Default Weather module not loading and no error showing.

I just tried your currentweather settings with my appid and instantly see the current weather. Did you check your appid again?

Registerd to the site, asked an API and that API shows in “my api” folder on the website. Already removed it and re-entered it.

Isn’t there a log file I can check?

yawns · Mar 16, 2017, 4:52 PM

would you send me your api key by private message/chat?

Yes, there is.
If you are starting your magicmirror with pm2 you can run pm2 logs mm to check for errors. And you can check the browser console

The strange thing… I install another weather module MMM_Wunderground, get an API key and it works. Just copy pasted in the config.js and changed the API and pws. restarted MM and got directly what I needed. Strange. very strange.

I’ve had it malfunction a couple of time to, but it usually starts working again after a couple of hours/next day. Seems to me that i’s a connection issue since I don’t change anything for it to work again.

@Preve when I applied for the API Key it wasn’t working for a while as well. I had to wait until it was ready to use in their system.

@broberg But when the API-key is wrong or maybe too soon used, wouldn’t you get any kind of loading error? In my case there was nothing showing on my screen.
