      @sdetweil So I’ve upgraded to my account on OpenWeather (and added payment details.
      Generated a new APIkey and added this to the config of the weather module but it is still stuck on loading.

        @JMac can you look at the messages from npm start

        the ‘loading…’ message is just to have something on the screen until data arrives

        and as such it didn’t arrive.

        can u post the module config (xxx out your apiKey)

          @sdetweil same problem here.
          Upgraded my Openweather account, added paymentdetails (seemed to worked well), generated a new API key (how can I see it is a 3.0 key?)
          Used your upgrade script, Sam.
          Entered the new key in my config.
          Everything works fine except the default weathermodule.

            This is my config, maybe somebody can tell me what is wrong?

            {
            module: "weather",
            position: "top_right",
            config: {
            weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
            type: "current",
            location: "Apeldoorn",
            locationID: "2759705", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
            apiKey: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
            }
            },
            {
            module: "weather",
            position: "top_right",
            header: "Weersverwachting",
            config: {
            colored: true,
            weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
            type: "forecast",
            location: "Apeldoorn",
            locationID: "2759705", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
            apiKey: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
            }
            },

              @Peter ok, two things…

              you ALSO have to add

              weatherEndpoint: "/onecall",
              

              to each config, as this is required for the 3.0 api

              this makes it work with my 3.0 apikey

              Screenshot at 2024-10-08 06-09-51.png

              second,
              in the forum, when you post config, or log info, please use the code block wrapper… else the quotes get changed to workd processing type which JS doesn’t understand

              to do
              paste the text into the editor, blank line above and below
              select the text just pasted
              hit the </> button above the editor

                  @sdetweil so my config was identical to above, so I’ve added you new line “weatherEndpoint…”

                  I’m using Putty to access the MM and used pm2 to stop the MM.
                  which it did.
                  However now, pm2 via Putty is no longer having any effect on the MM.
                  MM isn’t launching.

                  run pm2 logs mm and get a parsing error over adding the new line
                  unexpected token weatherEndpoint your configuration file contains syntax errors.

                  all I’ve added is weatherEndpoint: “/onecall”, to a final line under the apiKey line above.

                  any thoughts?

                  edit to add, pm2 status and logs show that pm2 exists still it’s just not launching. can pm2 be “updated” or should I follow the process for a first install?
                  for completeness I don’t want it to launch MM on boot I just want to be able to start and stop the MM using pm2.

                      @sdetweil I have it exactly as you have it above.

                      can you share a config for this module as an example?
                      I can’t even check if this is working with pm2 not launching the MM
