Error 500 is a web server error on the MPC side.
I just try now and it work, so it was probably a temporary problem with the web server.
Can you try again and confirm if it work?

I am able to reproduce this issue on Debian 9. It looks all attempts to connect with TLS/SSL are affected, like e.g. connecting to https://minorplanetcenter.net//iau/MPCORB/CometEls.txt.
It seems the reason is the problem with establishing TLS connection with Qt 5 and OpenSSL 1.1, see https://forum.qt.io/topic/90788/error-creating-ssl-context-when-running-from-inside-qt-creator-on-ubuntu-18-04.

If you get a message with "Error: 500" as the original issue here this is because of temporary problem with the MPC server. But I just try now and it work.

If you get error about OpenSSL1.1 as the messages you linked this is because you use a old version of the program. OpenSSL 1.1 is supported by Skychart since April 2017.

Indeed, v4.0 was affected but v4.2.1 is fine.

Oh yes 4.0 was released in March 2017 and not include this fix.
As I always use the last beta version I have the impression it was fixed for a longer time.

Joan, as you reported to use the version 4.0, please install the last 4.2.1 and retry.
