GeoNames Forum

i receive the following message every few lookups and i dont know why or how to solve it.

"detail": "{'value': 12, 'message': 'net/geonames/lucene/PostalCodeSearchResult'}

the call i am using is http://api.geonames.org/postalCodeLookupJSON?postalcode=01545&country=us&username=<my username here>

the zip code doesnt matter (i've tried many). im getting this error randomly. i'd say the call works 60 ish percent of the time and fails 40% of the time with the message above. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks a lot. There was an issue on one of the servers which needed a restart.

Best Regards

Marc
