It works for me here although with the testing/unstable version I need to edit
the config by hand to get my preferred location. What does/doesn't happen?
When I open "Configure KWeather", I enter the city in, which, in the
configure window, appears to be fine. However, the panel applet
displays a question mark icon, and the Weather Report that is given
states: "Station reports that it needs maintenance. Please try a
different one." Attempting to update gives the error, "the requested
station does not exist."
Where is the config file that you're speaking of? I did find
/usr/share/apps/kweatherservice/stations.dat, but the ICAO used for
Toronto, Ontario, appears to be correct (that being CYYZ). The rest of
it I was unable to verify, though. I also tried changing the
/home/mark/.kde/share/config/weather_panelappletrc file, which initially
read:
[General Options]
log_file_name=
logging=false
report_location=0000
reportview_size=450,325
smallview_mode=3
I changed the location line: "report_location=CYYZ" (I also tried lower
case). This too failed.
So, I'm stumped. Please lemme know what you did to fix kweather on your
machine.
Thanks,
Mark
