Yes, we've found a problem with our application, where it will fail on some WU for the file H1_0849.4 and H1_848,9. We'll be releasing a new app soon that fixes this.

I'm not so concerned about this bug, because these jobs fail as soon as they start. So they don't waste any significant CPU time on your system.

Cheers,

Good point. We're just about done with testing the new app, so please stand by. We should have this resolved in the next couple of days.
