[Tilesathome] Data download problem

[Andre Hinrichs]

Hi List,

I newly installed t at h client and it seems to work. At least when data download 
was successfull. But unfortunately this is currently a rare case. What I see 
in the logs is an instant "Internal Server Error" from API.


In fact, I don't trust this message, since it comes too fast and downloading 
data from JOSM workes fine. So I tested the printed URL and it works! I CAN 
download data from API! So, I think, there is something wrong in the t at h 
client which prevents the client from downloading data from API.

Here is an example log:

--- begin log ---

NO "Internal Server Error" and it is quite fast!

What's wrong???


Cheers,

P.S.: Interestingly, just in this minute ROMA seems to be back online :-)
