website icon not updating
« on: June 03, 2017, 05:47:03 AM »
Hi

The current conditions icon on my website is not updating, it's night time here and it stopped raining a few hours ago.
http://www.mangawhaiweather.co.nz/
Could someone point me in the right direction.

Many thanks

Check http://www.mangawhaiweather.co.nz/wxstatus.php
The 5 minute file is not uploading, it is 32 hours old.
Your realtime file is correctly uploading so the temp and most other values are current as they are updated by Ajax from the realtime (clientraw) files.

But that icon = ajaxconditionicon2 seems to need other data.
This is from your ajax update script:  http://www.mangawhaiweather.co.nz/ajaxWDwx3.js
Code: [Select]
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// DYNAMIC CURRENT ICON: settings for the dynamic current conditions graphic
// tag: "ajaxconditionicon2"
// ... you'll need the dynamic-icon.php script from www.bashewa.com
// ... get it here: (NOT YET IMPLEMENTED)
// Set this up in wxIcon in DASHBOARD ICONS above:  { src: "./dynamic-icon.php" ,width: 170 ,height: 127, useName: 9 }
That script which should be there dynamic-icon.php gives a 404 error => not found, at least not in the root.

Hi Wim

Thanks for your reply.

Do you know how I can fix Weather-Display FTP and Weather-Display weather data to get it current?

The dynamic-icon.php I do not understand why it is missing, I have no copy of this file even in my backups.

Thanks

I have currently no WD-program running to answer those questions. But there is a wealth of information and help available for WD.  For detailed questions about the setup of WD and to find the youtube movies which explain FTP setup for WD, you should visit the WeatherDisplay forum at http://www.weather-watch.com/smf/.
The author is always present on that forum to answer those questions.

Nice to hear.
But probably others with the same type of problem in the future are reading this topic and can be helped if you post the cause and the solution(s) here also.
