ianboag Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 Pretty close!!Thats the fastest fix I've ever seen...Thanks Ian But it isn't a fix - that was just as it is. Go figure. Tell me a bit more about your computer and browser configuration .... I'm in Tassie in a couple of weeks so could check out if the Net is a bit strange in some places :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracktop Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I also regularly see wrong bits, but it usually stands as being quite wrong. Love and use it daily anyway. I'll post next time I see one if you like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianboag Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 OK. It's probably a bit easier for me to keep on top of things if you post errors and/or strange bits to me at [email protected]. IB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Ian Would it not be better to post all errors etc here so others are aware of them and what the solution is or when a fix is applied. With something so important when it comes to flying as the weather if a pilot isn't aware of an issue with the app it could be detrimental - just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With something so important when it comes to flying as the weather if a pilot isn't aware of an issue with the app it could be detrimental - just a thought Whatever. I don't mind. It's a bit more of a mission for me to reply to stuff here rather than in my normal email what with login/navigate to forum etc. Hardly a deal breaker though. For what it's worth, anyone notifying a bug (and I welcome such notifications) should paste in the original and the error as soon as it crops up so I can look at the problem before the forecast changes.

ianboag Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 In looking at this last reported problem I discovered that the last area requested was being listed twice with the second time including some error messages. Fixed ..... My problem with finding bugs on this site is that the weather I look up for me is of course the Kiwi stuff - I just check this one occasionally, so I depend on people pointing out bugs to me.

With something so important when it comes to flying as the weather if a pilot isn't aware of an issue with the app it could be detrimental - just a thought Hi This is the type of error I was referring to. I have emailed Ian as well to help in his possible fault location - but then it is earlyish.

ianboag Posted March 6, 2010 Author Share Posted March 6, 2010 Hurricane ....... METAR TTF SPECI Oops. I don't think I'd seen a METAR that was also a TTF and a SPECI before, so the program started decoding one group too early and figured that the UTC time was actually a wind :-( ..... note that it did correctly decode the wind group that followed. Sorry about all that - will fix sometime soon. IB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emaroo Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Having trouble with Avmet I am once again having trouble tying to access the Avmet site. Has the address change again. I am using www.pemet.com.au/ Can anyone help. Cheers Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianboag Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 Ugh www.pemet.com.au/[/url] Can anyone help. Cheers Rick No the address has not changed. I´m in Cuzco (Peru) heading for Macchu Picchu and it´s Sunday in NZ so noone is in the office in NZ. It would appear that the server PC has fallen over. I suppose I should host the thing with a real ISP that isn´t subject to these outages. Sorry :-( IB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianboag Posted July 21, 2010 Author Share Posted July 21, 2010 It's alive again. Someone went into the office and rebooted the server. I'm still in Southern Peru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
