“Authorization failure” using Stella in Chrome

We’ve been seeing the above error when trying to access Stella Search using the latest version of Chrome. This was also briefly an issue in other browsers, but providers seem to have fixed the problem now if you update to the latest versions..

Thankfully, the error is straightforward to sort out – download the latest version of Java and install it. This should get Stella (and indeed, lots of other sites that require Java) back up and running.
