Troubleshooting

Please try the following steps before reporting an issue

  1. Make sure you have the latest version of the module.
    1. Open a terminal window in the DynamicWeather module folder
    2. cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-DynamicWeather
    3. Pull latest from git
    4. git pull origin master --allow-unrelated-histories
  2. Try to re-install the module (sometimes update doesn't work as intended)
    1. Delete the module folder /MagicMirror/modules/MMM-DynamicWeather
    2. Open a terminal window in the modules folder of MagicMirror and clone.
    3. git clone https://github.com/scottcl88/MMM-DynamicWeather.git
  3. Check your configuration in the config.js file. Check for typos, missing commas, missing required fields. Copy the example from README.
  4. Verify your API key works by going to the link in your browser
    1. https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?appid=API_KEY&id=LOC_ID
    2. You should be able to actually see the weather data
  5. Try disabling other modules to narrow down which one may be causing the issue, including default modules.
  6. Review the MagicMirror post about troubleshooting
    1. https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/86/how-to-troubleshoot
