Error: This Withings metric contains no weight data. Not syncing

[arutscheidt]

Hello everybody,

I use Withings-Sync inside a Shell script triggered by a cron job.

script:

#!/bin/bash

share='/someDir/'
dateFile=$(dirname ${BASH_SOURCE[0]})'/nextSyncDate'
nextDate=$(head -1 ${dateFile})

sudo withings-sync --gu '%myUserName%' --gp '%secret%' -J -o ${share}/Gewicht_${nextDate} -f ${nextDate}

echo $(date +%Y-%m-%d -d '+1 day') > ${dateFile}

The script stopped working since 25th Sept 2023. Today I started it manually and all I get is the following message for every day:

Following some data:

Name: withings-sync
Version: 3.6.1

Python: python3.8

Did the API change on Withings or Garmin?

[stynoo]

Please upgrade. The latest version is 4.2.1 at the moment.
The version you are running lacks some very important updates.

If you still have an issue on that version, please start a verbose session with debug logging and share the redacted output.

[arutscheidt]

Do I need a higher python version?

[arutscheidt]

Ok, this is weird. I upgraded to 4.1.0. (Maybe 4.2.1 is with a higher python >3.8?)

The output looks the same This Withings metric contains no weight data. Not syncing... but the import into Garmin was successfull.

Difference is at the end of the output

...

So there was a fit file uploaded. What about the error message?

EDIT: Maybe the error disappears with the current version. So I have to check, how to upgrade python without crashing my system. (Had issues in the past :-) )

[stynoo]

It should work jus fine with python 3.8 (for now).
Please paste the full debug/verbose log (but redact your login info). The above log does not show any issue.

[stynoo]

Your issue with connection to Garmin was solved with the upgrade.
The INFO messages you see in the output now are expected. For some reason Withings is saving a single reading from a scale in multiple entries in their cloud.
When parsing these entries, only the entries containing weight data are actually parsed, if no weight data is found, INFO is printed.

In your DEBUG output, you'll see 3 entries without weight data, so they are skipped, the 4th entry contains the data so it is parsed. I guess this issue can be closed.

Any idea what I should do?

[longstone]

I assume you're not using the latest docker image. Othervise, the version should be printed out. Can you please doublecheck? you get the latest with docker pull ghcr.io/jaroslawhartman/withings-sync:master or better docker pull ghcr.io/jaroslawhartman/withings-sync:v.4.2.4.

[marlemion]

I have explicitly pulled the 4.2.4 version (master does not exist?):

I have just realized that there should be a second datapoint of today - but there isn't. Hence, there is most likely a problem with the scale not synchronizig. I will check that and report back.
