Why do I get an error while running the SpectroscopyConvolveResolutionKernel.py script in HIPE?

There are two, well-known sources of potential problems:

First, check that you are using the secure "https" protocol and not "http". If you have the latter, the link will fail.

Second, it is possible that the script is searching to the wrong directory because, unfortunately there were some changes to the URL where the on-line kernels were kept that were not within the control of the Herschel Science Centre. In order to fix the directory error, you have to edit the SpectroscopyConvolveResolutionKernel.py script and change this line:

kernelRoot = '
http://www.astro.princeton.edu/~ganiano/Kernels/Ker_2012_May/Kernels_fits_Files/Hi_Resolution/
'

With this line:

kernelRoot = '
https://www.astro.princeton.edu/~ganiano/Kernels/Ker_2012/Kernels_fits_Files/Hi_Resolution/
'

This should resolve both issues.
