I was trying to run SGP couple of nights ago. It seems to respond well in all parts, except Plate Solving. Gets stuck on step 2. Gives me a failure notice. Now, I don't have the Internet connection at the observatory site and have to rely solely on PlateSolve2 without any second option like Astrometry.net. I would like someone to look at my log (the relevant quote is below), see if I miss anything obvious.
Thank you,
Ian
