Topic: Meteoalarm timing out

[ConligWX]

Hi guys

Anyone else notice the meteoalarm script with saratoga Templates timing out recently?

Code: [Select]

--checking METEOalarm warning URL --
Using Settings.php $SITE['EUwarningURL'] entry for test.
URL: https://www.meteoalarm.eu/en_UK/0/0/UK014.html
Cache: ./cache/meteoalarm-en.txt
 curl fetching 'https://www.meteoalarm.eu/en_UK/0/0/UK014.html'
 curl Error: Operation timed out after 4001 milliseconds with 0 out of 0 bytes received
 HTTP stats:  RC=0 dest=81.31.132.86 port=443 (from sce=1x.x.x.x)
      Times: dns=0.001 conn=3.071 pxfer=0.000 get=4.002 total=4.002 secs
 headers returned:

Skipped cache write test to ./cache/meteoalarm-en.txt file.
Test was NOT successful.
--end METEOalarm warning URL check --
seems to be something seriously slow on that site. (and no compression)

I have emailed the admins on this site but I also found out some information on Meteoalarm.eu so heads up for any script writers @saratogaWX  / @wvdkuil

It is currently being redesigned so tech issues of this sort should disappear when the new overhauled system goes online (expected January 2021) but the folks at ZAMG can give you more details.
