Summary Unable to connect to Asta Powerproject's cloud-based licensing server when using a proxy server.
Description A customer that was using a proxy server to filter their internet traffic reported that they were unable to connect to Asta Powerproject's cloud-based licensing server and were therefore unable to use Asta Powerproject.
Resolution Asta Powerproject's cloud-based licensing mechanism was not picking up the customer's default 'current user' proxy settings from the registry. The licensing mechanism has been revised so that it now copes with the use of a proxy server.

Summary 'SOT' error appears when attempting to check out a particular Asta Vision programme using the Asta Powerproject client.
Description A customer reported that when they attempted to check out a particular Asta Vision programme using the Asta Powerproject client, an 'SOT' error appeared and the check out failed; it was possible to check out the programme using the Asta Vision web app.
Resolution The check out mechanism in the Asta Powerproject client was not able to cope with an issue with one of the programme baselines. The check out mechanism has been improved so that this is no longer an issue.
