I successfully downloaded MSSAGB-1 from 2011-09-10 06:00:00 to 2011-09-10
18:00:00 with KMZ/Google Earth selected, nothing wrong with that. You can
export data from last year just fine.
But seems like there's another bug. If you change the date/time selection
on top, and then click Export on the bottom (without clicking Search at
the top), it will use the time range that was selected when you last
clicked Search. The export is done with the Start/End dates shown above
the format selector, and they only change when you click Search.
If there is no data found in the searched time range (it says Positions
stored: 0), the Export button will fail with the given error message.
I'll fix it to give a more meaningful error message if there is no data to
be exported. I should also improve the usability of the user interface,
apparently it can be a bit confusing. Changing the dates/times on top
should probably immediately be applied and a new search done for the
positions to export.
