[Bug 791874] Re: freemeteo loses day information

 

Hourglass appears when Freemeteo is updating information from Internet.

So, if you say that when Freemeteo was stalled, hourglass was displayed,
probably the reason for stalling was that updating did not finish. I
myself have used Freemeteo for last couple days with a very unstable
Internet connection, but it hasn't stalled yet. If you want to help
finding the point when the screenlet stalls, you may run it from
terminal with something like:

   python /usr/share/screenlets/screenlets-pack-
basic/FreemeteoWeather/FreemeteoWeatherScreenlet.py

If the screenlet is stalled the last output from terminal would give
some hint about the place where the process stalls. If we get some
information about the reasons of stalling, we can add more precise debug
outputs to Freemeteo and repeat the process until we have found the
culprit.

Title:
  freemeteo loses day information

Status in Screenlets — individual widgets development:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  As time goes by (days) all the days become listed as Today. The only
  way I have found to get the day to display correctly again is to
  reboot the system (As the system is on 24/7 this hardly ever happens)
  or to kill the process then restart it.

  Using Screenlets manager to stop the screenlet does nothing,
  restarting all autostart screenlets restarts other ones but not
  freemeteo though freemeteo does bring up another instance and asks for
  a zip code. In fact the none configured freemeteo appears on every
  startup alongside the configured one, deleting the empty config file
  does not prevent it reappearing on the next restart.
