Install error

Post by MM0ZIF » Wed Nov 22, 2023 8:11 am

Hi All,

on the install I get a install fail on the following error message- "Please check your climateID, it must be a valid number."

I followed the instructions to get to http://www.meteotemplate.com/template/p ... te/map.php and zoomed into get my exact location but on Edge and Opera no popup appears with a location!

Clearly stated in text: goto this page to find the climate ID. ;)

To determine the code for your location, go to this page and here you will see a map. Zoom-in and find the point that best represents your location. Then click on it and in the popup dialog click Select. You will be redirected to the climate page of that particular location. Now look at the URL and you will see it has a number at the end. This is the number you must insert for this parameter below. It should be a number between 1 and 5000.

That is what the instructions say... No Popup appears in ANY Browser I own!

To be honest: then its a browser issue. Are you using a pop-up blocker?
In which part of Scotland are you located (guessing MM0 is your prefix, did not find the location on the fly ;) )?
