Re: Getting wxssgauges.php to Work

Sooo...one step forward but two back. After all was said and done the windrose was blank, so I thought I'd work on that. I could not find the file windrose.js anywhere within the scripts subdirectory or anywhere else. I downloaded the latest steelseries files and realized that several of the files w...

Re: Getting wxssgauges.php to Work

I had the wxssgauges.php path set to ./ssg/ NOT ./lib/steelseries/ making that change solved the problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was way too focused on the contents of the ssg folder, and blinded myself to the correct path (so to speak). Cannot thank you enough! The (additional) silver lining is that it go...

Re: Getting wxssgauges.php to Work

So... wxssgauges.php has $ssgDir='./ssg/ not /lib/steelseries. I have been focusing on ./ssg as the directory where the "action" was. Looks like I made a left turn instead of a right turn somewhere along the way... So what should the directory structure and file content be? I'll show what ...

Re: Getting wxssgauges.php to Work

...and most of the files in root have 644 permissions (read/write by user only, read by others. Not sure if that is important. Other than wxssgauges.php site is working fine.

Re: Getting wxssgauges.php to Work

Thanks very much for the additional info. The problem with communicating with Saratoga is fixed and the update list & text file is created. I keep forgetting that my host requires me to "open up" and allow a connection to a specific IP address. That is now done. I've updated all (excep...

Re: Getting wxssgauges.php to Work

Many thanks for the great feedback & suggestions. I checked the scripts folder and all the files you listed are present already. I'll set about updating immediately. Regarding permissions, the files were set to 644, so just read & write. Is that OK?

Best Regards

Getting wxssgauges.php to Work

I have the gauges working on my website ( boulderwx.com/gauges.htm), but would like to get them working in the Saratoga templates which I am using on the rest of the site. Realtimegauges.txt and gauges-ss.htm are being updated in the root directory of the site. The SteelSeries gauges also work from ...

Re: advforecast2.php Question

Yes I used the update zip file, and what you say is just what I expected. I was thrown off by the mention of sending the icon files to the forecast/images directory. unzipping it there would duplicate the folder structure above, which doesn't seem right (and isn't) Just wanted to be absolutely certa...

advforecast2.php Question

I'm finally getting around to updating to the latest version of advforecast2.php and have downloaded the php file and the 3 iconsetV2 and iconset update files. Before proceeding with the update I have a sort of "belts and suspenders" question about the distribution of the updates into the ...

Send WX Data to 2+ Websites?

I have an operating a website, http://www.apcat.org hosted in the UK which has been experiencing issues on the hosting side. I also want to set up other domains and use another hosting service for those domains. The easy way would be to alias all the domains together, but I want to change the websit...

Re: "Cumulus Weather Data"

Steve Thanks for the suggestion. Actually I corrected the problem. Way back when I set up the Saratoga Templates I had the exact same problem. In the Settings .php file, it was necessary to change the value of $Site['WDdateMDY']=true to false. So I thought I must have copied an earlier version of th...

"Cumulus Weather Data"

I've finally gotten CUtags & realtime.txt to update properly and data is being uploaded OK,-mostly. One item which is still completely incorrect is the "cumulus weather data" age and start time, and it's status is never current. Since the realtime.txt and CUtags.php seem to be working ...

Re: CUTags.php not updating

The problem has been that I expected to actually "see" a file named Realtime.txt in the webfiles folder. I didn't understand that this was supposed to happen "out of sight", so I kept looking for it, it didn't appear so I messed everything up trying to get it to show up. Of cours...
