Description of problem: retrieving MOL format structures (File/Get MOL) no longer works due to a URL change at NIH Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): jmol-14.2.12-3.2015.01.22.fc23.noarch How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. File/Get MOL 2. accept default 'tylenol', press ENTER Actual results: Script ERROR: unrecognized file format for file http://cactus.nci.nih.gov/chemical/structure/ascorbic%20acid/file?format=sdf&get3d=True <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <html><head> <title>301 Moved Permanently</title> Expected results: correct file retrieval and structure display Additional info:
This was caused by NIH redirecting http to https I think all that needs to be done is to change the URL template accordingly or have the WWW library follow the redirect. I haven't figured out yet where the URL is specified, so I wasn't able to test the above.
Just mentioning that the following redirect can't be too hard (assuming the library jmol uses for http can do TLS): curl, for instance, can be made to do so with the -L option.
http://wiki.jmol.org/index.php/Database_Connection#Connection_of_Jmol_to_databases Looks like an update to Jmol is in order
as a temporary workaround, it's possible to load CACTUS structures by using the explicit load command in the console (File/Console): load "http://cactus.nci.nih.gov/chemical/structure/tylenol/file?format=sdf&get3d=True"
Sorry, the command above doesn't work because it is what jmol actually does now; you have to modify it to use https: load "https://cactus.nci.nih.gov/chemical/structure/tylenol/file?format=sdf&get3d=True"
