Topic: Saratoga Template Error

[txweather.org]

Hello Team,

Today I came to find an error:

 Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Unsupported operand types: string - string in /home/ferfue2/txweather.org/MB-defs.php:221 Stack trace: #0 /home/ferfue2/txweather.org/MBtags.php(648): include_once() #1 /home/ferfue2/txweather.org/top.php(81): include_once('/home/ferfue2/t...') #2 /home/ferfue2/txweather.org/index.php(39): include('/home/ferfue2/t...') #3 {main} thrown in /home/ferfue2/txweather.org/MB-defs.php on line 221

Any ideas?

TIA!

The line in question (221) is:

Code: [Select]

  $rain5minuteago = sprintf($rainDP,$WX['rain0total-val5']-$WX['rain0total-ydmin']); // should be dmax!

Looking at your MBtags via https://www.txweather.org/MBtags.php?sce=view

Code: [Select]

rain0total-val5|8.59|// rain value 5 minutes ago:|:

rain0total-ydmin|--|// rain min of yesterday:|:

So I think it's barfing because the "ydmin" value isn't numeric. I'd have to look into the docs to remember what all these values are supposed to mean in relation to rain total but it's probably something someone else knows off the top of their head. The comment on the line of code also makes it a bit curious...

Thanks for your reply, the odd thing is that, this just started happening. It's been running fine for many years.

It's still the data being produced by meteobridge that is missing.. You can avoid the issue by changing MB-defs.php

if ( MB_isdata('th0temp-val5') ) { // only set if the variable has valid data

to

if ($WX['rain0total-ydmin'] == '--') {$WX['rain0total-ydmin'] = 0.0;}
if ( MB_isdata('th0temp-val5') ) { // only set if the variable has valid data

@Ken, Thanks for your reply. It is still happening. I am baffled as this was not happening before :/

The update I suggested is not in the current MB-defs.php on your website.. upload it again.

You put it here

if ($WX['rain0total-ydmin'] == '--') {$WX['rain0total-ydmin'] = 0.0;}
if ( MB_isdata('th0temp-val10') ) { // only set if the variable has valid data

and it needs to be

if ($WX['rain0total-ydmin'] == '--') {$WX['rain0total-ydmin'] = 0.0;}
if ( MB_isdata('th0temp-val5') ) { // only set if the variable has valid data

Thanks Ken, Yes, my mistake. It brought me online but I have a bunch of deprecated messages.

My server is running PHP 8.2 could this be part of the problem?

TIA!

Run:

  https://www.txweather.org/check-fetch-times.php?show=versions

and update the indicated files. Then you should have no PHP 8 issues.

Thanks for all the help, still a bit shocked that this had been working, and suddenly BOOM.... nothing works lol.
