WXSim CSV file not found
Posted: Wed Aug 08, 2018 8:31 pm
I am having a bit of a problem displaying the wxsim forecast using the wxSim Forecast Plugin. A message is displayed "WXSim CSV file not found". You can view it here at: http://www.lillianweather.com in the center column at the bottom. Select WXSim where Weather Underground is shown.
The plugin instructions contain notes on how to edit certain parameters the forecast.php file. There is also a wxsim plugin setup in the meteotemplate setup which contain essentially the same parameters found in the forecast.php. I presume if one edits the parameters in the plugin setup then it is not necessary to manually edit the forecast.php file. If not someone please tell me.
I found a 3 yr old post in one of the weather forums from someone who had the same issue with the csv file not found. It was explained that it was best to use a relative path for the latest.csv path parameter. This is probably/maybe MY problem. I have tried many different paths without success, i.e. ../../latest.csv (default), ../../../latest.csv, etc.. I've used 0-4 levels up. I'm no expert on relative paths as I rarely use them. Could someone help me out on what I should put there for the relative path? What I have used is not working. I have the latest.csv file in public.html/template folder. I am using version 17.0 and all of the blocks/plugins are the latest ones.
Thanks,
Tom
