Topic: IONOS

[cospringswx]

I switched from GoDaddy to IONOS hosting. I use Weather Display software. I corrected to settings under connections to reflect the new FTP host , FTP username and password. WD is not updating. Connects to host then disconnects . Any ideas?

[cospringswx]

Disregard. Had to enable SFTP on WD .

They will only allow SFTP on their hosting plans. Killed my uploads to the website site of GR Level 3 since that doesnt have SFTP.
Been with them almost 2 years. A couple site outages here and there but good value for the price!

Hi Tony!

I've had GoDaddy for a long time and it was time for renewal and decided to make the switch due to a steep increase in price. Just went live today

[cospringswx]

Looks like I have to fix my sticker. Don't know what happened

[cospringswx]

Anyone know what might be wrong?

Attached is a snippet of my current config.txt file with the $data_file_path set as './clientraw.txt'

You have a few updates to apply -- https://www.cospringsweather.com/check-fetch-times.php?show=versions
but that is not the issue with your wxgraphic.php

Since the background graphic and the conditions graphic show on the image, I suspect it is a problem with the TrueType font selected
As a test, in config.txt change

Code: [Select]

$font_file = './fonts/franklin_medium_condensed'; to

Code: [Select]

$font_file = "none";
and see if the text appears.  If it does, then re-upload the ./fonts/franklin_medium_condensed file using binary FTP and try reverting the $font_file to its original setting.

Also, check the Apache error_log for PHP error messages .. that can give a clue to what might be wrong.

Hi Ken,

Thanks for the response. The font is set to none and still nothing. I did update the other files that were outdated.

Does the Apache error_log have any entries?  If not, temporarily add to the top of config.txt

Code: [Select]

error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set("display_errors","1");
then the view-source:https://www.cospringsweather.com/wxgraphic.php?type=banner2_big should show any errata

[cospringswx]

Now my wind icon on the dashboard is not showing

It's initially there but when when the javascript real time code runs to update it, it references a non-existent file (ajax-images/wr-NW.png). The initial page code references "/ajax-images/wr-NNE.gif", so it looks like you have a mismatch between the PHP and javascript as to whether you are using gif or png images.  It looks like the variable "wrType" in ajaxWDwx.js is the culprit (set at line 74).

[cospringswx]

It magically fixed itself. I have not touched the ajaxWDwx.js file in a long time

[Jasiu]

Weird. Looking at the source at line 74 now, it has:

Code: [Select]

var wrType   = '.gif';      // extension of the graphic filename

I am unsure how to check this Ken.

I checked.. no errors being displayed on your image at https://www.cospringsweather.com/wxgraphic.php?type=banner2_big but.. no text either.

Since your thermometer.php and fire danger scripts are displaying text/image correctly, there's something else amiss that causes the wxgraphic.php to not display the text.

Can you put config.txt and wxgraphic.php into a .zip and attach it to a reply.  I'll take a closer look.

Hi Ken,

Thanks for the help

[saratogaWX]

I don't think you attached the wxgraphic set of files from your website.. the config.txt in the zip doesn't match the config.txt on your site.  It also seems to be missing your graphic templates (banner2_big.png etc.)
I need to replicate your issue on my test setup to help diagnose the issue, and for that I need your set of current files for wxgraphic (config.txt, wxgraphic.php and *.png files used by your wxgraphic.php script).

Fixed it Ken
