@MarcLandis ok. i have seen some other users post that it had taken some time before the new key worked.

without debugging hard to tell. i expect the fetch would fail 401. authentication failed

It seems the default API was changed from 2.5 to 3.0 with the recent update. Even it is (not yet) in the documentation.

Here is what I did:
I inserted in the config.js

apiVersion: "2.5",

Since the problem occurred after the recent MM2 Update (and worked fine until then) it was clear, that the update has some doing in that.

Even if the 2.5 API should be down, it is working just fine.

After this change, it works (again) like charm.

@OldGuyBerlin the doc for 2.29 today

OldGuyBerlin

Didn’t see this until now.

That is why the workaround with the API Version works. ;-)

So let me add one more thing here if I can
if I give these guys my credit card just in case I go over
where in MMM-OpenWeatherForecast will it tell me how many calls it made

MarcLandis

@Ray the number of calls depend on the update intervall you set in your config. For example if you have it update every 10 minutes it will be 144 calls a day.

Ray

@MarcLandis 000 I did not know that thanks for the update that makes a big difference

sdetweil

@Ray they do have an activity page

Ray

@sdetweil okay that’s good to know to

megagprime

we still dont have a fix here, ive tried all this and still wont load

Ray

@MarcLandis okay so forgive me for being ignorant here
I’m having problem with the math here
if I sit for 15 minutes that would be 96 calls is that correct

sdetweil

@Ray 24x4, yes

Ray

@sdetweil thank you
I actually did the long way
144÷15 gave me 96

Hi and sorry for the late reply.
I am pretty busy with my kids and do not have much time to code at the moments.

I changed the default url of the module to version 3.0 as 2.5 has been shut down in June.

I also updated the Readme to respect the latest changes.

Are you sure you use my fork of the module and not the original one?

The url of my fork is https://github.com/Tom-Hirschberger/MMM-OpenWeatherForecast/blob/master/README.md

Ray

@wishmaster270 I am definitely using the original one version 2.5
I am looking into signing up for the 3.0 app key

it just caught me off guard just all of a sudden stopped two days ago with no warning or anything that would’ve been nice and I’m talking about the website not you

sdetweil

@Ray the website warned 2.5 end of life was back in june

Ray

@sdetweil well that’s what everyone has been saying mines been working for several years until just two or three days ago when all of a sudden it just stopped I guess it took a while for them to find me LOL

Ray

So I went ahead and applied for the app 3.0
and gave them my credit card
and it was extremely easy to do
I did not have to create a new app key I was able to use my original ones

I also change the number of calls from 10 minutes to 15 minutes
and I added “https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall?”
In the node_helper.js

thanks to everyone here I was successful
my two systems are back online showing the current temperature

if you change to the latest version/fork of the module you do not need to do that

Ray

@sdetweil
I was under the impression that I had to do that in order for it to work
so I don’t understand what you mean what other way is there
