Good morning,

I have a problem with Weatherbit, no more weather update.

Here a copy of the error message I have.

If someone can help me ?

Thanks & have a nice dayScreenshot_20250609_211317_UDMobile.thumb.jpg.1bd3fde6bfd42e0d02da8ebec13fa948.jpg

The error message is coming from the WeatherBit server.  It's telling you that their server is not accepting the key as configured in the plug-in.

You'll have to contact WeatherBit to get more information on why your key is not valid, or create a new key and try that.

If this is a new key, then please give it some time to be activated on the WeatherBit side.

Bob,

I have noted something, Weatherbit runs on my phone/android but not on my computer/microsoft Universal Devices Administrative Console.

It's not running on your computer that's running the Admin console.  That is just acting as a display for the your eisy/polisy. The plug-in is running on the eisy/polisy.

When I enter your API (from post above) in my installation, it works fine.  

Make sure you don't have any extra spaces before or after the configuration values as that will cause problems.

Bob- can you confirm its working now?   They told me its up and running and my API is valid.

Restart your nodeserver and see if you can error

Query failed with 403 : {"error":"API key not valid, or not yet activated. If you recently signed up for an account or created this key, please allow up to 30 minutes for key to activate."} a57d9a9dd7364655b6b16cfaaa801b8a

been using it for a year now with no issues

 

 

I have 2500 and 43200 for my polls. 

that has worked until now.

That most likely is the problem.   Verified with another EISY.  Somehow my setting went to 2500.  It was 5000 which is about every 90 min.  2500 is under so its timing out.  I have screenshots of my settings and it was 5000 a month ago.

This should not have happened.

Weatherbit confirmed it was disabled for too many calls on consecutive days.

So I created a new one and its working and set to 5000 as indicated in last post.

Going to email Benoit as to WHY this setting reset itself from 5000 to 2500 on BOTH my EISY (one was disabled though as they also wont let you use the same API on two devices)

The last day it worked was last Thursday and I have not rebooted it in a month.  STRANGE.
