XWeather and XoapWeather not working?

[dalanik]

Just noticed that both weather plugins stopped working for me... They display none or partial information for the past 2 days... Has anyone else had problems with these?

cheers,
D.

I use Xoap V1.2 on two computers. My music server's last update was at 2:00am this morning...all info seemed to come through that I display. My other computer, I just started xlobby, so it's last update was this morning at 5:00am, again all information that I display came in.

What have you noticed missing? Maybe I'm not using the same variables, so the reasone I'm not seeing your problem.

xweather wasn't working yesterday. I would get the High and Low temp for the day, that's it, not even the city name. Didn't look this morning before I headed into work.

XWeather for (US) Philadelphia, PA and Johns Island, SC have been totally solid since Stephen's last update.

are you talking forecast working or current information?
I cannot display the city the forecast is for (using either %city% or %name%) or the Current: Temp, Humidity, Wind, Feels like, Dewpoint, Barometer, Visibiltiy, sunrise or sunset. All these were working prior to yesterday. The forecast is fine with the exception of no City name again.

Everything is nominal, maps too. Try another location to test? Maybe one of mine above.

My one computer received information as of 4:00pm, all is working fine...forcast for 4 days, icons, current information (including all the minor stuff like sunrise/sunset). I haven't checked the music server again, but I suspect, bringing that out of sleep, I will not see any updates unless I restart xlobby.

[cmhardwick]

no change, in either the default or HTCC skin (modified to use XWeather), "free" xlobby or Pre-release (using same xweather DLL in both cases (modified to use XWeather). I added Philly, same result. no current information other than High/low. Basically, it looks like nothing in format of plugin>xweather>current>%variable% is working. if it's plugin>xweather>current>1>%variable% it's fine, if that variable is available of course.

Weird. Reinstall plugin?

[wesblack]

The XWeather plugin has been updated from version 2.2 to 2.3 . The data formatting structure was changed and Steven had to modify the code to fix it. The plugin can be updated thru xLobby under F2, Download. Click on download list then click on XWeather to load the new version, next click Install Updates Now. Xlobby will install the new update and then close and relaunch.

Thanks Wes.

[cmhardwick]

it works, but the "sunset" variable has a BUNCH of extraneous data, not just the sunset time. I can keep it from showing by making my field narrower, but I still have ... at the end since there is more there. Visibility also has lots of extra data.

Xweather seems OK now after the update... but i'm not getting all locations from XoapWeather... who is the author of this one?

I think Atlas is in charge of it now... however its open source so if u need to do a personal mod u can always give it a stab... I was under great temptation to mod it a little, when i needed to get plugins output into xpert for use in euroweather, cause i noticed after going trough source that it would require only one character chance to make it work... but incase i would want to distribute euroweather, i didnt like the idea of stepping toes of the author, by distributing modded version of xoap with it, so i end up developing concept of "variable smuggling" within xPerT
