good morning
ws1001 clones
1. as above mentioned weatherstation folder needs to be in root directory so the main updateweatherstation.php file that does everything reads
meteokerbach.fr/weatherstation/updateweatherstation.php2. as most people already have a main website in there root directory so easiest way around that is to create a sub domain
example weather.meteokerbach.fr so the final destination would be
weather.meteokerbach.fr/weatherstation/updateweatherstation.phpexample server.ini ws1001 clones dont need addtional software to communicate to a server , however using software has benefits to produce max,min,averages,historical data .
example using the sub domain
[Menu]
default=www.wunderground.com
web=1
web1=www.wunderground.com
web2=www.weather.meteokerbach.fr
[www.wunderground.com]
Server=www.weather.meteokerbach.fr
ServerType=php
ServerPort=80
UploadType=Customize
ReadOnly=true
[www.weather.meteokerbach.fr ]
Server=weather.meteokerbach.fr
ServerType=php
ServerPort=80
UploadType=Customize
ReadOnly=true
remember in the console you can switch between the two to see what one works , different server setups react differently some respond to using www and some don't due to configuration of server.
always wait aprox 60 seconds for connection after changing and rebooted . remember also the updateweatherstation.php will automatically forward on your data to weather underground so you dont lose that facility unless your server goes down for some reason.
this simple line does the weather underground update in updateweatherstation.php
$wunderground = file_get_contents("
https://rtupdate.wunderground.com/weatherstation/updateweatherstation.php?" . $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
echo $wunderground;
if you get totally stuck please drop me an email 99% of the time its gets resolved , just getting the server.ini file setup correctly is all you have to do.
*note some times after editing the server.ini on your desktop and uploading back to the console does not work due to a file permission , so the changes are not recognised ,so the guaranteed but long way of doing it is the SDCARD method .
firmware 2.33 to the latest 2.3.7 all work fine for this method.
hope it helps ..brian
