Thanks folks - Randall, I'm guessing it's been running since last month so you have all the cached data from last month and the live data for this month loaded. Either just leave it, or restart it to clear out the cache.

It seems that all of the Additional Services are broken after the upgrade.  PWS, Open Weather Map, Weatherbug, and WeatherCloud were all working in the previous version but are now "Disabled" and will not save the password.  If I input the password and leave the box it clears it out...so i cannot start the service.  The service states are all "Disabled".

Ok, I restarted WeatherCat and the passwords were now in the boxes but the services were all stopped.  I was able to start them and they appear to be working, other than Weatherbug which reports Server Busy/Unavailable.

I just checked them all from my station (running the latest v2.1.0 B1306) and noted no problems except for OpenWeatherMap which claims I haven't reported since 3 April. I'll have to look into that to see if I was bitten by the same password bug. Quite frankly, I haven't monitored my feed to those services for months so thanks for the heads up.

Out of memory Randall - it aborted trying to process an image during custom web processing. If you can email me your WeatherCat prefs file and anything else you're running (Applescripts for example), I'll set it up here to see if I can reproduce it.

(Note for future reference - post bugs/issues in the bugs forum, I don't monitor these release threads, thanks).

How about the "Feature Requests" area, is that monitored?

I've got one from 12 February unacknowledged and there's one by Edouard and a couple other member requests right in that same timeframe that appear not to have been read.

Yep, that's my favourite area  :)

I try to answer everything there, either to accept it onto the list or to get more information if needed (or reject it - although that's pretty rare). But it is possible I'll miss them (especially if on holiday or otherwise occupied for example) - just bump it if it looks like I've missed your request.

Thanks for the heads-up  [tup]
