Hmm.. Not mine either. I'm showing 17.1. No notification to update to v18.

I know the past updates has been done manually (upload the folder) and run the script.

I have a script that changes http to https. Once the script runs (Every so often), my padlock turns green, as shown below.

There is a plugin/block retrieving http information, thus not seeing the green lock. Mine shows it every once in a while. These screenshots are taken from Firefox. Other browsers should be able to show you this information. Click on the lock and select More information: 2.jpg Select Media Tab: 3.jpg...

I actually re-signed up to WU, so yes. I agree. We will see..

Interesting read.

This really has me interested.. "If you are a Personal Weather Station owner, you will receive more information about our plan to offer free access to the data you provide to Weather Underground. We’ll reach out once that plan has been finalized."

Very strange. It works with 2 commas for myself.. (Reverting back)

This is strange. I have a comma in my sig and it's working correctly in Firefox. Strange. Maybe it freaks out with 2 commas. I'm going to test it.

MariaDB 5 runs at port 3306, MariaDB 10 runs at port 3307!

Asobig was correct. . It just took us a while to figure it out.

I ran into the same issue a while ago, but forgot about it.

Thank you Asobig!!

Yay! I know why it’s not working.

Delete MariaDB 10 and install 5. 10 runs on a different port (not standard), thus it’s not “seeing” it.

Hmm... I am at a loss. Let me churn on this some more. The error you are receiving is tied around either incorrect hostname and/or incorrect credentials to the DB. Did you create a different username for the DB, or are you using the default root creds? If you created different creds, you can login u...

The database name you provided in the main setup file, did you give the username full permissions to that database?

Also, provide a password to the DB username and provide that password in the setup file (For troubleshooting)..

OK, let's drill down on the PHP settings.

What do you have when you click on the Web Station? Your General Settings? And, your PHP Settings (Let me know what extensions you have checked)?

In phpMyAdmin (when creating the user), what host did you provide? The IP address of your NAS, 128.0.0.1, or “localhost”? (I think you mentioned that in your above post. Just want to make sure). The 2002 error is either mySQL not running, or incorrect hostname provided. In the main template setup, y...

Great post. I aways check in the php file to see what syntax is needed.

First off, you don’t need to allow anything through the firewall. You will want to delete the rule you created for php. The template will communicate with php internally. No data is shared with the outside world (no incoming connections to your DB). Securing php on a Synology is challenging. It’s po...

I run my website off of my Synology DS916+. I am running a few errands today. Let me re-read what is going on and see if I can help later on. It is possible... We will get you running. First off, everyone has access to your phpMyAdmin. You have to set it up so your local IP range has access only or ...

I can't comment on either hosting providers. The only provider that I'm very familiar with is GoDaddy. If you don't have a hosting account, and can pay for like 5-10 years up front, you can save substantially. They have always been up, and I like their online tools (cPanel, etc). * I do not work for...

It seems something is locking up your database.. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13148630/how-do-i-find-which-transaction-is-causing-a-waiting-for-table-metadata-lock-s (This might be outdated - Depends on what version you are running.) This is a good start.. Google "Waiting for table metad...

I've stopped providing my data to Wunderground a while ago. They don't deserve MY data anymore. They need to remember WHO helps them pay their bills. "WE" the PWS owners upfront the costs of the devices, internet connection, and share our data with WU. I guess since they are part of IBM (T...

I have successfully removed the bottom URL, icon, and the lower right-hand side of the sticker. I use the interactive sticker, so I modified stickerInteractive.php file. It took me a while to play around to find the locations to where I had to delete. Since it gets modified, I created a backup file ...

I do the same thing. I have 1 block (Bloomsky timelapse) that changes back to http. I have a script that scans the file and adds the s to the end.

You have to create a new tab in order to change the big icon. You can't modify the icon once the tab has been created. What I did was edit the current tab and copy the code (Paste it in notepad, etc). Delete that tab. Re-create the tab and follow the instructions on that page (I attached a screen sh...

I perform a backup once every 2 months.

Frequency is preference. Some backup more frequently, while others backup less frequently.

That is beautiful! Now if someone could take a picture of the space station base on the backside of the moon.

I run the NWS forecast block on my page and my website is using https. It's working fine. My website is running on my Synology NAS, running Apache 2.4. My link might not work for some Countries. I was getting multiple 'hits'/probes by some, so I decided to block them. :( What doesn't 'work'? Doesn't...
