Still no pictures streaming this evening. The Java console.log file shows the following:

load: class SiteCamLive.class not found
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: java.net.ConnectException: Operation timed out

Sounds like a server problem to me.

Hmmm...this is the first time through all of this that I haven't been able to pick up the live action.

It would be Extremely nice to see in the dark!

BUT DO YOU have extra 'Bucks' to throw that way for such?
You know,IT COULD BE WORSE!!!!
Beings how Trains Magazine and The City of Rochelle,Il.
Are footing the bill.[:)]

Any ideas techies?


I'm not a 'techie' at all;but my word of wisdom,is :PATIENCE.[:D]

I'm not getting the 'live' shots right now,but did earlier today.
The recent image photos are from yesterday.(12/26/04)

Yeah, today I am back to the "Java Applet Loading" and nothing. It cleared up for a while when I quit and relaunched Netscape, but as of last night and this morning, no pictures.

It seems to work one day and not the next.
Sure would be nice to be able to watch trains over the holidays.

You know, it's weird. You can't see the main webcam won't wok, but it still takes pictues. If you look at the recent images, thei will be recent pictures their. The camera is woking, it is just that maybe the internet has poblems. Or one wire works and not the other.

I was having problems and let TRAINS know and now it seems to be working just fine. The comment about the cold is a valid one, nothing works as well when temps are in the single digits (as they are right now out here in IL) as they do when in the fifities or above (as they are forecast to be later next week here).
