Hello
Due to a computer malfunction in the observatory, I have had to reshuffle computers to avoid having
a Win 8 computer in the observatory. I have installed Astro Tortillia many times in the past with no problems, but I have run up on a brick wall this time around. The installation of Astro Tortillia and the Astrometry files plays out just fine, but when the program tries to install the Cygwin stuff, it shows "Connecting" but never down loads the Cygwin stuff. The installation continues but is obviously not complete. I have gone so far as to reformat the drive, but the results are always the same. It seems to me that the URL for the Cygwin stuff is broken or the files have been moved. Any help anyone ???
Regards
Tom

Our mirror server hosting the necessary binaries appears to be misconfigured at the moment. It's a donation service and it's now midsummer, so a fix is not likely to occur soon.
The data is still there, just the web frontend is unavailable.
