"Invalid Date" appears in Weather module. MM v2.29.0

@reilley that time is the sunrise or sunset time, sunrise is next, time is correct(in my display)

@reilley I copied your config and used my apikey
no other changes (well I wrapped your config in code block to keep the quotes correct for copy/paste)

So my code worked for you and the only change was the API key? This key worked two days ago, so not sure what’s happening here.

correct

That’s nuts. Why would an API key work two days ago and not today? Seems like maybe there’s a configuration problem elsewhere but I not sure where it would be since I made no changes to weather.js or other .js files associated with the Weather module.

@reilley I don’t know… try my approach
do

cd ~/MagicMirror/config
cp config.js.sample  testcfg.js
cd ..

then edit the testcfg.js and paste your weather info from config.js here
then change the units to imperial
save
then on the terminal window

export MM_CONFIG_FILE=config/testcfg.js
npm start 

[reilley]

@sdetweil - nope, same result

[sdetweil]

@reilley ok, next thing

weather is done all in browser,
on the MagicMirror screen ctrl-shift-i to
open the developer window, select the console tab,
put wea in the filter field

look for any messages

[reilley]

@reilley - oh, I think I know what’s wrong now.

[reilley]

@sdetweil - you’re gonna laugh, but I found the issue. I was using an inactive API key. My backup was too old and was before the v2.29.0 API 3.0 requirement. Sorry to drag you through this!

[sdetweil]

@reilley glad you found it!
