NINA version 1.10 HF1, Framing images not loading from HIPS 2 FITS SKY Survey (bad gateway error)

[AL]

Hi, in the last few days I have been not been able to access the HIPS 2 FITS SKY Survey images on the Framing Tab in Nina.
The error message is ‘The remote server returned an error: (502) Bad Gateway’. From what I have found this is characteristic
of an error with the source data provider’s outgoing information.

Prior to that I was able to rapidly load up the images when selecting objects. This problem has occurred on all targets the last couple of days.

I have been able to obtain images from the NASA Sky Survey.

Wondering if anyone else is experiencing this error with HIPS 2 or if something changed/or needs to be changed on my settings.
I continue to run version 1.10 HF1 because when I upgraded to HF2 my Altair Camera became inoperable; those of us with Altair cameras are awaiting a data update from Altair to fix this issue. I would like to upgrade to HF2 also because I am having some plate solving issues with ASTAP that others have reported is fixed with HF2.

Thank you

AL

I also have this issue. I have 1.10 HF2. It worked once or twice before it began to have ‘bad gateway error’. Given the error message, I suspect the url may have changed and need to be updated in NINA.

The upcoming 1.10 HF3 release has entered the Beta cycle. It will fall back to a backup HIPS2 server if the primary one is down, as it seems to be. You can download the beta from the NINA website or set Auto-Update Source to Beta under Options > General and look for the update notice in the upper right of the NINA window.

Thanks Dale. I am reluctant to try newer versions of NINA until I am certain Altair has provided the software kits to maintain connectivity of their cameras. I had the earlier issue of losing my connection to the 26C Altair upon upgrading to HF2 so I uninstalled and am using HF1.
