Error 401 Unauthorized

[aldobelus0]

When I try to configure the place, in the box where we have to insert the ID, or the place, or its name, or the longitude and latitude, no matter what I insert of this options, it responds with

Error 401 Unauthorized
Intentelo de nuevo más tarde

(try again later, in english)

What should I do? Is there a way to solve this behavior?

Hello

Check if you have the latest version and try then to create à personal openweathermap key from the settings dialogue

[aldobelus0]

I've installed the version on my system, Ubuntu 20.04. This should do the trick, isn't it?

[dglent]

I don't know which version of the meteo-qt Ubuntu offerts.
Check with right click > About
But in any case it is better to have à personal key...

I repeat that, when I arrive to the settings place, where you can read: "Start typing the city or the ID or the geographic coordinates "latitude, longitude", I can do anyone of those and the result is always the same:

Error 401 Unauthorized

About your question, the version is 1.5, if I'm no mistaken.

The key has no sense at this step of the setting, because it must be included on other part of the program. Before to set the OpenWeather key, you have to determine where is your location, and this is impossible so far because of the problem related above.

Latest version is 3.2

I don't remember if there was à specific fix for this error message since the version 1.5

However you cannot contact openweathermap to search for the city because thé default key of the version 1.5 is invalid now.
So, create a key, add it in the settings, wait à few minutes to be activated by openweathermap and then try again it should work

Check the changelog from version 1.5 to 3.2 here:

https://github.com/dglent/meteo-qt/releases

You can also download the latest version from here, unzip and then run python meteo_qt.py or install with python setup.py install
(python 3)

I already did that. It didn't work. In fact, I told you I already did it. It's shown in this image.

I will try to install other version, more updated.

[dglent]

This is impossible.
You need a key first in order to add a city
And if the key is invalid you will have the 401 Unauthorized error.

Try to open the following url with your key (replace the xxx with your key - don't show your key, keep it private):

https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?id=3035639&mode=xml&units=metric&APPID=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I have a key for a free subscription.
It seems
Fetching url for 6 days => unauthorized
Fetching url for actual weather => works
Fetching url for forecast of the day + 4:=> works
DEBUG: OneCall URL: I think fails

and then it repeatedly tries every minute or so.
and it never shows the applet.

Is there a way to make the py script query just for the actual weather?

[dglent]

You use a personal created key or the key present already in meteo-qt ?
