NWS Warning Zone ATOM/CAP Feed

[jlmr731]

I ran the check-fetch-times.php because i was seeing long wait times loading index.php and was able to fix that with permissions to cache dir so that all great. but i do see this and not sure where to go to resolve it.

Code: Select all

--checking NWS Warning Zone ATOM/CAP Feed --
Using $SITE['noaazone'] entry for test.
URL: http://alerts.weather.gov/cap/wwaatmget.php?zone=OHZ033
Cache: ./cache/atom-advisory-OHZ033.txt

Skipped cache write test to ./cache/atom-advisory-OHZ033.txt file.
--end NWS Warning Zone ATOM/CAP Feed check --

Now it does write atom-advisory-OHZ033.txt file in the parent dir and if i go to the url it calls for i see an error there http://alerts.weather.gov/cap/wwaatmget.php?zone=OHZ033
Is this just something i did not set up right?

You likely need an update to the support scripts as the NWS has switched to https mode for access to alerts.weather.gov site.

Use check-fetch-times.php?show=versions on your site to show which scripts are not at current levels and get a link to use the updates tool page to get the needed updates.

It would help to have the URL to your weather website .. it is very difficult to diagnose issues when only a description of the problem is available.

Best regards,

Ok there were 2 files out of date get-nnvl-iod.php and radar-status and I updated them and as far as i can tell the rest thats not listed should be fine.
Still get that error
Check out the site here http://youngstownwx.duckdns.org/test there is still stuff todo but want to squash the bugs first.
Thanks for any help and all the time you spent making this.

Looks like I need to update the check-fetch-times.php basic script to be https compatible.. the test for alerts.weather.gov is still using http, not https which is now required. So, for now, just ignore the 301 response for alerts.weather.gov.. that's Akamai's way of saying 'use https' for the access.

The check-fetch-times.php?show=info will display the 'readiness' of the cache (near the bottom of the page) and the status of a few other expected things.

That sounds great and good to find this before they turned http off completely. So I guess anything that comes from NWS/NOAA will be going that way soon.
