[weewx-user] Re: Need help with forecasts in SteelSeries extension - apologies in advance
Phil, Good to hear it is working, don't think it was really your fault though, I just looked at forecast entry in the wiki to answer your question below and saw that it left the final 's' off search_list_extensions. Fixed now though. You are correct, using wee_extension to uninstall forecast will not only remove any directories/files in /home/weewx/skins that were installed as part of the wee_extension --install, but it will also delete the forecast python code in /home/weewx/bin/user and all forecast settings in weewx.conf and that will break any other extensions/skins/code that uses the forecast extension. In this case all you need to is disable the forecast skin so that it does not generate any reports, that way the underlying forecast code is still being run (ie forecasts generated/downloaded/saved) but the reports in the forecast skin are not being generated. This can be done in a number of ways, the easiest is to edit weewx.conf. You need to look in the [StdReport] section, you should find something like: [[forecast]] skin = forecast HTML_ROOT = forecast just comment it out by entering a has (#) at the start of each line: #[[forecast]] #skin = forecast #HTML_ROOT = forecast that way it is easy to enable again if you want. Just save weewx.conf and then restart WeeWX. Gary On Sunday, 2 September 2018 23:45:30 UTC+10, Philip Kutzenco wrote: > > Gary, > Thanks so much! Bitten by a typo - sloppy on my part.

Gary, Thanks so much! Bitten by a typo - sloppy on my part. It's all better now! If I might ask one more question: Right now, I only want forecast info in the SteelSeries generated webpage. That will likely change, but if I have no need for the forecast output in public_html/forecast (or, for that matter output from any specific other skin or extension) how do I stop that? If it's a skin, I should be able to uninstall it with the wee_extension utility. If it is an extension like forecast, I imagine that uninstalling it would stop the Zambretti forecast and prevent me using it in SteelSeries. Do I just let WeeWX keep copying files to public_html/forecast? If there is something on this in the User Guide or Wiki, just point me there. Thanks once again.

Phil, In skin.conf change 'search_list_extension =' to 'search_list_extensions ='. Save skin.conf and on the next report cycle it should work fine.

[weewx-user] Re: Need help with forecasts in SteelSeries extension - apologies in advance
Gary, I've attached my skin.conf for the SteelSeries skin. I notice that there is a file called Zambretti.html in public_html/ss that has a message in it that "The forecast search list extension is not installed". However, the timestamp on that is hours earlier than the all of the other files which are currently being populated there. I think that Zambretti.html file was left over from earlier, when I first installed the forecast extension, but prior to my adding the search list extension line to skin.conf for ss. So, I probably can just delete it.

Phil, Thanks, it appears all is fine but the forecast extension extension does not appear to be being called by the SteelSeries skin (we should be user.forecast.ForecastVariables appearing in the search list log entry for the SteelSeries skin). Could you post a copy of your SteelSeries skin.conf please. Gary -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

Gary, Here's the log file. FWIW, in gauges.js, I set the pageUpdateLimit to 0 (so the web page wouldn't time out) and the realtimeInterval to 300 - matching the archive interval of 5 minutes (so the viewer will get an indication of when the web page will update). I've waiting more than long enough for several web page updates, though. Thanks for the quick reply and offer to help.
