[BUG] gse-to-srp error

[sumin5784]

Hello,

I have list of GEO study accession IDs and need to extract SRA meta data. And I got several studies returned error message. Does anyone know what causes this issue?

These are the GSEs causing errors: GSE37005 GSE29714 GSE47217 GSE54365 GSE113801 GSE115106 GSE108333 GSE123527 GSE130894 GSE134964 GSE133600 GSE182269 GSE163140

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: pysradb gse-to-srp GSE37005
