Hi,
After an automatic update to the Cairo-Dock 3.3.99 Beta 1 Trusty version for my Mint Rosa Cinnamon machine, the weather applet can no longer make a connection. I get a "no data retrying now" message. My Location code is correct. Updating to version 3.4.0 did not fix the problem.
I tried installing the Weather Desklet 2.9 on my desktop using weather.com (deprecated) entry to see if the problem was with the weather.com site, and using the same location code, the desklet worked perfectly. Any idea how to get the cairo-dock applet working again?
Thanks,
garystewart |

Weather isn't working for me either. I've been running 3.4.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 for while and haven't updated anything related to the dock. The weather just stopped working a couple of days ago. |

Guest,
If that's the case, then it may actually be changes to the weather.com site. I went on the site and they have definitely updated/upgraded their site within the past few days, and they have mentioned it. I've had that happen a number of years ago, on more than one occasion with weather.com. However, the loacation codes have not changed. Perhaps access with an api or changed paths are the problem. Have no idea. |

Hi guys
I have the same issue. Weather stopped working few days ago. I'm running Ubuntu 14.04.4 and haven't changed anything. Hope this will be solved in the coming days. |

Cairo-Dock weather AND Conky weather no longer working in Mint 17.3 or Ubuntu 16.04, but nothing was changed here.
Therefore, weather.com must have shut us out. If anyone figures out a work around, please post. Thank you.

Okay so, in Conky, whereas I used to use this:
http://xml.weather.com/weather/local/<LOCATION>?cc=*&dayf=10&link=xoap&prod=xoap&par=<XOAP_PARTNER_ID>&key=<XOAP_LICENCE_KEY>&unit=m
Now that it is broken I use this:
http://wxdata.weather.com/wxdata/weather/local/USNC0577?cc=*&dayf=10&link=xoap&prod=xoap&par=<XOAP_PARTNER_ID>&key=<XOAP_LICENCE_KEY>&unit=m
AND IT WORKS JUST FINE NOW!!!
See my screenshot: https://personal.filesanywhere.com/FS/M.aspx?v=8a6b688c5f6370adb29a
Yea!

Does anybody know where we can edit the url that is used by Cairo-Dock's Weather app? I hope that its somewhere in the apps settings files. |

It looks like the url is compiled in. For those of you compiling cairo-dock-plugins from source here is a patch:

Hi,
As I do not compile my self why don't you compile this in the actual deb package and put it into the repository?
I would like even to know where I can find this source code on the pc.
Ciao

I can confirm this patch works. Unfortunately, I'm still using ubuntu 12.04.
So for 12.04 and Cairo-dock 3.4.0 users, here is the compiled one for replacing /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cairo-dock/libcd-weather.so (make sure you have a backup)
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-XSYP5W-8Wea2NWTGJtSkxybEk
There is also a bug report on:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/cairo-dock-plug-ins/+bug/1581725 |

Hi
thank you for the quick response. I use UBUNTU 12.04 LTS 64 bit and Cairo-dock 3.4.0.
So I put the file in the exact place but there is unfortunately
no change.
I just ask the maintainer of this package to publish a patch for this problem
and for future version the possibility to configure the weather plug-in with the
api and the service (e.g. Open weather map, Yahoo weather etc.)
Using for example Kodi with Open weather map it works. You just can get an API
without paying for this.
Ciao

Hi Guest,
I am using Mint 17.3 64bit Cinnamon (Ubuntu 14.04) with Linux Kernel 4.3. The patch is no go for my build. Thanks for your kind efforts in compiling the executable. And thank you Roberto for contacting the maintainer. Hopefully a patch will be issued soon.
Best wishes,

I am using Mint 17.3 (64 bit) w/Mate DE and Linux Kernel 3.19.0.22 and Cairo-Dock 3.4.0 and the file worked perfectly for me! Thanks for the fix!
I just copied the file as root in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cairo-dock/libcd-weather.so, and now see my screenshot: https://personal.filesanywhere.com/FS/M.aspx?v=8a6b688d5d65aeba6fa4
Yea!

Hi all.
I'm on Debian 8 64bit MATE with Linux Kernel 4.6 and Cairo-Dock 3.4.0.
The patched file worked beautifully for me but *only after restarting Cairo-Dock.*
Replacing the file and simply going to "Reload now" from the menu didn't work.
Thanks a lot! |
