    First of all, congratulations on the plug-in
    We want to test it with the data of our Oregon station that comes from Meteohub through the file clientra.txt.
    But it gives us the indicated error
    What could be the problem?
    Thank you

    now you have lost me as i have tried different paths

    Sorry…

    Your path is not relative to your web server. It’s a full path on your file system. It must be something like /var/www/htdocs/weather/clientraw.txt

    Did you find it or do you need some help?

    I have also tried the path i sent you yesterday in the email

    it looks like i don’t have access to the root level so may not work

    You don’t need to have access to. The only thing is to know the full path.

    So, we will proceed quietly, step by step.

    1st, how this clientraw.txt file is pushed on your server? By what software?

    Weather display

    OK!
    How is the settings of weather display to push these files on your server (you must have a login, a password, and a path): what is this path ?

    its via ftp

    domain name/weather/clientraw.txt

    with ftp user name and password

    surly the path should be easier than this?

    I’m sorry, if you don’t know it, there’s no simple solution to discover it. So here is what we will do:
    – I will write a tool included in the next release of the plugin (in less than 2 weeks) to discover this path.
    – meanwhile, you will configure it with url with the following settings:
    => source type : web server (http)
    => source name : aptart-design.co.uk/weather/clientraw.txt
    Could you confirm me that its operational like that?

    no it does not work

    I had been talking with the tech support of the host and the path they came up with was two long for the box it keeps cutting the last part out.

    I was working down the Local file route as the file is on the same webspace as the wordpress site.

    Thanks for trying it looks like if it was working it would be great I think you have made a nice plugin

    I doesn’t understand, your path is more than 60 characters? That’s really incredible! So this issue will be corrected in the next release too…

    Sorry again for these issues…
