EDIT...maybe this will help.
I'm running a calc 1.7 RC 21043 kitchen rom with 6.1 no manilla and spb ms 3 installed not cooked in.

Thanks for the info. Question: Do you run Mobiler or some other remote PPC controler from your PC? If so, I'm wondering if you could try this:
  1. From the PC viewer, navigate to the WP-Activate folder
  2. Double-click cecmd.exe
  3. Press F2, Down, Down, Enter
Does a dialog titled "Select/Unselect files" open?

The inject script that's failing looks like this:

Code:

    # select the widgets.xml file
    SendSpecial( "F2" )
    Sleep( 750 )
    SendSpecial( "Down" )
    Sleep( 750 )
    SendSpecial( "Down" )
    Sleep( 750 )
    SendSpecial( "CR" )
    Sleep( 750 )
    WaitForActive( "Select/Unselect files", 5 )
    Sleep( 750 )
    SendKeys( "Select/Unselect files", "widgets.xml" )
    Sleep( 750 )
    SendSpecial( "Tab" )
    Sleep( 750 )
    SendSpecial( "CR" )
    Sleep( 750 )

I don't run anything like that. I can though if it will help. Obviously you know that 219 error has the select unselect error (something about 5 items).

I'm really reaching here... :scratch:

Here's a video of what the widget injection process is supposed to look like. Maybe someone can describe what's different :)

"(something about 5 items)"

Hmmm... Anyway you could post a screenshot of that error?

btw - if you hook-up to your pc very often, check out My Mobiler - that's how I captured that video in the previous post...

I see the issue. Using the version of total commander that I have preinstalled on NSFFans Rom you have to press the down button an extra time to select anything on the menus. So when your program is telling it to go down in the show menu and select "Select/unselect files" it is instead selecting "adjust/sort tabs" This is causeing the error.

Tuffgong4 05-12-2009 10:40 PM

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 
Something seems different. I have the menu enhancement installed so it defaults to sort tabs instead of select unselect...could you automate it three down in the menu instead of two?


EDIT ^^^^^ what i meant was the same as above!

Yea - that's the pattern that the others are seeing also.

This is what I know so far: It seems that the people who are having trouble are those that already have Total Commander installed.

There was talk of a "menu enhancement". Do you recall any add-ons or enhancements to your Total Commander? (I haven't heard back from the others yet)

Thanks...

here is the screen shot of the menu enhancement in total commander. I think we need the 3rd one down as opposed to the second one down during the automation.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 
I just went through all the steps to install this & everything worked fine until the final step.

I get all the WP selections under "add widget", but when I select any of them nothing happens -it does not add the WP icon to the lifestyle screen?? I tried all the different WP selections & none of them work (my PhatPhinger weather panel program works fine from a 2nd today screen).

Did I miss a step or do something wrong??

Storyr,

Figured out the issue in my situation. Additionally, I feel it may the same a few others have experienced. After reading someone make a comment about their "menu enhancement" and then running your slowed down script, I determined the problem was when the files are selected.

I had installed "francarl FingerMenu" ( http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...399#post726399 ) a while back. It replaces most all of the system menus with larger, more finger friendly menus. It seems as though it may change the order of some of the menu items as well which is what was causing the failure on the file selection step.

I disabled FingerMenu, reran everything, and it worked flawlessly. Below for either your, or anyone's use is a video demonstrating how the injection should run when run correctly.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZ8RQeYsRuQ

Hope this helps with some of you out there experiencing problems with the injection.

I don't believe that would work for my particular issue because I'm using the menu enhancement and I don't think I could just disable it since it is cooked into my rom. I think (but could be wrong) that fingermenu and menu enhancement are two different things.

You could perhaps try killing the exe process for it using an advanced task manager that shows all the running processes, including background processes. Once you have the process killed, try the injection script, then your process for the menu enhancement would come right back after a soft reset.

Storyr,

I don't have Total Commander installed, but still get an error at Line 305.

BTW, thanks for your continued work with WP. About every 2 months I start looking at other weather apps, but always come back to WP after a few days.

Personally I use SOTI Pocket Controller to work with my phone while it's connected to my PC. Makes it much easier using a fullsize keyboard and mouse. It has an advanced task manager built into it.

I'll do some looking around if I have time to see if I can find a more stand alone task/process manager.

I was also having the zip error - and I had WP-Activate installed on my storage card. I uninstalled it and re-installed it on the device itself - and now it works!

I do have one minor issue in that it does display the current temp in degrees C not F. How do I change that?

Coucher 05-13-2009 10:22 AM

Here's a simple freeware task/process manager. It's in zip format and is just simply an EXE that you need to run from your device. No install.

Did you exit Mobile Shell, the restart it? (or, alternatively, soft reset)

Nice video! Well, we're certainly getting closer to a solution. Here's what the vanilla Total Commander menus look like. Perhaps someone with the issue could start TC post what there's look like:

The widget reads the WeatherPanel setting for units and displays accordingly. You'll need to go into you WeatherPanel settings and change the units there:

deleted pictures so they dont take up too much space :)


my menu enhancement has the same layout structure as the vanilla TCommander menu layout if that helps at all.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 
Fixed my first problem but ran in to another error. I watched the gif you posted Storyr and then went to # select the widgets.xml file
SendSpecial( "F2" )
Sleep( 750 )
SendSpecial( "Down" )
Sleep( 750 )
SendSpecial( "Down" )
Sleep( 750 )
SendSpecial( "Down" )
Sleep( 750 )
SendSpecial( "CR" )
Sleep( 750 )
WaitForActive( "Select/Unselect files", 5 )
Sleep( 750 )
SendKeys( "Select/Unselect files", "widgets.xml" )
Sleep( 750 )
SendSpecial( "Tab" )
Sleep( 750 )
SendSpecial( "CR" )
Sleep( 750 )

in this document I added another

SendSpecial( "Down" )
Sleep( 750 )

and it got past the error I was getting but the next step for unzip got an error now...

progress maybe??

seems that menu enhancement needs the first option counted as well
and I get a lot further but now I get this error in the image and now a problem with line 311

probably has to do with selections to zip the file.

All I can think of is to reinstall WP-Activate and redo each step.

The CAB installs the registry entries, and the Inject installs the xml for the widgets. These are the two things required for a widget to work in MS.

1. Make sure WeatherPanel is running in your Today screen
2. It won't work with a default WeatherPanel layout - you must use something like PhatPhinger.
3. If that doesn't work, try exiting MS the restarting.
