Connection cannot be established

This is happenning to me too.

I have a same problem. My internet has been down, and after repair, I have notification "Forecast information cannot be fetched. Connection cannot be established." and no refresh weather, from all services

I have the same problem today. Yesterday everithing worked fine.

Having the same issue with Weather Indicator 12.07.30 'Cloudy 10'

even the actual weather data is from days ago. (showing 14° but its 25° outside :/ )

Same issue with 12.07.30 and Ubuntu 12.04 using the PPA. The current weather seems correct, but no forecast. ...cannot be fetched...
When I run it from the terminal I get "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gobject/constants.py:24: Warning: g_boxed_type_register_static: assertion `g_type_from_name (name) == 0' failed
  import gobject._gobject"

Is that related?

Occasionally the program exits on its own too.

Having the same issue, everything else seems to work but the forecast

I guess that forecast works only with Google service that has recently stopped working (or work correctly) :(

PS: indicator has shown correct weather from Yahoo! services

I have the same problem.

Before forecast stopped working, I had another error, I reported the bug 1042171.

ii indicator-weather 11.11.28-0ubuntu1.2

Forecast is still no working...
even with yahoo services...

having this issue with 12.07.30 "cloudy 10", using Yahoo as provider.

Same issue with 11.11.28 'Cloudy 9', using Yahoo as provider.

same problem with my precise pangolin on Asus Eeepc. No forecast.

Same problem with my Ubuntu 12.04 (both Yahoo and Google)

Same problem with Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit with 12.07.30 Cloudy 10

Same problem with the releases Ubuntu 12.04 'cloudy 10?' - (both Yahoo and Google) and Ubuntu 11.10 oneiric (both Yahoo and Google) "Forecast information cannot fetched. Connection cannot be established.

the same problem with Weather Indicator 11.11.28 'Cloudy 9'. I have tried google and yahoo services

Same problem in Ubuntu 11.10 w/ 11.11.28. I miss it. When will this get fixed again? Last time, it got fixed pretty quickly.

Also having this same problem with Ubuntu 12.4 running 11.11.28 'Cloudy 9'
Worked okay then quit.

same here on ubuntu 12.04 gnome-shell and xubuntu 12.04. Recently the weather indicator started to show just 99 C instead of current temperature. With no icons.

Ok, this will never be fixed. I found a other better choice for weather it name is My-Weather-Indicator.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:atareao/indicators && sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install my-weather-indicator

Thank you, Eduardox123. Now I'am using the My-Weather-Indicator too!

The lastest released was on 2011-05-3.

It's time to change...no chances bug be fixed.

There have been commits up until 2012-07-30 on the 2.0 bazaar branch:
https://code.launchpad.net/~roignac/weather-indicator/cloudy

I don't think the indicator-weather project development has been entirely abandoned yet.

A little fishing with Wireshark shows some interesting information. Regardless of which weather souce you choose (Google or Yahoo) the application does a DNS query for www.google.com. On my system the first reply is a IP v6 address. Then I get an IP v4 address resolution. The application then attempts to connect to Google to obtain the weather. Prior posts indicate that Google took down its weather. Google replies via HTTP and returns HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden.

Looks like someone may have attempted to force all connections to Yahoo only to force everything to Google is stopped its weather feed.

did anyone find a solution?

My-Weather-Indicator fails to get weather of any sort. It to uses google weather.

Same problem in 12.07.30 'Cloudy 10' version and with both services: Google and Yahoo.
