Michel30 had a similar issues with cron already existing but apparently not 100% compatible.
So try this:
1. remove cron: opkg remove cron
2. install our cron version: opkg install cron_3.0pl1-r8_qb2.ipk
3. remove buienradar via ToonStore
4. install buienradar via ToonStore

Hello,
Yes that is fine, now just install buienradar.
The cron will properly not work because there is an issue of missing file.
I add this file manual but it was not fill up with conjobs.
Marcel will look at it.
Regards,
Michel

Hi all,
some additional info on the refresh rate of the buienradar data:
- every 5 minutes the weatherstation data, the rain prediction data and the big and small buienradar images are updated (e.g. 14.05, 14.10 etc)
- other images like muggenradar, bbq radar etc are retrieved only at 2 minutes after every hour (e.g. 14.02, 15.02 etc)
If you want higher refresh rates you can change the schedule in crontab
Next weekend I plan to post a small update which stores the collected data in the volatile RAM memory instead of the flash memory.
Kind regardz,
Toonz

@Toonz
Could you please provide us how your crontab file looks like.
It looks that I lost all the information like carbage collector etc when I typte > crontab -e there is no crontab file with information.
My Buienradar is not refreshing.
Thanks.

You should at least have this:
(this is generated on a toon with no crontab prior to installation of buienradar)
Code: Select all
# crontab for root
# The time and date fields are:
#
# field allowed values
# ----- --------------
# minute 0-59
# hour 0-23
# day of month 1-31
# month 1-12 (or names, see below)
# day of week 0-7 (0 or 7 is Sunday, or use names)
#
SHELL=/bin/sh
*/5 * * * * /root/bin/buienradar_get_data_5min.sh
2 */1 * * * /root/bin/buienradar_get_data_hourly.sh
After installing this file (root/crontab)
run:
and the contents will end up in the actual crontab file:
/var/cron/tabs/root
Then restart the cron daemon:
And the updates should work.

I am lost, sorry. Buienradar is not working anymore. I see a lot options, thats to much for me. Can I aspect there will come an update for the Toonstore and Buienradar that solve the problems that have arisen after the update. I unstalled Buienrader and did a reinstall. The inbox says I installed the latest version of Buienradar but no Buienradar on my Toon. Even the regular Weer-app and the traffic app are not working anymore.

Same problem here: Toonstore lists the new Buienradar app as available. Installation starts, Toon restarts, but there is no new Buienradar app. Tried to update and reinstall it but it would not install trought the store.

@marcelr
Thanks, this helps
one file did not had the option read that why it was not updating the buienradar.
At all, first install crontab manual do an vi /var/cron/tabs/root and save the file
Do a chmod 775 /var/cron/tabs/root and after that install buienradar manual.

Thanks but my technical knowledge is a bit limited on this. That's why I'm very happy with the Toon Store
I know how to acces Toon via WinSCP. But where to put the cron IPK file? And how can I start the installation proces?
Merry Xmas and thanks in advance!

Just drop it in /root (that's where you end up at login).
Then install with
Code: Select all
opkg install cron_3.0pl1-r8_qb2.ipk
Now install buienradar:
Code: Select all
opkg install buienradar_8.2.1-r0_qb2.ipk
That should do it.
(or use the toonstore for buienradar)

Ok - after the installation of cron & installing buienradar I thought I was done too. Turned out buienradar didn't update, so I manually added the two scripts as listed a few posts above.
Now when I run the 5-minute script manually, I get an error message that the longitude/latitude files do not exist:
Code: Select all
100 76378 100 76378 0 0 201k 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 229k
./buienradar_get_data_5min.sh: line 18: can't open /qmf/qml/apps/buienradar/selectedLatitude.txt: no such file
./buienradar_get_data_5min.sh: line 19: can't open /qmf/qml/apps/buienradar/selectedLongitude.txt: no such file
% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current
These two files indeed are not there. I have selected a weatherstation in the app, and the file 'selectedstation.txt' also exists and contains a value.
Any reasons to be concerned? Should I manually add these to files?
