Can't download Paranal package

[Isa29bella]

Hi,
I tried to download the Paranal location package to run a simulation with HAWKI. The VLT and HAWKI packages downloaded fine, as did the Armazones, ELT and MICADO packages I used previously. However, for the Paranal package, I get the following error: HTTP Error 404: Not Found

Here is the most basic version of what I tried to do:

import scopesim as sim
sim.download_packages(["Paranal"])

Thanks :)

Thanks, something seems to have gone wrong with uploading the package. I'll upload the package later today.

In the meantime, you could perhaps use an older version of the package with:

import scopesim as sim
sim.download_packages(["Paranal"], release="2021-12-01")

The latest Paranal package is uploaded, so you should be able to download the file as normal. Could you please close the issue if everything indeed works as expected?

I do think I've identified the main cause of the problem (see later issue), so hopefully we can prevent this from happening again.

Indeed the download works now, thanks a lot!
However, when I try to use HAWKI (which was my original goal), I now get a new error:
Running:

sim.UserCommands(use_instrument="HAWKI")

Produces:

ParserError: while parsing a block mapping
  in "C:\Uni\Astro\10Semester\ELT\inst_pkgs\HAWKI\HAWKI.yaml", line 1, column 1
expected <block end>, but found '<block sequence start>'
  in "C:\Uni\Astro\10Semester\ELT\inst_pkgs\HAWKI\HAWKI.yaml", line 31, column 2

Should I open a separate issue for that and close this one? As far as I can tell this looks like an unrelated problem...
Sorry to bother you with all of this.

No problem, these things should just work, so thanks for reporting them!

Apparently there was a similar issue with the HAWKI package (bit different), so I've released a new HAWKI package. The VLT package was all right.

Note that what you can also do is clone this repository, and then let ScopeSim search that path. E.g.:

sim.rc.__config__["!SIM.file.local_packages_path"] = "/path/to/irdb/clone"

Nevertheless, we should have done a better job.

Now it works, thank you very much.
