VPhot and TA are up!

The TransformApplier application in VPhot was disabled by some of the changes with the website changes.

I believe these are repaired and TA is operational again.

Trust, but verify!
If you have some AEFF files that were transformed 10 days ago, redo them with current system and verify that you get the same answer.
You should. If not, tell me!

VPHOT and TA are not working

1. TA accepts the TS file, but after clicking the Transform button the result boxes stay empty. Last successful TA was on 7/8/2024.

2. First day (7/16/2024) for me that VPHOT upload is not working. The Quick Upload accepts and uploads the FITS file, but the file never appears in the images.

3. The Upload Wizard accepts and uploads the FITS file. After getting to the next page in the wizard, this server error page appears:

Server Error in '/app' Application.

PS.

The preview in the forum message editor is showing an error. Luckily, the back button took me back with the message intact.

TA is OK

TA is now working, I got one of my previous transformation file identical to current system. I managed to upload my new observations. :)

The good thing for the wait was that I got also my Excel TA calculation tested.

TA working

Yes can confirm TA is working (thanks George/team) but sadly VPhot is not uploading files correctly.

Appears to work but files do not then appear in list.
