Re: TASS Interface Down?

[Arne Henden <aah@nofs.navy.mil>]

Doug,
   The change is on the server end.  However, you might try
a search with tighter constraints (smaller ra/dec box for
example) and see if that works.  Doug W. is saying that the
database may be too large and is taking too long to complete
its search, getting a timeout before completion.
