Hi, I followed the procedure on the site, but I cannot activate the skill in the state because I have this message that appears. " There was an error parsing the feed. Please ensure that the feed is valid JSON or RSS." It's a new weewx 5, the xml is well generated. I try to modify it according to the instructions but nothing works. if you have any ideas? thx.
