Hi.
I am trying to reinstall the Lightning Detector v. 4.1 but are running into problems, no data is displayed on the web-page, just the header and the files buttons.
Monitor status shows:

Sorry for the delay in replying. I read your message on my phone and then marked it as unread to come back to on my PC. I then slept and forgot what I’d done!

It’s possible that upgrades to the operating system or python or the MQTT packages have changed something significant. I do remember having a problem with connack_string() before but if I did then it would have been fixed.

I need to get back to this project…summer is drawing near and hopefully we’ll get some lightning nearby this year!

Thanks, I see there is another new thread about the same: Problems setting up a Mikroe Pi 3 Click Shield and AS3935 thunder Click

I will monitor that one.
