Sharper Image Weather Station EC-WS115 not updating ***Again*** 10/19/22

It looks like the WAMPSERVER fix is throwing PHP errors on line 99, 120 and 55 for the getweather.php file. I am thinking this might be due to a change in the data string from Weatherbit ???

Below is an updated version of getweather.php. It works around weatherbit.io changing their free forecasts from 16 days to 7 days.

  1. Download file
  2. Update your weatherbit.io key in the file.
  3. Copy to c:/wamp/www/ folder to replace existing getweather.php

Post here if you have issues.

    I had this same error but with a different line code other than 100. It was apparently caused as I had made a lot of attempts to prompt weatherbit.io to update the data on the display. As I understand a limited number of queries are allowed with a free account on weatherbit.io. I stopped trying to get the display to update and walked away from my PC and within about two to three hours the display updated. My suggestion is to leave it alone for two to three hours and hopefully as in my case the display will update.
