While there seem to be great excitement for the new meteotemplate uploader,
I previously wrote a service that updates my meteotemplate database
directly without an intermediate php script. In the service i use a
."getSql("INSERT INTO" statement. This works really well and I even
resolved the dayrain issue that is now being discussed on another thread.
There is one annoying bug and I dont know how to solve it. My
meteotemplate install is located on a different server than weewx. It can
sometimes happen that the meteotemplate server is temporarily unavailable.
To overcome this scenario I use a "try" statement when inserting SQL data,
so that it will just skip the upload attempt if the MySQL server is not
available. The bug is that the mysql insert command continue to fail after
the meteotemplate server becomes available again, and the only way to
correct it is to restart weewx.
The fail message is "Error (2006, 'MySQL server has gone away')" and it
continues to be displayed after the meteotemplate server is back on line.
Any ideas how to resolve this will be appreciated.
