Weather Data use

demandzm · 2017-02-27T00:05:30.907Z

You need the weather app. I don’t know if it is still on the carousel, but you can download here:

https://archive.outernet.is/images/Weather/

Upload it to your opaks folder and it should extract and install. Then as long as you have all the weather data needed the app should automatically run when you open the weather folder in librarian.

How can I upload it to opaks folder ?

demandzm · 2017-02-27T07:04:41.669Z

using an ftp software like FileZilla. I don’t remember if there is a way to upload using the librarian interface, I only used it for about a week.

Can’t I do it with Windows explorer as normal usb stick with rxOS folders?

kalattar · 2017-02-27T07:31:37.350Z

in the user manual it says as image below but it i can’t move the data from the usb stick to Raspberry sd card.

You can use windows explorer. Type this into windows explorer address bar: ftp:/"ip of raspberry pi"
without quotes. Then right click, login as, use your outernet login. You should then be able to drag and drop the file into the opaks folder.

it says there is no enough permission.

demandzm · 2017-02-27T08:01:40.363Z

kalattar · 2017-02-27T08:51:53.948Z

I meant the message telling you that you don’t have permissions to access ftp.

kalattar · 2017-02-27T11:12:27.029Z

unfortunately, it doesn’t appear anymore !!

demandzm · 2017-02-27T11:17:51.684Z

Good, does that mean it is working?

kalattar · 2017-02-27T11:26:51.758Z

The FTP on the Librarian is specifically “Read Only” as it says in the top screenshot, thus you can write a file like that.
I think you will have to log in using ssh and then put the file there…

demandzm · 2017-02-27T11:50:24.038Z

I didn’t know that, I only used Librarian for about a week and never had to use ftp.

kalattar · 2017-02-28T11:46:07.197Z

Aren’t there any other option?

pe1chl · 2017-02-28T16:53:41.134Z

Yes you can use scp.
That works fine when using the outernet user and password and the proper destination directory.
Logon via ssh first to explore the system and see where to put things.
(normally /mnt/downloads is the location you want)

I have found a very easy way to FTP into the Outernet foders. This is my solution to my setup, but others may find it usefull. I am running the standard Patch/LNA/SDR into a Raspberry Pi3 and am using a Raspberry Pi3 to connect into the Outnet server. With my “Desktop PI” I connect to the Outernet Hotspot. Open File Manager" with the “File to be uploaded” folder. Open a second “File Manager” and in the location bar, type in the FTP port, ie “FTP://10.0.01:21”. Sign into Outernet, and navigate the second “File Manager” to the destination folder. Drag and Drop from the first to the second. Close out all windwos and connections. You MUST reboot the Outernet server for it to reindex the file otherways you will get a “Critical File Error”. Weather Nullschool display runs like a champ, though there is no time stamp on it.

I hope this helps, and “SHOULD” work across platforms…
