Recovering from HTTP error [500 Internal Server Error] - downloading from reanalysis-era5-land

Hello guys,

I’m currently downloading data using the API, which is working for the dataset “derived-era5-land-daily-statistics”.

However, when requesting a variable from the dataset “reanalysis-era5-land”, i receive the error message: “Recovering from HTTP error [500 Internal Server Error], attemps 1 of 500”.

I’m at a loss how one variable and dataset combination is working while the other one is not. I already checked the status of the CDS (https://status.ecmwf.int/), and all seems to work fine. The manual download is also working for the “reanalysis-era5-land” dataset.

The debug file lists the error code 401, “authentication required” (https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/api/retrieve/v1/jobs/cfbd8d77-b054-4d41-be41-dd9b7210c762). I’m confused - if my login credentials were incorrect, I wouldn’t expect any processes to be running.

Any ideas?

Cheers!

Hi,
Please go to the relevant download form and check that you have accepted all the relevant licenses.

Thanks

Hi Michela,

the license check box is ticked and accepted, so that should not be the issue.

I could also download some data manually but not with the API.

Cheers,
Martina
