Hi, When I click "Get the dataset", it simply returns "An error occourred, try again later"

Hope someone can help me get access to this data.

Hi Joachim,

sometimes the archive was regenerated and therefore unavailable during those periods. I changed this behaviour, shouldn't happen again.

Thanks for the report.

Hi Carmine,

I have tried the process with Google Chrome, Internet Explorer and Firefox. Still get an error. The authentication process appears to work, but when I press the download file from the email, and I am redirected to "https://data.houseoffinance.se/otherDB/download?folder=famaFrench&file=famaFrench.zip" it fails for all the browsers.

Best regards, Joachim
