Once again - station does not pull data from Open weather map #155

Closed MrSniperPhil closed 2 years ago

MrSniperPhil commented 2 years ago

So, as i've seen there have been issues with the station not pulling data from Open Weather Map, claiming to be fixed in various releases.

8<------------------------ BUG REPORT -----------------------------------------

Expected behavior

Plug station in, loggs into Wifi, pulls data from OWM

Actual behavior

Plug station in, pulls correct time from server, apparently doesn't pull data from OWM, displays 0°C, no predictions etc. Sunrise/set is at 01:00, all the prediction dates are set to Thursday 1:00

Weather Station Color version

Latest github master

Hardware

D1 Mini Pro ESP8266 2,8" SPI TFT Display

8<------------------------ END BUG REPORT -------------------------------------

I've tried a lot of different citys, from the ones already in the config files (Zurich and Sydney) to London, Nuremberg and Bayreuth (Bayreuth being the city i actually want to use). I tried only inserting my Wifi information and API key, changing nothing else and it still does not work.

If i call the API manually on my Browser, it returns values as expected, so i assume that my API Key is valid. Since the station calls the correct time, i assume that my Wifi also works fine.

No idea what i should try...

Posting the output from the serial monitor here would be helpful I guess.

I am assuming you're asking for this? This does not change with more uptime

In the Arduino IDE: Tools -> Serial Monitor after you selected the correct port through Tools -> Port, then hit reset on the WeMOS module.

Doesn't look like the baud rate of the monitor was set to 115'200.

so.. it can't connect to OWM, but when i use the URL in my browser it spits out stuff

Ok, i'm a dumbo...

My local DNS entry in my router still pointed to the old IP of my Pihole... now it works.

Sorry to waste your time. sigh
