Nope, still not working

#32

Log out and in again after updating.

#33

@Wimpy Is the new version coming to UM 14.04?

#34

I do not see the update (main server US)

#35

Works great, now, on xenial-mate PPA. Second timeā€™s a charm. :joy:

#36

Same here, second time's a charm. So now to wait for it to filter down to the 1.12 desktop :slight_smile:

But no forecast

#37

1.12 will take some time, because it has to be SRUā€™d.

I donā€™t know what you mean by xenial-mate PPA, Itā€™s not available on the manu. Iā€™m using Server for United States

#39

This PPA needs to be installed.

And you end up with the 1.12 desktop being replaced with 1.14.

Awesome Sauceā€¦I have weather on my 16.04 machinesā€¦Thanks!

#42

Shame I canā€™t get 1.14 on my 14.04 desktop machine, itā€™s my main computer but 16.04 causes it to have lock-up issues

#43

The fix is for METAR data only. To fix IWIN data (aka the forecast) you need to change the url in
weather-iwin.c to:

http://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/data/forecasts/zone/%s/%s.txt

I have bookmarked that for future(?) use as I have returned to the 1.12 desktop.

#45

Hmm, seems its like previous versions, only shows the airport areas in Puerto Rico. :cry:

#46

I did an upgrade and still do not have a fix. Any ideas?

#47

Hi debianone

That should be a dist-upgrade after you install the PPA. Check your system monitor to verify your on the 1.14 desktop.

#48

I just happened until I added the following repository:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate-dev/xenial-mate/ubuntu xenial main

Does the radar work ?

Does the radar work ?
[/quote]On 16.04 with Mate 1.14.1 (PPA):

Current Conditions OK
Radar Map OK
Forecast UNAVAILABLE

@Dave_Barnes seems to have the solid fix but Iā€™m not sure anyone is working on it. @Wimpy?
