Question regarding downloading Cluster data #145

ChaoGai72 commented 3 weeks ago

When I tried to run Example_1 in package, it reported wrongs saying that wrong happens in downloading URL with 'urlreadwrite_legacy' I have double checked my account and password in datastore. In addition, I tried my account on another computer, it also reports the same wrong. Also, I can download data with example codes showed on their website so I think it's not a problem about my network as it reported. I have no idea with how to tackle this problem. Thanks in advance!

Dear @ChaoGai72,

first a few questions:

Are you using the latest version of irfu-matlab (what is the status if you run git pull?), and which branch are you on? (master, devel, or some other one?)

If you are running on our master branch, if you change to our latest development branch devel is the problem still there? (That is to say, change branch with $ git checkout devel, and make a pull to be sure its up to date $ git pull).

Which version of Matlab are you using? Some versions of Matlab does not have the new function webread() which is preferable over the old urlread().

Thanks for reply. I was using master branch and it was the latest version. My Matlab version is 2024a.

After switching to latest devel branch, the problem is solved. However, many of the data are empty and then it reports wrong for later data processing. I consider it as a data problem but not the problem of code of Example_1.
