Hi,

I installed PulseStation on my Syno DS412+.
I added Service Yahoo Weather and added a device.
First Problem : When I edit the device, the Weather.City doesn’t save. So, I edited the JSon in the file YWeather.json in the directory “Web/PulseStation/Data” and added the Code “BEXX0001”. : Is it correct ?
Second Problem : The weather is never updated. I don’t find why and I don’t knwon where to search 🙁

There is something more to configure ?

Thanks for your help

Hi,

In weather.city you need to enter the name of the city mentioned in yahoo wheather, not any code.

Eg: the city Koningshooikt becomes Koningshoyckt 😉

2) The weather cannot be updated if you do not add the correct city name. 😉

Kind regards,

Hi KeyMaster,

Thanks for your answer.
But I have already tried with the name of the City.
I’m just editing the json file and put “New York” as city. (I think it’s a little village in the usa 🙂 )But nothing work. The last update is always the Date/Time when I created the “Device”.

Here’s the beginning of the JSon :

[{“id”:”yweather-1″,”type”:”Yahoo Weather”,”manufacturer”:”Bilil”,”product”:”Yahoo Weather”,”time”:1443268953,”values”:[{“id”:”1″,”type”:”string”,”property”:”weather.city”,”units”:””,”readonly”:”false”,”value”:”New York”}, …..

Another idea for me ?

Best regards

I think that there is a more generic problem. Maybe something with the permissions. I’m currently searching how to correct that…

Hi,

Did you already try following inputs for the city name?
new-york
New York

If it doesn’t work I’ll try it here as well.

Kind regards,

Please check if mariadb is installed if not install it.

Hi,

I installed mariadb and it’s ok.
I can update the City into PulsesStation WebSite and the update works.

Thanks a lot Mika and K.Rens. !!!

(PS : Maybe to add into the Section FAQ : How to install on Synology NAS)
