Tried again, and it worked without complaint, so apparently I had hit the hourly limit in some way, while getting messages which made me think it had not connected.

It appears to have failed immediately, on the first time out. I have only a few more than 250 entries, so it should not have failed on the first try.

Neither did I. But it is absolutely repeatable. Any suggestions?

Actual log attached here. For reasons not clear, I was unable to zip it in 7zip.

Zipped log attached. The content is a bit too much for me to appreciate, as I am new to Ancestris. I did not find in the text any reference to "invalid".
Sorry! Wrong log file.

I had missed that. Thank you. With the web services enabled, I now get a message that there was an "Error searching the Internet." And notice that Ancestris will use local info if it exists.

I am registered on geonames.org with a username rather than email as user identity. Is that a problem for Ancestris?
When I go to View, List Places, and it offers to check places names, I get an error saying the user is invalid on geonames.org. That is incorrect, as I am logged into geonames.org with that username, and it works fine.

Thanks,
