Crashes after I configure

[Joeman1]

Hello,

I tried to look at the current bugs to see if this fell into any of them, and I though I found one, but it doesnt appear to be relevant to the version I am using.

I can launch my-weather-indicator and the configuration screen comes up fine. After I configure the app, and click ok, it simply disappears and does not run.

After this, I cannot launch it again unless I delete the config file in .config/my-weather-indicator.

Here is the error from the command line:

Please let me know if you need more information.

Thanks!

Not so much "crash after configure" for me. I've not touched the configuration since install of Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit back in April 2014. I simply turned on the computer and the indicator just didn't come up. Running via the terminal I see the same dump as that above.

I also removed the .conf file, restarted, the preferences dialog comes up, I hit save, and get another dump of different error messages, finishing with the dump above.

You can clear the configuration with the following command:

rm ~/.config/my-weather-indicator/my-weather-indicator.conf

After attempting to reconfigure several times, I was able to get it working by changing the weather service from Open Weather Map to Yahoo.

Hi Bernmeister,

Yeah, I noticed it too on an already existing setup also. Try John's fix to see if that works - for now.

Maybe the author/developer can chime in and let us know when its going to be fixed for good.

Thanks!
Joe
