Yes, I agree.

Although most have switched to the MyForecast script, I haven't given up yet.
I just tried the command which works here, only the user agent is moved to the headers.

Paris, France:

$ wget --ignore-length --force-html --header="Referer: https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/" --header="User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0" "https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/france/paris"

I got the  paris  file in HOME.
I opened it with a text editor and all the necessary data is there.

Try it guys.
If it works, we can easily modify the TAD script.

Try adding more to the  wget  command, but in the same form as Referer:

--header="Referer: https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/"

Example:

wget --ignore-length --force-html --header="Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8" --header="Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.9" --header="Connection: keep-alive" --header="Referer: https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/" --header="User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0" "https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/france/paris"

This also works (for me):

$ wget --ignore-length --force-html --header="Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8" --header="Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.9" --header="Connection: keep-alive" --header="Referer: https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/" --header="User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0" "https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/france/paris"

Re: Conky Weather TAD script

@loutch

Finally.

Open the  tad  script with a text editor and replace commands:

For weather_raw:

wget -O "$HOME/time_and_date_conky_script/weather_raw" --ignore-length --force-html --header="Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8" --header="Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.9" --header="Connection: keep-alive" --header="Referer: https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/" --header="User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0" "$address"

For date_raw:

wget -O "$HOME/time_and_date_conky_script/date_raw" --ignore-length --force-html --header="Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8" --header="Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.9" --header="Connection: keep-alive" --header="Referer: https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/" --header="User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0" "$address/ext"

It finally works again.  Except for the "date" file of course, which is no longer generated and can't be referenced by conkies.

Let's see how the script runs for the rest of the week.

Thanks, marens.

That file was removed five months ago:

The file "date" is part of the TAD script and works fine:

No, I'm referring to the "date" file.  I kept getting an empty file with no info.  But I checked the script more carefully when you said your date file was fine.

Turns out there was a typo in this line:

cat $HOME/time_and_date_conky_script/date-raw | grep -o '[,^]"ds":"[^"]*' | sed 's/,"ds":"//g' | sed 's/\.//g' | sed -n '1,7p' > $HOME/time_and_date_conky_script/date

the "cat $HOME/time_and_date_conky_script/date-raw" shows a hyphen instead of an underscore before the "raw".  Once I corrected it, it works again.

I'm just puzzled how I got the hyphen, since I always copy and paste the exact lines from your forum posts.

Yes, typo.
The script has just been fixed (updated):
https://forums.bunsenlabs.org/viewtopic … 76#p147776

Thanks for catching it.

EDIT
More details:
The new wget command downloads data to the file  $HOME/time_and_date_conky_script/date_raw.
The curl command was downloading data to the file  $HOME/time_and_date_conky_script/date-raw.

I fixed it here when the TAD script wasn't working properly for others and I forgot about it.
