Well shoot, on a whim I disabled SKYNET and reconfigured WXMON with Imperial and Airport and my Airport - and it worked, mostly...
Yus!!

Got this when asking for Aviation:
[Downloading WX Feeds]...rm: can't remove '/jffs/addons/wxmon.d/wxmetar.txt': No such file or directory
rm: can't remove '/jffs/addons/wxmon.d/wxtaf.txt': No such file or directory
OK... I'll have that fixed in the next release. This probably would only happen on the first time through... you wouldn't see it next time you downloaded weather.

I know I added a custom list of what to ban that I got from another thread, I think it might be yours but double checking...
Can't be mine! I'm running mine! LOL

You can probably just re-enable skynet, and just add some whitelist entries for these kinds of things. Take a look at your syslog, and see if anything is getting blocked outbound when you're performing these actions -- gives you some insight which IP its complaining about that you can then whitelist. ;)

Sure was,

If it's getting stuck here, then you are not able to access -- make sure this is whitelisted and excluded from any blockers.


That's absolutely strange to me... My upper and lower case choices work across the board. I remember there was some instance in the past where someone had an issue with menu option choices like this... I'll see if I can find what their resolution was.


Nothing wrong here! Looks fine.


It really sounds to me like you're having connectivity issues with these three sites... make sure you are whitelisting and excluding them from any blockers you might have in place.

Code:
https://ipv4.icanhazip.com
http://ip-api.com
https://api.weather.gov


Which means that you are also not able to resolve the global weather site:

Code:
https://api.open-meteo.com


This error you're getting here means it tried downloading the weather, and the results was that 0 amount of information was received to parse weather information from. Wish I could be of more help, but there's some serious resolution or blocking issues going on here... not to mention it not accepting key input.

Could you make sure that your DNS settings are working correctly, that you can resolve sites from your router in an SSH prompt?

Oh it gets better, getting closer to a resolution...

Disabled Skynet on a whim (mostly because it couldn't get updates) and it started working! Started Skynet backup, removed the custom exclusion list "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ViktorJp/Skynet/main/filter.list" back to being broken, disabled Skynet, working perfectly again. I'm guessing I need to whitelist some things, I have Skynet only blocking inbound if curious...
 
LOL... hey I'm using that same list!

OK... I wiped out my whitelist, and sure enough... something was blocking ip-api... so what I did was add this IP to the whitelist, and everything worked again:

Code:
208.95.112.1

Yup, had to whitelist: 208.95.112.1 after seeing what Skynet was doing while trying to run WXMON and now its working fine... Then added your custom filter back in, still working...
We got to the same place, just different paths.. This explains why the mesh nodes were also having the same issue with WXMON...

Glad you're back up and running! Enjoy!! :)
 
Last time the spin happened I've learned your real name by accident, @SomeWhereOverTheRainBow. It was the usual "sky, ground, sky, ground" situation and few times we clearly saw someone there over the rainbow... and @Viktor Jaep was yelling "Jesus Christ!" every time... is that you? I took a picture:

Is that the new copilot?

Yep, it seems to be running great! I feel like soon we will need a manager script for all of your terminal shells. That might make them all more easily portable to AMTM. That way you wont be like every one else with Tons of different script options in AMTM. You could call it MENUMON or VIKMON.

I'm starting to become pretty attached to SWISSARMYMON :p
 
Option 1
a. open up Chrome
b. type https://wunderground.com
c. wait for it and all the ads to load
d. go up to the search bar and type in your locale
e. interpolate a fancy graph like a weather scientist?
f. plus, google and a host of other shady companies are probably tracking you throughout this whole process

Nifty tool...

I've been using wttr.in for years - this is a wrapper for wego, and has outputs of various types... it uses the openweathermap api, which offers up free api keys/tokens.

Github here - https://github.com/chubin/wttr.in

Wego GIT here - https://github.com/schachmat/wego

from the browser - https://wttr.in/92020 - alternatively one can just curl the same URL

Wow, that's fantastic. I was actually thinking of adding some weather graphics.
Oh... wow! :cool:

@Viktor Jaep, please report to the office. The general manager wants to speak to you.
Hold on... Getting my resume ready. Jeez!
 
You better hurry up because an invoice for 4.000 gallon aviation fuel is coming your way.

I have removed the name of the courier company. You've seen it though, correct? Good...

:cool:

Minor update to v0.4b today... Sorry @Tech9... no fancy weather graphics YET!

What's new?
v0.4b - (April 25, 2023)
* FIXED:
The first time aviation weather runs, it deletes some temp files that contain weather info... it was trying to delete files that didn't exist, and complained. Fixed this.

Download (or update directly through the WXMON UI):
Code:
curl --retry 3 "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ViktorJp/WXMON/master/wxmon-0.4b.sh" -o "/jffs/scripts/wxmon.sh" && chmod 755 "/jffs/scripts/wxmon.sh"
