Annnnd...scrubbed. There was a problem with the engine bleed system, which cools the engine prior to launch. Next launch window is on Friday, 2 September.

And, scrubbed again. This time, the culprit was a hydrogen leak, and the engineers could stop the leak sufficiently to fuel the rocket. Next launch window is Monday, 1712 EDT (2212 GMT). There is also a very brief (24-minute) launch window on Tuesday evening.

So...the latest update from the other day:
Fueling test now moved to 21 September (backed up four days from 17 September), meaning the next launch window opens on Tuesday, 27 September. Backup for that day is 2 October.
