Openhab2 Weather binding not working

Rainer_Waldmann · January 27, 2017, 7:16pm

I’m struggling since quite a while with the weather binding.
I don’t see any errors in the openhab b4 (binding-weather1 - 1.9.0.b5) weather.cfg but I don’t manage to get it working. I tried several providers, webview , items. Always the same mess (see logs and weather.cfg below).
I don’t have any idea on wat screws here.

Weather as webview kicks out a

HTTP ERROR 500
Problem accessing /weather. Reason:

Items using the weather bindings remain also NULL

Delete your /var/lib/openhab2/config/org/openhab/weather.config and try with only 1 location in your /etc/openhab2/services/weather.cfg (fix .cfg, then delete .config)

Check also if you have listed the weather binding in your /etc/openhab2/services/addons.cfg : binding = weather1 (you need to add the 1)

Also, it wouldn’t hurt to uninstall the Weather binding and to re-install it…

Example from my weather.cfg:

apikey.Wunderground=xyz
location.HomeR.name=HomeR
location.HomeR.latitude=44.x
location.HomeR.longitude=26.y
location.HomeR.provider=Wunderground
location.HomeR.language=en
location.HomeR.updateInterval=10

Test things out with 1, then add more step by step to see if everything works ok

Here is my weather.items file also:

I tried it
removed everything but HamWeather cfg from weather.cfg
deleted weather.config
restarted opehab

→ STILL THE SAME ERRORS

I don’t know what could be wrong… Your configs look good…

I would try re-installing the binding and if this doesn’t work… upgrade openHAB 2 to the Stable Release (2.0.0)

I ran into the same problem. The error message “Disabling weather locationId ‘homeHamWeather’, no binding available” is not very good, can confuse you.
Solution is very easy. If you have no items configured related to the weather config, the binding will be disabled, because not needed Just configure one item and you will see, the binding works and is enabled automatically.

I have had a similar issue. Config looks find and also log message Weather locationId ‘xxx’ does not exist on openhab 2.1.
Uninstalling and reinstalling the weather binding did the trick for me. Thanks for the tip.
