WD not updating my WU data.
« on: May 25, 2012, 11:25:54 PM »
This is what my WU looks like at http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=zmw:00000.3.93023, says it is coming from Purerua.


If I do a manual search of INorthla22 at WU for my WU data I get this.


After doing a manual test send in WD to WU in here
(admin edit - picture removed as showed login details)

My WU Data will look like this at WU at this link http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=zmw:00000.3.93023...same as the one I posted above (it now reports my data at Mahuta).


Eventually the WU will show it is coming from Purerua again and not Mahuta.I wasn't having any issues (that I know of) and WD was updating to WU, WD does not seem to be updating to WU every 15 minutes (actually stops updating all together). Could it be because of a possible WD update to a newer version?

make sure you have used the full install update if you have not updated for a while
so that you get the cronwdwu.exe program
or check the permissions on that program, to make sure it is not being blocked by firewall or antivirus program
or try setting the times to send different to other internet function times as a test

Sorry so long to get back to this.

I did a full update on WD to 10.37r b30, set firewall permissions on the .exe you suggested.....still no luck in getting it working. I did a manual update and the data sent and WU page displayed data..but no automatic updates follow. I also noticed something weird happened on my WU page and personal site. My extended forecast is/was (or was by the time you may check) wind in MPH and Temps in F (they have always been in metric).
http://mahutaweather.no-ip.org/wxforecast.php
http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=zmw:00000.3.93023

Tried rapid fire, it is not working either and I also did the time offset as suggested..with no positive effects.

Ok the link you have there is Purerua weather station.

The other link I found is this one.
Is this one yours and not Purerua?

Yes I am INORTHLA22. It seems when my data from here stops sending (only way is to manually update at this time) to WU. After a period of time another station nearby fills in or takes over. I don't know how to explain it.

Sorry Brian...I thought it was working with auto updates to WU. But I was wrong...the only way is for me to manually do it  via test data send.

The units issue is on WU's side. Tony mentioned in shout something about it turning to imperial units for him? As well....

Upon checking a few other sites in NZ....they all show imperial. Even over at Wairoa Weather.

Will add this here so as not to lose.
Your IP location and your Regional Location on your PC set what WU will show as measurement units.

Every WU site I visit each day for the highs and lows are always correct. Yours is also to me correct right now.
But if I use VPN and log into a UK server for example then the lot are imperial.
Cheers 

Fotenote to clarify
Azzure was referring to the WU Forecast scripts and not the WU websites as I had thought.
So my about comments were totally irrelevant. WU has obviously changed something as the WU Forecast script is now in imperial for us downunder.

is the main internet switch on in WD under countrol panel, FTP/Internet setup, connections?
is there times set to send in the wunderground setup in WD?
is the switch on in the wunderground setup in WD?
(both switches?)
do you have ticked to use WD's Ftpupd.exe in the connections setup in WD?

Good Evening Toko :)

Took me a while to work it out but it is only the stations like Azzura and myself that use the WU forecast script that it affects. Hotcop and Phil will be the same as well. WXSIM forecasts are not affected.
Cheers

so it was as simple as that?
(that setting is on by default  ;) )
(if you had though ticked, still use for all other, then it would have worked OK)
