Hi guys. After two days still cant fine where to grab. Upload any data to my website from GW1000 doesnt work. Much appriciated for any advise. Hier is my site www.lentfoehrden-wetter.de

It took some time to find the uploaded file http://www.lentfoehrden-wetter.de/ecco_lcl.arr
It seems you set the location of the file in . . . ./ecowitt/index.php to “…/ecco_lcl.arr”
The “…/” means 1-step below (to the root) of your website. So the data will be stored not in the ecowitt folder but in main “lentfoehrden-wetter.de” folder

Now you have to set the location in . . ./PWS_easyweathersetup.php
=> on tab “Data” questions about Weather-program / live data file we will use
==> question: How dow we get our live data? select “Ecowitt local upload”
==> question: Path to your realtime data file. enter ./ecco_lcl.arr
That location is with one point only

The file pointer is always at the location of the main executing script (PWS_index2.php) which is in your case the “lentfoehrden-wetter.de” folder
The GW1000 file is in that main folder so the file location starts it “./” which means "inside the current (main) folder.

If you run into problems, please mail me the easyweather password and I can take a look.

After all is OK, set in . . ./ecowitt/index.php line +/- 30, which reads now

 $test_mode      = true;

to comment by adding a comment mark # at the first position

# $test_mode      = true;

But Max/min temp is wrong, i think it will change in a couple of days,but temperature inside house is wrong, becouse “we’ve got data from ecowitt”. I thought it shows just lightning data. Another say how to got data from weatherdisplay programm and lightning data from ecowitt ? Thanks in advance.

You can not use your incomplete ecowitt station for the dashboard. It is just a GW1000 + a lightning sensor

    [stationtype] => GW1000B_V1.6.6
    [dateutc] => 2021-04-15 10:57:04
    [tempinf] => 52.3
    [humidityin] => 50
    [baromrelin] => 30.372
    [baromabsin] => 30.372
    [lightning_time] => 1618484185
    [lightning_num] => 12
    [lightning] => 12
    [wh57batt] => 5
    [freq] => 915M
    [model] => GW1000_Pro

So you have to use WeatherDisplay as your data source, your clientraw.txt has all the basic data.

Lightning: If your WeatherDisplay program also reads the GW1000
and
if WeatherDisplay really sees the lightning data
=> you can add the lightning data using the extra sensor upload file for WD.

You have to customise that file yourself

@kwwa
See here for a new solution Upgrade your "xyz" station with an extra GW1000 and some sensors
You can use both the WDapi and the Ecowitt custom upload for your lightning sensor.
