2019219181000.L1A_LAC.bz2

I'm having the same problem from several servers.

We still have a team out trying to do field validations, so if you could please investigate and get this resolved quickly it would be much appreciated.

Brock,

It looks like the download issue you're seeing is affecting everything not just the ancillary data.

On a whim I checked our other subscriptions (which are all for L2 data). It looks like we stopped downloading any new data between 15:00 and 17:00 UTC yesterday (8/8).

They are two different issues. Brock was trying to retrieve files that didn't exist. The L1A files you need are on the server but getfile cannot retrieve them from the hosts.
We are working on a resolution.

The problem affecting the file servers has been resolved.
