There is an update merged for auto-scheduler, so if you run the latest version and you have any trouble, please report them either here or in issues in the project repository in order to be fixed.
For future reference, we managed to find the root cause, there is an introduced check on the timestamp when a frame is SiDS submitted, if the timestamp is in the future (usually due to syncing or timezone issues), the request fails with 400 code.
Would this fix the sudden on/offline that’s been happening to my station since the updates seem to be taking place? I try to pride myself on keeping my Groundstation online but it seems to register every time the network goes on and offline making it look like it’s my end. Does this affect the usage of my groundstation by ‘rating’ in any way?
A big thank you to you and the team for steering the ship through rough waters over the last couple of days. Handling unexpected “big storms” is never a walk in the park, but it’s wonderful to see everything back on track.
Thanks for your tireless efforts behind the scenes to keep our orbital window open and stable!
