Weather-App and Widget Connection Problem

[MartiMasaKoegx]

I just complained at the Weather - Foreca.com feedback site. I’ll post it here if I would get an answer!

Just to say, meecast with foreca works perfectly here…

I really hope they’ll renew the subscription…

You have to perform this to get it working:

devel-su + password
echo -e ‘\n[X-Sailjail]\nSandboxing=Disabled’ >> /usr/share/applications/harbour-meecast.desktop
cd /usr/share/harbour-meecast
ln -s /usr/share/harbour-meecast/buttons_icons /usr/share/buttons_icons
ln -s /usr/share/harbour-meecast/db /usr/share/db
ln -s /usr/share/harbour-meecast/html /usr/share/html
ln -s /usr/share/harbour-meecast/iconsets /usr/share/iconsets
ln -s /usr/share/harbour-meecast/ images /usr/share/images
ln -s /usr/share/harbour-meecast/qml /usr/share/qml
ln -s /usr/share/harbour-meecast/sources /usr/share/sources
ln -s /usr /share/harbour-meecast/xsd /usr/share/xsd

add location + close meecast + restart meecast + it works perfect

Works for me Works for me

Foreca STILL do not have a correctly functioning site, foreca.mobi still does not show a sunshine icon when it is sunny, it’s been this way for years. I contacted Foreca, they don’t admit there is any problem, they say the problem lies with Jolla software, not theirs.

foreca.mobi - Do you see the SUNSHINE Icon top left of the screen?, no, neither I don’t either. Check your own town, it is sunny, you’ll have no icon. Not sure why Foreca denies this.

What a shower!

[filip.k]

Indeed. Within Desktop Firefox (114.0.2) I don’t see Sun icon either. If location has partial sun there is an icon.

[davidrasch]

I do see a sun icon when I follow your link (Firefox Desktop on Windows). Same picture with sailfish browser and webview in forum viewer.

[Crash]

Same issue happened here about a day ago, was working great beforehand.
Thanks for opening the thread,
Would be really great if the API lease could be renewed,

The feature was very useful.

[rainemak]

We’re looking the issue. Reported internal issue report as well.

[Pasik2]

Otherwise works well, but the icon disappears from the launcher. However, you can open the application through the terminal.

[jemmjemm]

I confirm, that neither widget nor application does not work. Until it is sorted out, I moved to omWeather (from F-Droid).

[mips_tux]

It does not work for me
The icon app disappear and even via the command harbour-meecast in shell does not works (root or as a simple user via the terminal on the smartphone).

[poetaster]

Don’t run as root? Works for me as @fingus describes.

[poetaster]

Did you install from harbour or openrepos. Or @carmenfdezb 's build on github?

[fingus]

I used the Jolla-Store-Version

[Pasik2]

From openrepos. The icon was in the launcher after installation, but disappeared when I made the changes in the terminal.

[poetaster]

Strange. I did the links a bit differently, but otherwise same procedure. Could you post the output of

1. ls -al /usr/share/icons/hicolor/*/apps/harbour-meecast.png
2. cat /usr/share/applications/harbour-meecast.desktop

[Pasik2]

[attah]

Can we please do the Meecast stuff in a separate thread? (Wasn’t there already one?)
