nova.astrometry.net not working with worldwidetelescope.org - doesn't move to coordinates

[Craig Richaredson]

Dustin (or anyone who knows;)

I've had this problem for a couple months .. when I click "view in worldwide telescope" it opens the site then I click OK and it doesn't do anything? It used to go to the coordinates and overlay my image.

here's my solve and the link

That's odd, in Firefox (on Mac) your link works.

It also works for me in Chrome (Mac).

cheers,

I had the same problem on 5/31 before I started getting the service unavailable error.  I'm running Windows 10 version 21H2 and Chrome v 102.0.5005.63.   WWT launches, but just does not pan to the uploaded image. It looks like the image is not transferred to the WWT.

Hi,

Okay, so on Safari (Mac), if I click the WWT link in the OP's message, it does nothing.  If I go to the nova.astrometry.net status page and click the "view in WWT" link, it *does* work.

This is: this works

http://www.worldwidetelescope.org/wwtweb/ShowImage.aspx?reverseparity=False&scale=0.679126&name=1.jpg&imageurl=https://nova.astrometry.net/image/13970278&credits=Astrometry.net+User+(All+Rights+Reserved)&creditsUrl=&ra=294.343633&dec=22.417394&x=1122.3&y=370.6&rotation=9.40&thumb=https://nova.astrometry.net/image/13970280

and it ends up at this URL.  Copy-pasting that URL to another browser tab, or another browser, also still works.

http://worldwidetelescope.org/webclient/?wtml=http%3A%2F%2Fwwtcoreapp-data-app.azurewebsites.net%3A80%2Fwwtweb%2FShowImage.aspx%3Freverseparity%3DFalse%26scale%3D0.679126%26name%3D1.jpg%26imageurl%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fnova.astrometry.net%2Fimage%2F13970278%26credits%3DAstrometry.net%2BUser%2B(All%2BRights%2BReserved)%26creditsUrl%3D%26ra%3D294.343633%26dec%3D22.417394%26x%3D1122.3%26y%3D370.6%26rotation%3D9.40%26thumb%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fnova.astrometry.net%2Fimage%2F13970280%26wtml%3Dtrue

However, the OP's link does nothing:

https://worldwidetelescope.org/webclient/?wtml=http%3A%2F%2Fwwtcoreapp-data-app.azurewebsites.net%3A80%2Fwwtweb%2FShowImage.aspx%3Freverseparity%3DFalse%26scale%3D0.679126%26name%3D1.jpg%26imageurl%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fnova.astrometry.net%2Fimage%2F13970278%26credits%3DAstrometry.net%2BUser%2B(All%2BRights%2BReserved)%26creditsUrl%3D%26ra%3D294.343633%26dec%3D22.417394%26x%3D1122.3%26y%3D370.6%26rotation%3D9.40%26thumb%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fnova.astrometry.net%2Fimage%2F13970280%26wtml%3Dtrue

.... and they only differ in "http" vs "https"!

Hmmmm, now I am also finding that posting the https link into Firefox does *not* work, while the http link *does* work.

I would suggest reporting this to the WWT folks.  Nothing Astrometry.net can do about *this*!

cheers,

dustin

Ahhh, I see what is happening.  Looking in the browser's developer tools, it looks like an http vs https CORS error.
