Robert,

I've enabled the weather underground feature, loaded my credentials on the appropriate data file, but it seems that nothing gets to their website. Any known issue about this?

Thanks

Hi Molino
As far as I know there are no issues reported

You would have edited defines/wundergnd_defines.h
to set WU_DeviceID and WU_Key

And in the controller_config,h file

define ENABLEWEATHERUNDERGROUND 1

Then reprogrammed the controller AND uploaded the data sketch files.

I assume you are using the Arduino ESP32 Core version 2.0.5

Then
In the management server MISC page, with Publish Enable set to Enabled, I think the starting state will show as Disabled, and you have to specifically set it to Enabled. Once set to enabled, you only have to do that one time, next boot it knows to start it.

Regards
Robert

Hi Miguel
I have uploaded firmware 132 and latest pdf

You will need to upload the sketch data files (you cannot use Arduino IDE version 2.0.1 to do that, it has to be Arduino 1.8.19

Please provide the following for me
the cntlr_config.jsn file (pdf explains how to get this)

The version of Arduino Core ESP32 you are using in Windows it is in somewhere like
C:\Users\rob\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\esp32\hardware\esp32

You can send this to me (gmail in pdf)

Using firmware 132
enable weatherunderground
go into file weatherundergnd.cpp and enable WUDEBUG_PRINT
#define WUDEBUG_PRINT 1

Also, edit the defines/wundergnd_defines.h file

Program the controller (stay connected using USB)
Upload the data files
Open the serial port monitor of Arduino IDE set to 115200 no line ending

Reboot the controller
You will see messages every time the controller attempts to send to weather underground
every 5m if using default send time value

Let it run about 15m then click in the serial port window, ctlr+c (copy) then open notepad, past the messages and save in a text file, and send that to me also,

Regards
Robert

Robert, forgot to mention, Arduino Core ESP32 v2.0.5

No, that will not work.
we are currently on

Arduino ESP32 Core 2.0.16 (or 2.0.13)
