Error while downloading RGI file from glims website #1799
Description
Hi, since yesterday a new bug appeared:
import oggm
rgi_version = "60"
region = "06"
shp_path = oggm.utils.get_rgi_region_file(region, version=rgi_version)which results in an error
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/gossarda/Documents/glacio/MassBalanceMachine/bug_download.py", line 5, in <module>
shp_path = oggm.utils.get_rgi_region_file(region, version=rgi_version)

RuntimeError: Could not download RGI file: http://www.glims.org/RGI/rgi60_files/00_rgi60.zip
It looks like the whole rgi60_files folder is no longer accessible on GLIMS website. I don't know if it's a temporary bug that will eventually be fixed on GLIMS website in the coming days or if the paths in the OGGM code should be updated.
I'm working with OGGM 1.6.2.
Do you have an idea of the timeline for a bugfix?
Thanks!
