Conky script Pushing Back sh: 1: Bad Substitution Error

[Myst1234]

Hey guys, sorry for the delayed response, have not had a chance to work on this conky til now.

I removed the suggested section and it did fix it. However I am now getting this -

wget: no process found

Everything looks good until the end. I looked inside the 1d_accuwether_rss folder and there is indeed a weather file, but obviously it's not being picked up.
This leaves the first part running fine, but no weather data, not even pretend weather data, and the xml file reports everything fine as well.

looks like you still have $Home in place of $HOME in your 'sed' expressions - $Home is expanding to nothing so instead of /home/r/1d_accuwether_rss/weather its is trying to find /1d_accuwether_rss/weather - try

echo $HOME
echo $Home

see the difference?

Hello again,
I'm assuming you are using Teo's scripts from here;

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=139962

If so, you may want to download the files again. Since there was one error already, there could possibly be others (especially if you copied and pasted from someone else's script). Or at least compare your file with Teo's original file. It's been awhile since I used his scripts, but I do remember that I had to create a few of the empty text files because, for some reason, the scripts didn't do it automatically.

Hmm, I just remembered that I also had to change all of the file paths, with search and replace in gedit, from Teo's file path to mine. Also the ~/ shortcut didn't work either, I had to put in the entire file path.

Just some things to check, I don't know if that is the problem with yours or not.

edit-- steeldriver posted as I was typing, and that could very well be the problem also.

This made a huge difference!

Hello again,
I'm assuming you are using Teo's scripts from here.

I was an you were right, I needed to double and triple check the scripts

[Myst1234]

Ok so final thing -

Thanks for the help everyone, I've got it working so far. Last thing is the weather script should be 3 days (including the current day) but it is only showing 2 including the current. Where did I mess up on that?

everything above has been edited with you guys help, and is currently what is working minus the 3rd day in the forecast.


p.s. anyone interested in using the script above feel free. The setup is as follows -

create a Conky dir in your home dir
in the conky dir create a file called conkymain and copy and paste the first script into it
create a 1d_accuweather_rss dir in your home dir
in the 1d_accuweather_rss dir create a file called 1d, copy and paste the second script into it
run your conky with

conky -c ~/Conky/conkymain

Hi again,
Sorry for not getting back sooner. Check the file at;
HOME/1d_accuweather_rss/weather

and compare it to the accuweather extended forecast page. Find the lines that match the third day forecast. If I'm correct then the first four lines under TEXT in your rc file are
for current conditions, the second four lines are for the first day, and the third four are for the second day. Which means you don't have the third day in there. If the file follows
the pattern for line numbers, the it should be on lines 9,10 and 11. If that matches then you need to add;

${execi 600  sed -n '9p' $HOME/1d_accuweather_rss/weather} 
${font conkyweather:size=30}${execpi 600  sed -n '11p' $HOME/1d_accuweather_rss/weather}${font}${goto 75}${voffset -25}${execpi 600 sed -n '4p' $HOME/1d_accuweather_rss/weather|cut -c1-20}
${goto 75}${execpi 600 sed -n '10p' $HOME/1d_accuweather_rss/weather|cut -c21-40} 
${goto 75}${execpi 600 sed -n '10p' $HOME/1d_accuweather_rss/weather|cut -c41-60}

after the third weather section in your rc. If those lines don't match, then change the;

'10p'

to whichever line numbers you need. For example:

sed -n '9p'

is telling conky to read line 9 of that file, and the:

cut -c41-60

is telling it to only display the 41st through the 60th characters in that line.

I have to go to work now, but post back if you have any questions/problems and attach a screenshot of your weather section and I will do my best to help when I get home. Good luck

[Myst1234]

Sorry I'm a bit confused, I understand the code better now, but where am I looking for the correlation?

In the weather file, it is nothing but the output of the 1d executable file. Which I assume the conky reads and displays. Not sure where I'm looking for the lines that would or wouldn't display a third day.

[stylintile]

Okay, I tried to download the scripts from the link above, but got a 404 error. So, if you could start your conky and then copy the weather file at HOME/1d_accuweather_rss/weather and paste it here, I'll see if it will do what you want

[Myst1234]

This is the HOME/1d_accuweather_rss/weather file

Currently: Cloudy: 76F 
e
6/10/2013 Forecast
High: 77 F Low: 59 F Clouds breaking for some sun 
c
6/11/2013 Forecast
High: 85 F Low: 66 F Partly sunny and warmer 
c

I figured this was the file the conky was displaying, because it changes each day the 1d file is executed. I suppose it could change each time it is run, if the weather from accuweather were to change.

EDIT: I just ran it again and it changed ever so slightly

Currently: Clear: 68F 
A
6/10/2013 Forecast
High: 77 F Low: 59 F Clouds and limited sun 
d
6/11/2013 Forecast
High: 85 F Low: 66 F Partly sunny and warmer 
c
