Hi,

When I try to upload my data file I get this error:

The website encountered an unexpected error. Please try again later.

I suspect it is something in the data file header or records that it does not like, but there is no indication of what it is.

Resolved (Photometry data file upload failed)

I found the problem.  There was a typing error in the User code.  Fixed that and the data then uploaded.

Well done

Well done, Craig. Glad you found the error. When this happens to me, it is usually my system's filters. We have an "Rc" instead of the "R" that the AAVSO expects.  I edit that, and all is well.
