forecast: undefined

Post by Automan »

Hi, I have just been setting up a NSLU2 (266 MHz) connected by USB to a Davis Pro2.

In the past I have been using a PC ruuning Weather Display and WD-Live.

I got the WD-Live to work okay but for some reason the forecast description wfrom the Davis says "forecast: undefined" but for the most part it reads as one would expect e.g. "Increasing clouds with little temperature change".

Via the AJAX code on my old WD website it never says this.

Is this a WD-Live issue, A Meteohub issue or have I done something wrong?

Web page at present is at http://www.morlocks.co.uk/weather/ should you wish to see the error.

An Update,
Reported this issue to the writers of WD-Live but it would seem the error is with Meteohub.

What is happening is no data is being uploaded into clientrawextra.txt file data you can see that value 531 (the forecast data) is blank.

However, the forecast information is being output to the Current Weather Description in clientdraw.txt value 049

You can check with the tool at http://www.tnetweather.com/wd-parser.ph ... mit=Submit

And thus I had my WDLive set to alternate between current weather and forecast and that is why it kept saying Forecast: undefined because it is!

I have just started using WDL and am having the same problem. I'm trying to display an icon to represent the current conditions but always the icon and description associated with the forecast instead.

It appears that the problem is that the "forecast" is being sent to WDL in the current conditions field. Hopefully an easy fix?
