Summary: defaults.php has no effect

Initial Comment:
Hi, I just discovered php weather, this is great !

And I am really admirative using this tool, it is such well 

developped !

I am using the latest version 2.1.1 downloaded today.



Anyway, when creating my defaults.php via your 

interface, and puting it in the root dir, this has no effect, 

my page doesn't take this in consideration.

I just made a test to see if the include was done but 

that's it.



Voila !



Merci.



Loïc

So can I conclude that this works correctly in PhpWeather?

Or are people still having problems?

Please ignore my previous comment, I am an idiot who can't even 

type "defaults" correctly :).

A couple of things to try:



i) replace PHPWEATHER_BASE_DIR with the full path. I had

some trouble with that on solaris but haven't had time

recently to work out what was happening. I know it sees the

file, but you it's perhaps not including it :-P



ii) get rid of the conditional if{}, and change the

include() for require(). That'll at least make it tell you

why it can't get hold of a file. You could also turn up your

error reporting level - that should help work out what's up.

This is very weird for your setup looks fine. I've just

downloaded phpweather-2.1.2.tar.bz2, unpacked it and made a

defaults.php file with



<?php

$this->properties['pref_units']    = 'only_metric'; /*

locale_common.php */

?>



This works as expected which means that the weather report

on the index.php page now only contains metric units.



I'm using PHP 4.3.3RC3 on a Debian GNU/Linux system with

Apache 1.3.27. What versions are you using? (Use the

phpinfo() function in PHP to find out if you're unsure.)

I have the same problem here..



stereo@Hertz:~/public_html/phpweather-2.1.2/ > ls -l 

defaults.php

-rw-r--r--    1 stereo   stereo        176 Aug 16 09:16 defaults.php



The file doesn't even seem to be read by base_object.php. I added 

echo "foo"; to defaults.php and didn't find anything in the output.



PHPWEATHER_BASE_DIR seems to be correct (/home/stereo/

public_html/phpweather-2.1.2). base.object.php sees the file; I 

added another echo foo; after 

"if(file_exists(PHPWEATHER_BASE_DIR . '/defaults.php')) {" and it 

is printed twice.





This is my defaults.php:



<?php

/* This is a local configuration file for PHP Weather.                                                  

/* icao */

$this->properties['icao']='ELLX';



/* pref_units */

$this->properties['pref_units']='only_metric';



?>

Hmm, it works here. Have you uploaded defaults.php to the

same directory as PHP Weather?
