BIT keeps erroring and stops updating Wunderground

[erkme73]

I've had this error pop up randomly over the last year or so. It's been quite intermittent, and not annoying enough to post about it until recently.

When it happens, BIT remains up and reactive, but none of the weather operations and buttons function. I stead it says "waiting for Wunderground" indefinitely and none of the buttons react (ie Pressing update, report, etc toggles the button but nothing happens).

The usual fix is to end task on BIT (pressing x to close it does nothing) and restart the app. But lately the error returns immediately.

Any help would be appreciated!

This is a known bug that just started happening and will be fixed in the next version of BIT this week.

Ah, thank you @Mike. I didn't search (as is probably obvious) for the issue, but did scan the latest threads. I should have checked more thoroughly.

No worries, thanks for the bug report.

I thought WU was dropping the external api function.

Locked up three times in the past 24 hours. Shut it down until fix is released.

On my gen4 i7, it is using 15% CPU when it crashes. Just an FYI.

@fenderman - could you either close this thread, or combine it with the BIT thread over here? It was a goof for me to start a new thread when there was active discussion about this issue on the main post, and it'd probably help to consolidate these complaints/concerns/questions in a place where Mike doesn't have to monitor a bunch of threads or post the same thing several times....
