Thanks, those work for me.

Do you use a proxy? (Menu -> Network, or run in a terminal: cinnamon-control-center network)

sha-hin commented 9 years ago

No I don't use a proxy.

Let's see if you can reach the API from a browser. Does this link show you some data?

Unfortunately, the link didn't work. "Webpage not available".

mockturtl commented 9 years ago

You're having a network problem, then.

Maybe this will help?

Thank you sir for your help. I've tried all solution to get this link open but no avail. Maybe the link is blocked in my country as I asked other two friends to try open it from different PCs but as usual not available even link "weather.yahoo.com" work perfectly so it's strange. Best wishes.

Maybe the link is blocked in my country

That's my best guess right now. Maybe you can try the link through a web-based proxy.

Good luck!
