Using Gaia-on-tap on Windows
Closed this issue · 3 comments
Using the code for the first two examples given has resulted in this error message:

The examples are being run in Python 3.5.2 |Anaconda 4.2.0 (64-bit)| using Spyder (downloaded as part of the Anaconda package) with Windows 7 Home Premium. The version of Astropy is 1.2.1 (also downloaded as part of the Anaconda package).
The code used is cut-and-pasted from the given examples:
import astropy.coordinates as coord
from gaia.tap import cone_search
cluster = coord.SkyCoord.from_name("M67")
cluster_candidates = cone_search(cluster.ra.deg, cluster.dec.deg, 1.0)
The same code run on a Mac does not return the same error message.
I get the exact same error when trying to run the example query (cone_search) or any query of my own using gaia.tap.query(...). I am running on Fedora 25, python 3.5.2, astropy 1.2.1.
@Jarmstrong93, which Python version do you have in the Mac machine?
The Mac was not my machine but belonged to another researcher I met when introduced to Gaia-on-tap, I'm afraid I can't remember which version he had. On my Windows machine I have python 3.5.2 and astropy 1.2.1 also.
