Howdy Steve and WeatherCat scripters,

OK, I've screwed something up and can't recall how to fix it...

 ;) . . . Good, when you remember how to fix please it let me know how you did it - because I wish I had good fix for this! . . .   [banghead]

Everything works except the WC Applescript Tags processor, upon which several other scripts rely.

Honestly, I think this is Apple's gatekeeper trying to save you from yourself.  Try downloading the file WC AppleScript Tags Processor.scptd and see if you can open that with the Script Editor.  I would expect that to work.  If it does, then save it as an Application on your computer.  Since you made it, it should allow you to run what you created.  I hope that will solve your problem.

If that doesn't work see if you can open up the file that purely the AppleScript: WC AppleScript Tags Processor.scpt.  If that one opens, you have a problem, there are some strings that need to be added because I made an attempt to make these AppleScripts localizable in other languages.  If you have no option but the pure script file, I'll explain to you how to add the language string files.

One of these days I really need to get on the Apple developer program, but this isn't the time still.

Cheers, Edouard

Just a quick question, Steve. Did you try to restore it from Time Machine?

Prefs are fine, the problem is with the application.



Honestly, I think this is Apple's gatekeeper trying to save you from yourself.  Try downloading the file WC AppleScript Tags Processor.scptd and see if you can open that with the Script Editor.  I would expect that to work.  If it does, then save it as an Application on your computer.  Since you made it, it should allow you to run what you created.  I hope that will solve your problem.

Yep, that fixed it. That's what I was thinking was already available in the AS package, as we ran into this a long time ago. Maybe that was one you sent me directly. I still needed to option-open it since it said it wasn't a signed application, but after than it's still running and not bouncing, and seems to be sending the correct data now.

Thanks again, Edouard, for these awesome bits of AppleScript that make WeatherCat so much more capable and flexible! I don't know that I would have been as enthusiastic about WC this long if it hadn't been for the things I can do with your scripts. Thank you!

Phew!

I know these poor scripts are in desperate need of some attention, but this just isn't the time!

Well, your welcome but alas I just cannot seem to keep ahead of all the other things I need to do so long as I have to take care of things outside.  What I really need is for all this El Ni?o hype to turn into a long period of rain.  [rain2]  If I'm stuck in the house, it will be a lot easier to work on these scripts once more!

Cheers, Edouard

Dear WeatherCat fans of my AppleScripts, . . . .

Ever wonder why I can't ever seem to find any time to work on these AppleScripts anymore?

Does this answer your question!



We are headed for the first significant dry spell in a while and guess what shows up looking for dinner!

When it comes to yard work, if I didn't have bad luck I wouldn't have any luck at all . . . . .  [banghead]

Grumble, grumble, grumble . . . . Edouard

Odd problem with WC Storm Monitor (Re: WeatherCat Scripts of 2013-12-01)
« Reply #83 on: May 08, 2016, 11:14:05 PM »
Dear WeatherCat Scripters,

Quite mysteriously, my WC Storm Monitor  AppleScript stopped all reporting.  All Growl notifications, emails, and even log file entries stopped for actual weather events.  That AppleScript uses a single handler for all weather related information displays.  The information for launching and quitting the AppleScript was working fine.  So it seemed likely it was that handler that was to blame.  I noticed that I had forgotten to clear one variable as a "global."  This isn't strictly necessary because AppleScript is a loosely typed language and the variable in question was indeed global - it wasn't declared locally in the handler.

Adding the global declaration caused the handler to start working once more and today we got a 0.01" of rain that the AppleScript now properly reported.  So if anyone is still using this AppleScript and has it mysteriously stop working, let me know - I have the fix.

Cheers, Edouard

Which script is giving error? (Re: WeatherCat Scripts of 2013-12-01)

Dear Randall and WeatherCat scripters,

Which script is giving you a divide by zero error - WC Storm Monitor?   Does it happen when you first launch it or later on?  If you give me a little more info perhaps I can figure out what is going wrong.

Cheers, Edouard
