Re: xAP Weather Type Mismatch Error

Hi James,

I have been running this for a number of weeks now and I get about 2-
3 outages a week from the BBC site. I think the reason this worked OK
before my rebuild was that I was using a different (incorrect)
station id. I think you would only need to leave xAPWeather running
for a week using world=4130 to replicate the problem. It would be
really good if you could catch this error as my xAPWeather runs on an
unattended server in the loft and I have to keep checking :(

Rgds, Darren.
