      When I try the code in the config.js I get this in the logs

        yes, bug in his code…

        use the code I posted on page one to extend the error reporting

        but it returns 401 as well…

          Is there a solution for this error? Is it something I’ve done or something in the module code?

            @DDE12 401 eror is unauthorized

            so the apikey you are using has expired

              I setup the default weather module with OpenWeather and it is working with the key I have. I obtained the key a few days ago. Is it the same key for MMM-OpenWeatherForecast?

                @DDE12 no idea

                the module says go here
                https://home.openweathermap.org/users/sign_up
                the default weather openWeathermap provide says
                https://home.openweathermap.org/users/sign_in

                so it would seem the same key

                the module uses this path

                https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/onecall?"
                

                the default module uses this

                		apiVersion: "2.5",
                		apiBase: "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/"
                                        +apiVersion+"onecall?"
                

                so, they appear the same

                  I put in a new key just to see but still have the same 401 error. When I installed the module I got

                  npm WARN old lockfile
                  npm WARN old lockfile The package-lock.json file was created with an old version of npm,

                  Run `npm audit` for details.
                  

                  I did not run audit fix. Is there something that I need to do with the install?

                    i don’t know why the MMM-OpenWeatherForecast is failing ,
                    other than it says unauthorized. i would open an issue for the author.

                      @DDE12 Could you share your config? Also be sure put your API key in quotes in the configuration. If you aren’t using quotes, this could be a reason why the module is giving you the 401 error

                        I can, but I think I figured it out last night without changing anything in MM or the module. I initially signed up for the free account on OpenWeatherMap. Last night I signed up for the One Call by Call https://openweathermap.org/api and MMM-OpenWeatherForecast starting working. Before signing up, I tested my API in a browser at https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/onecall?lat=someLatitude&lon=someLongitude&appid=secretAPI
                        and at https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall?lat=someLatitude&lon=someLongitude&appid=secretAPI
                        and both reported 401 error. After signing up, the module began working in MM. This does require a credit card and subscribers get 1000 free calls per day. Subscribers can set the maximum number of calls in their dashboard to prevent going over and getting charged. This doesn’t seem like it would be too much of a problem if users set the module’s config appropriately.

                        I’m guessing that the module is trying to get data that is no longer free and some API’s are grandfathered ?? Or I misunderstood what type of account I needed from the start.

                        Where is the API address in the module’s code?

                        Let me know if I can provide further information.

                          If the Module doesn’t load the informations change ```
                          “https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall”

                          to
                          

                          “https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall?”

                          an it should work!

                            @DDE12 the API url is in the node_helper.js

                            we recently add a Parm to enable picking v3 of the API vs 2.5 (old free).

                            the add on modules need to do the same

                              Fantastic work! I was using the previous DarkSkyForecast version - easy shift to this one.

                              I’m trying to put the hourly data and daily data in the same “row” across using tiled view instead of 2 rows. I’m happy to edit the njk file (have tweaked a bit haven’t gotten it “just right” yet). Any ideas? I gather it’s something with the hourly and daily divs.

                              Is data available to get mm of precipitation in the hourly and daily blocks? It shows % chance - keen to add precipitation instead.

                              Thanks!!

                                Replying to my own post incase someone else wants a single row for 3 hours and 3 days. You’ll need to comment out lines 191, 309, 315, 318 in the njk file. This results in a single row readable left to right hours then days. It’s a useful view if you’re using a full width view.

                                  So what’s the solution for the 401 error?
                                  The key works in default weather module, but in this one it’s not.

                                    @justbob audit fix forces changes, and many times drags in breaking changes that we can do nothing about.

                                    we are not running a web site w hundreds of random users, and are not dragging in other page content with their scripts. we are calling apis…

                                    so the risks for (y)our site is extremely small…

                                    I don’t know the answer on openweathermap.

                                          Thanks for the Info. Hope that the switch to Open Weather will be smooth. Long time ago that I have modified something on the mirror…
