I recently had to rebuild my PC from scratch. I got everything working on my website. New Gloucester, Maine, USA Home Weather Station (wd version) Except for whatever reason the max-min for wind and temp is not updating to “today” month and all time seem OK. I even went in and adjusted using the update function for PWS dashboard with no luck.
Did you setup the Cronjob?
Is this in the control panel of weather display?
It appears to be working, year and month, just “today” isn’t working. Maybe a check box I missed?
No, see 11_cron.pages (pwsdashboard.com)
I’m a bit puzzled why your clientraw seems to be uploading Celsius temps. Maybe use a parser like Saratoga-Weather.org - Weather-Display clientraw*.txt parser to see what is going on.
BTW I don’t run a cron job with clientraw, but I only use the alternate small blocks and I have no history.
Alright thanks,
I’m using weather display and I’ll take a look in there tonight. The Celsius temps is another issue I have that pops up occasionally that I haven’t figured out what is causing it. I think it has something to do with my PC doing a reboot after an automatic update. Although I’m not ready to commit to that yet.
WD has the ability to run the cron job. Its in the control panel with the API.
Regards,
Jim
Good catch! As explained in Wim’s pdf.
It can actually run it every 5 minutes, too.
So I ran the WD parser, everything looks OK. I got the cronjob running thru weather display, however PWS dashboard does not appear to be updating. Any other ideas or places I should be looking?
Ignore my comment about clientraw, it always uses Celsius. . . see clientrawdescription.txt in the wdisplay directory. Sorry.
Manual run of PWS_cron_stationcron.php in browser worked which would suggest to me the path in WD is not set right
I do not see the tick / explanation mark usually next to clientraw in footer to access the status popup which would tell what had stalled
I think I might have fixed it. I had a typo. I had “.ph” instead of “.php”. I have to head to work now. We’ll find out in a little bit if it worked.
