Local Time or UT in Table

Hi Sander:

The Table heading says the times are Local Times.  Aren't they really UT?

Brad Timerson

PS...   Your site has come a long ways in just a short time.  Great work!!!

Re: Local Time or UT in Table
Hi Brad,

the Local Time gets calculated based on UT and the offset you entered. Provided you entered the right offset that should yield local time. The table with all occultations shows UT as indicated by the column heading and the 'Z' in the time string.

Let me know if that doesn't explain things :)

Thanks for the compliment! Once all the data is in a database there are few limitations to what can be done with it. I just need to get some occultation action of my own!

Re: Local Time or UT in Table

Hi Sander...  OK, I just saw the Offset box.  I put -5 in the box for Eastern Standard Time.  Latitude 43 N, Longitude 77.1 W.  Everything else zero.  I get the following error message....

Runtime Error

Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <customErrors mode="Off"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>

Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>

Re: Local Time or UT in Table
Thanks Brad for this problem report. It was caused by a stupid programming mistake that I didn't catch because I didn't actually press 'search' after deploying. I figured the automatic search covered that path but it did not. Sorry!

At the same time I tried out searching for 0 distance events. That sort of works but gives undesirable results so I have disabled it for now. I'll work out a way to re-enable that again soon.
