ERROR 500 downloading large number of analysis results #188

My goal is to get a complete listing of analyses for accession=408169.

I was previously using these commands:

wget "https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/portal/api/links/taxon?accession=408169&result=analysis&download=true&subtree=true&offset=0"
wget "https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/portal/api/links/taxon?accession=408169&result=analysis&download=true&subtree=true&offset=100000"
wget "https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/portal/api/links/taxon?accession=408169&result=analysis&download=true&subtree=true&offset=200000"

But I get the error:

Resolving www.ebi.ac.uk (www.ebi.ac.uk)... 193.62.193.80

I'm able to download a small list of accessions by adding limit=10000:

wget "https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/portal/api/links/taxon?accession=408169&result=analysis&download=true&subtree=true&offset=0&limit=10000" -O test

But this fails when I increase the offset:

wget "https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/portal/api/links/taxon?accession=408169&result=analysis&download=true&subtree=true&offset=10000&limit=10000"
