Right, but I’m still getting a server 500 error. The http link is direct to my website. I was trying to make sure the php file and the link I entered was properly entered, including the dashes. Still may be a permissions issue which I’m working on. Thanks
Looks like it’s a permissions issue. I see duplicate php files in the main pwsWD folder and then again in the pwswdupdate folder. Do I update all php files in both folders for the duplicates or only one?
Edit. I updated all php files to 644 and scripts seem to be working. I went ahead and setup WD to upload from my station and got the “success” message when I tested, but still not seeing my station conditions, just the sample conditions. I think I need to provide clientraw.txt path in settings? If so, do I fill out the boxes in the WD pic below
can someone tell me why I am getting this error:
Warning: array_key_exists() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in /home4/jzinckgr/public_html/pwsWD/w34_livedata.php on line 305
The real error is Warning: file_get_contents(…clientraw.txt):
So there is no data to be read, if you meant that clientraw.txt is in the root is should be …/clientraw.txt
But that is not correct either as http://www.weather911.net/clientraw.txt does not exists (404 error) or can not be read.
When there is no data at all, all kind of errors and warnings can occur. Also the array_key_exist which was checking if a certain field existed.
So for now please reset the location of clientraw.txt to “./demodata/clientraw.txt” then there will be no errors messing things up.
Then you can change ONE setting at a time => save after every change => test => only continue when all remains OK

That’s where I’m confused. WD generates a clientraw.txt file right? I assume this gets uploaded to my host, but I can’t find the file and thus the path to direct to
There is far far to much data that WD can generate and upload. There is a youtube movie and a wiki about what to select and how to upload. Then WD uploads only what you want/need.

Can get temp, barometer and webcam image to work, but not seeing any wind data or local forecast, current conditions. It’s still showing demo for those. When I open the wuweatherupdate.txt file, it is blank. Do I have to use darksky for conditions and forecast?
I never had an API key from WU so I think that explains why the text file is blank. Wondering if I’ll be able to get one after Feb 15. Seems like a lot up in the air.
Is there a way to use WD to provide 5 day forcst instead of using darksky or metar? I see an option in settings if I’m using clientraw, but not sure where to get the actual frcst file info from. Is it WD?
All uploaders to WU should be able to get a NEW-API-key. But what they can retrieve and if there will be scripts to use the key is unclear.

[b]The forecast[/b] can only come from DarkSky at the moment. You need a free key for that. The limits are also very generous, 1000 calls/day
The current conditions can come from DarkSky, using the same API-key
Or from METAR using another free key
Or WD can read the METAR for you and the clientraw.txt will contain that information.
Got it all fixed. Looks good. Just need to get the historical data working so I can see the trends. I setup mysql db on my server, but do I import the util SQL file from pwsWD? Thanks !
why does dark theme not stay dark all the time? I notice in my web browser that during refresh it changes to the bright theme, then I have to back and switch it again
