MODIS Local structure is up-to-date. Using offline information!

I'm trying to download some data, but every time I run my code, I receive the same message:

Local structure is up-to-date. Using offline information!

See code below:

tfs = runGdal(job = "MODIS",
              product = "MOD11A2",
              begin = "2016.01.01", end = "2016.01.15",
              extent = getT)
tfs

I'm unsure why this is. No actual files are presented or downloaded. How do I fix this to actually get data?

Hi, for me is happening somenthing similar but only with some of the dates. Some are downloaded and some not. Why?

So at the end of the day, it ran the day after without changing a thing? Could simply be an issue with availability of data for the date we feed into it I suppose. May be worth checking the records on earthdata to see if your data exists for the given timeframe before trying to download it using the MODIS package.

The data exist in my case, but when trying to download it from MODIS package it doesn't do it

How long is your time series? Maybe there is a limit to the amount of scenes that can be returned in one command?

I am only capable of downloading data from 2018 onwards for MOD11A2, which also doesnt seem right...anything before that it refuses to work.
