Everything is now up and running. It was the WDISPLAY.INI settings but more than just the webfies location. There were several pointers to the old location that had to be quashed. Once the program started running I wasn’t getting data out to indigo and the wunderground station. The wunderground station hasn’t been maintained for years (my call) but I now wanted to have it up and going. Brian tirelessly worked with me (he did the work, I just followed his directions) to track down the problems. Came down to, “make sure the main Internet switch is on under control panel, ftp/Internet setup.” It wasn’t on, once turned on the data flowed as it should.
Next step is to move to OS 10.12 which will happen in a week or two. I’ll followup with that, hopefully that will be a non event.
There is no program out there that is supported better than Brian supports Weather Display. Once again he has come to the rescue. After I make the move to 10.12 it will probably be years before I have to touch the program again. It just works . . .
Glad to hear it worked out
Yes Brian does a great job. He has bailed me out of a few sticky situations
Good luck with Sierra. I think you will like it.
Did you say your VP was usb or serial? Make sure to get the latest driver from Silabs
I’m running Davis VP2 USB with Sierra no issues (well… 99% no issues)
It’s USB. Currently running Silabs 3.1 #-o but I’ve downloaded the current 5.04 waiting for the Sierra. Not going to be messing with it now because (say again) if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. I know it will be broke with Sierra though. 
Btw I’m on slabs 5.x and works fine with sierra !!!
I really need to goto High Sierra. Overtime I call Apple for an issue while they say they still support Sierra, most of the time they tell me to upgrade first - which I won’t do.
Good luck !!!
OK, I’ve done the transition to Sierra. Weather Display went without a hitch. The other mission critical app, Indigo had a mild hiccup because of a wayward database but once I tracked that down it got up and running rather quickly. Everything else has been a freaking nightmare. I did no migration, was starting from scratch. Getting my mail and things like that transfer from the old to the new has reaffirmed why I don’t like updating OS’s :-).
One issue that I’m having with Weather Display . . . Happened on the old OS when I updated wdisplay to the current version. I was waiting to see if Sierra would correct it but it didn’t. Indigo quits and restarts wdisplay every 6 hours. I might back off on that in Sierra, see if it’s necessary but in 10.10 wdisplay would be running but after awhile would stop transferring data to Indigo. The restarts took care of the problem. But when it restarts the splash screen doesn’t go away until the next time I’m on the computer and click on the splash screen. Wdisplay is doing it’s thing, just with the splash screen still up. Also the WeatherDisplay menu in the upper left hand corner of the menu bar is non functional. I used to be able to click on it and get a quit option which you still do when you first launch the program but shortly thereafter it does nothing when you click on it. You can still get the quit option on the bottom dock icon but no longer on the upper menu. Is this normal or do I have something going on here?
that last problem sounds like there might be a screen taking focus away
do you mean you cant even click on that to get control panel to show up,or
?
Wdisplay is running fine. If I click on it I’ve got full control of all it’s functions. In the attached pic, Clicking on the upper left menu item just highlights the name, does not give any options. Other pic is the dock icon which produces the expected results. This has been normal for me since updating to B305 on both 10.10 and 10.12. This has no effect on the actual program.
its not clear to me what you would expect to see or have happen?
also you can set the colour of the numbers in the windspeed /direction dials
under control panel, colour setup
When you first launch the attached pic is what you get from the menu bar. In about 10 minutes you get just the highlighted Weatherdisplay show in my previous post.
