Modifying the Config File
-
Sam, as a last resort (operating from 2 computers) I attemped to take a picture with my phone and copy that here. No luck. I hear you about working from my PC on the pi, but beyond my experience level. I could try and copy to another place or system?
-
@jimb posting your pic is the third icon from the right above the message editor
-
Sam, I get an error when trying to copy the file. Does it need to have a particular extension? -
@jimb copy what file?
-
Phone picture of the Config.js file. The picture has a jpg extension.
-
@jimb never any trouble, 3rd icon from the right
-
Sam, I don’t know why the picture is not copied, I suspect it is over-sized. Dev yield
The first 12 s the following error message:
Failed to load resource: the api.openweatherapp.0…c6acaacfb123ce212:1 server responded with a status of 401 (unauthorized)
(twice)
Could not locate data …TypeError: Cannot read openweathermap.is 43 properties of undefined (reading ‘humidity’)
…then as time increases and it tries to update the screen more specific error messages occurThye first 12 characters of my api id are truncated in the first error message text above
-
@jimb yes I have had to upload to my PC, then edit the.pic smaller sometimes. technology is so cool sometimes
-
@jimb once you download it search for your location. For example, city. It with show your locationID or long or lat. Etc

Guys,
It’s obvious that I am not specifying the correct item or leaving something out. It’s difficult because noe of the examples I’ve see "lay out’ the complete line of the config only some parts. I’ve played with different items changing them aroud and I get different reports from running in dev of either “401 no authorized” to “404 not found” on the string sent to weathermap. I am using the following-
apiVersion: “3.0”
location: “Houston”
locationID: “4699066”
apiKey: “xxx” a 32 digit hexadecimal received after registering.
I am not using the Lat or Lon at this time
