YoWindow Forum

Dear friends,

Thanks for any help you can give.

I've installed YoWiindow on my PC running Windows XP, updated to the lates stage, and WeatherLinkversion 5.9.2 from Davis Software.

I want to get info from my personal weather station into YoWindow. I followed the instructions to download YoWindow_us.htx. Instead of getting a file, as I expected, I got HTML (?) code instead. I pasted that code into a text editor and saved the file as yowindow.htx.

I then set up WeatherLink as described in the instructions. I feel sure the path is correct in the Davis application because a file entitled yowindow.xml has been created.

When WeatherLink tries to download the information to YoWindow I get the error message: "Error connecting to the FTP server. (87)".

I'm also running Norton 360.

Tonight, following Pasha'a suggestion, after removing the htx and xml files from the folder, I downloaded the YoWindow_us.htx file by right clicking it and saved it as a target with the name yowindow.htx.

That also generated an error in WeatherLink so I went back to the original file, as it did not create an xml file.

I disabled my firewall in Norton and got the same error message: (87)

I don't know what to do.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Brad

Hello Brad,

You want to use the weather data in YoWindow on your own PC ?
In that case you would not need to get an ftp-connection just a file copy/save process.

Alternatively point YoWindow to the place where WeatherLink creates the yowindow.xml file and it should work.

good luck,
nico

Dear Friends,

I would like to help me because i can not find the yowindow file.htx.
When I’m clicking on to download I see an empty page.

Thank you very much!
