Err! Need help again with WD sticker
« on: September 08, 2007, 11:07:00 PM »
Ok, I have setup weather display  clientraw.txt to upload into the server.
I installed the script and used config.txt to configure the script, and now I can not seem to get it to work.

After configuring it, I went to the url as stated by the helpme.txt file and this is what I get:

http://www.tricountyweather.com/CurrentWX2/Sticker/wxgraphic/wxgraphic.php


Does anyone have any clue how to get this to work! Cheers, Scott

In your config.txt file, try changing the line:

$data_file_path  = '/CurrentWX2/';

to:

$data_file_path  = './clientraw.txt';

Quick question!

 I went into wxgraphic.php file and changed it so that it would display a image file called sticker.jpg and it seems to only update when it wants too. If i leave it alone, it updates fine, but having it as a jpg is not allowing it to update correctly. I would like to be able to put the image on my site so that people can us it on their own, but It needs to be a image, not the "http://www.tricountyweather.com/CurrentWX2/Sticker/wxgraphic/wxgraphic.php?type=banner_big" one. Anyways, if you know how to correct this, it would be awesome! thankyou

Sorry,
 I should have specified a little bit more. I use Godaddy to host the site and can not seem to get it to work this way either. I Can not find the htaccess file and I am kinda afraid to mess with  it when I do. I have searched in the Control Panel and see no options for forwarding or redirecting the script.

Cheers,
Scott

Are you using a master graphic alled sticker.jpg? If so, then try this --- change the name of the master graphic from sticker.jpg to sticker.jpeg.
