RE: remove dew point / defaults.php

[Max H. <ma...@fl...>]

The first thing you need to do is determine whether your defaults.php is
being loaded. A simple way to do this might be to insert a line 
 
echo "This is in defaults.php";
 
into it - it'll break phpweather and throw lots of error messages, but if
you see that, then the file is being read. If not, then we need to work out
why.
 
The most likely reason would be that the webserver does not have access to
read the defaults.php file. What kind of webserver are you using?
 
Cheers,
 
Max

Subject: Re: remove dew point / defaults.php



hello Greg,

Thanks but I think you've misunderstood my problem;
The weather data seems to be largely fine, but I am having trouble getting
defaults.php to be recognised by the weather program, not just regarding my
chosen excludes. I'm using php4 on freebsd.
Other people have reported similar troubles on the site at sourceforge.

Interestingly, having said the above, my defaults.php does seem to be
acknowledged certainly in part, because my chosen php error reporting level
setting is being acknowledged.

Does anyone know/have a method to help me out?

thanks again,
lee

Hi Lee,



Just read your post and kind of chuckled.  Spent some time on similar

problems.  Do have the answer though.  Ready?



It's not a PHP problem or the program itself.  What we have here is a name

resolution issue.  You're probably on a high-speed internet connection. 

To fix your problem do this.  Open up the file data_retrieval.php. Go down

to the line that defines where the data is

being pulled from.  Think it's http://weather.noaa.gov - replace

weather.noaa.gov with

205.156.51.200. This solves the timing issue with dns and the api.  This

will also increase the time it takes to get your metar.  Have fun with the

program.



Good luck,



Greg

thanks Max, but sadly no change.

Presumably all we have to do is reupload defaults.php and refresh the

browser cache? Or do we have to go into config builder or something to

get the new file recognised?

bug)

You probably want to define the exclude array as



$this->properties['exclude'] = array(

'runway','dew_c','dew_f'

);



Let me know if that works.



Cheers,
