Issue with WXSim Plugin

Post by azchrisf » Thu Feb 22, 2018 7:07 pm

I'm not sure if I need to configure something differently, or the plugin can't handle the newer WXSim files.
This is the output I get on the forecast page - the graphs, etc. all display OK.

SS attached.

Hi,
unfortunately we will have to wait for someone who uses WxSIm and might have an idea of whether the file changed, you used a different file etc. I do not have access to WxSIM so I cant tell where the problem is

I use the latest version (1.5) and no problems here.

In the screenshot there is a text 'incomplete data', did you try to rerun the forecast?

I found what the problem is - the latest.txt file that wxSim outputs has more than just the "forecast" text in it. It has tables of what is expected to happen, etc. Basically, extra data the parser does not expect.

I threw together a small app that strips everything but the Forecast text out of the file, and once that's uploaded, it works fine.
