Hi guys,

I'd like some help, i've been trying for days now and getting hopeless.
I am unable to get any type of weather information in Dashticz.

here's my config.js, hope someone see's what am doing wrong.

The config file does not mean anything to me, sorry.

Did you follow the buienradar setup as explained in the wiki?
Does buienradar appear in the hardware list?
Do the buienradar devices appear in the device list and the various device tabs?
Any error messages in the log file?

At config['owm_api'] = 'https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0 ... &appid=xxx'; you have only to add your api key, not the string you did.
Can you try if the block then works.

I have a somewhat similar problem. Since the update to Domoticz 2022.2 I seem to have lost my weather block in Dashticz. I checked the config.js file and I have an API key which should be working:

Code: Select all

config['wu_api'] = '';
config['wu_city'] = '';
config['wu_name'] = '0';
config['wu_country'] = 'NL';
config['owm_api'] = 'a985441ff3247e338823df1bed9bce77';
config['owm_city'] = 'My Home Town';
config['owm_name'] = 'My Home Town';
config['owm_country'] = 'nl';
config['owm_lang'] = 'nl';
config['owm_cnt'] = '5';
config['idx_moonpicture'] = '0';
config['owm_days'] = true;
config['owm_cnt'] = 5
config['owm_min'] = true;
config['use_fahrenheit'] = 0;
config['use_beaufort'] = 0;
config['translate_windspeed'] = 1;
config['static_weathericons'] = 0;
I replaced the actual location with My Home Town for this code snippet. Of course the config file has the actual town in it ;)

Tips on how to solve this?

TIA

@Sjonnie2017 Dashticz weather info has no connection to Domoticz.
Have you already tried to install the latest Dashticz beta and see if you still have the problem?

Updated to beta. Refreshed Kiosk browser on my tablet but no luck. Will investigate further though
