Just did a fresh install, then installed the Weather plugin, ok, but not showing in configuration Bindings.  
When I go to Inbox..Choose binding I can see Yahoo Weather and others that I’ve also installed and successfully configured, but no Weather. Did I missed a point in documentation? Thanks. Chris

The weather binding is a 1.x version. And therefore needs to be manually configured through the weather.cfg that should now be in your services folder.  
Read the binding docs…

Ok thanks, just like in this example and reboot?

```auto
apikey.ForecastIo=sdf7g69fdgdfg679dfg69sdgkj
location.home.latitude=47.8011
location.home.longitude=13.0448
location.home.provider=ForecastIo

```

Yes, alomost

That’s mine:

```auto
# The apikey for the different weather providers, at least one must be specified
# Note: Hamweather requires two apikeys: client_id=apikey, client_secret=apikey2
apikey.ForecastIo=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
#apikey.OpenWeatherMap=
#apikey.WorldWeatherOnline=
#apikey.Wunderground=
#apikey.Hamweather=
#apikey2.Hamweather=
#apikey.Meteoblue=

# location configuration, you can specify multiple locations
location.home.name=home
location.home.latitude=xx.xxxxx
location.home.longitude=xx.xxxxxx
#location.<locationId1>.woeid= (required for Yahoo provider)
location.home.provider=ForecastIo
location.home.language=en
location.home.updateInterval=15
#location.home.units=uk2

```

Hide your api key… and you location… I know where you live… 😄

Thanks for the advice, these were just the values of the [example](https://www.openhab.org/addons/bindings/weather1/#binding-configuration)!

Anyway, thanks for your answer, will try this.
