Is the photo download feature working ?

Bat 21 · January 23, 2009, 03:24:16 PM

Good to have the network traffic back ... and thanks to the support chaps for sorting it.

Not sure if it is linked but I notice that today I am not downloading any pics for aircraft that must be pretty common on airliners.net

The only pics that display are one already on my hard drive - any "Downloading Photo" attempt comes back with a "Photo not available" message - anyone else seeing this ?

Cheers Bat 21

Hello, I'm having the same problem. If you double click "No photo available" it takes you to the picture it should have downloaded on airliners net. Also it does not appear to be updating any aircraft info for first contacts.

Hi All,

Have same problem here, only with new aircraft with no details present, left clicking in Reg space usually brings up photo and aircraft details, tried at least 15-20 last night and today. Shows "downloading photo" and then "photo not available".

Hopefully connected to server problems and will right itself over coming days.

Cheers

Phil

We had a problem with the server (related to the current migration) which has been corrected 1 hour ago. All should be working at 100% now.

Afraid it looks like it's gone again

not uploading any photo's of planes not already on the pc.

Ok, could be a problem related to the server migration, Pls stby for this one as we will have a look at it today.

Thanks support

If it helps it does look as though the download is "nearly working" - clicking on the photo not available message does take you to the correct aircraft on airliners.net

Thanks again for your swift response & efforts

I click on the message, and nothing happens.

Will this tie in with the auto populate function too as it doesnt seem to be working correctly either?

Confirmed - autopopulate is not working at the moment. I'm using GAS Populate instead at the moment to populate all my new aircraft this week.
