[josm-dev] Re lease 1180 - download problem

[Tony Grimley]

Dirk - many thanks for your response. Please tell me how to prepare the full log text so I can send it to you.  I am afraid the reference to a proxy server is also outside my somewhat limited knowledge of computers so please tell me how I can check this on my machine.
I have JOSM loaded on a laptop and, using the same username and password as used for uploading data to OSM as on  my desktop computer, I can download from JOSM OK. I have checked that the same username and password is set for JOSM on the desktop as on the laptop and I can upload data to OSM and edit with Potlatch from  the desktop without any problems - I added some data yesterday.
If it helps to identify the problem, both machines are linked to a home network. My desktop receives the broadband via a cable connection from the router and the laptop via the home network.
Regards
Tony Grimley

  Please send a full log text to allow us to help you.

  But a raw guess is, that you have no or wrong username and password or 
  maybe a proxy server is inbetween.

  Code 403 is a status code telling about missing permissions.
