meteohub.de

Since the license acceptance dialog was added a few revisions back, it seems that I am forced to accept it once per day when I log in for the first time. This happens regardless of if Meteohub has just been updated to a new version (where the license page is expected), or if I have already accepted the license for that version (where I think it should send me directly to the System Info page.)

Has anyone else had this problem, or is it a mysterious quirk in my browser (Firefox 3.0.1) that I need to hunt down? I am accessing the NSLU2 locally behind a NAT firewall with a static IP address (192.168.*)

That leads me to a related question: How does Meteohub identify that you have accepted the license agreement? Does it set a cookie on the remote computer, or does it set a flag in its own file system?

Hi I use IE7 and Firefox v2. I only have to accept the license once for meteohub and once for WDL.

I sometimes have to do it again on updates but not allways.
Hope this helps.

I also only recall needing to accept the MH and WDL licences after install of an update.

I was a little surprised that it was necessary to re-accept for each incremental updates, but it's not a problem.

Using Firefox 2.

coming updates will not go through this, once you have done. Sorry for any inconvenience on this.

There are two licenses to accept:
one for Meteohub
one for WD-Live (WD-Live is only enforced when you go the the "WD-Live" page)

Updates from 2.6f on will not ask again.

Everytime the IP of Meteohub changes, a new license acceptance dialog will be requested. This should only happen, when you sell or relocate your rig. Normally you will keep your IP for a long time. License acceptance is logged on the Meteohub file system, no cookies.

When your experience differs from the rules above, there might be a problem. If so please send a screen dump of your "system information" page.

Latest updates appear to have fixed whatever my problem was and I'm no longer regularly asked to accept the license.

Thanks!
