Hi,
I just bought my plug and make kit and I want to import the Weather Report template.
Every time I try to import I get the same generic error on step 2(compiling sketch):
Template upload failed.
I have no clue what to do or what is wrong. I'd really appreciate some help
Not many members here will know what that is so please post a link to it.
Also we will need to see your code so post it please.
Finally we need to see how things are wired up so please post a schematic.
I haven't written any code myself yet.
do you need a schematic of the arduino itself?
Mike, It's an official Arduino kit: store.arduino.cc/products/plug-and-make-kit.
The template that d2v5d is trying to use is to be found at app.arduino.cc/templates/weather-report.
OK, I have reached https://app.arduino.cc/templates/weather-report
There is a button
When I hover over it I get this message
I fear that most users here will be in no better position than me to provide help
I've got a 'Plug and Make Kit'.
I 'll see if the template works for me.
can you share a screenshot of the error you get while importing the template?
I've tried multiple times now, using both the OTA and the connect by cable methods.
I get the same error message as d2v5d, when using OTA, or a very similar one when using a cable:
I've had some limited success.
I went to my Arduino Cloud Sketches at https://app.arduino.cc/sketches
There I found that 2 new sketches had appeared: Weather_Report_aug21a and Weather_Report_aug21b
Weather_Report_aug21b had 3 tabs:
Weather_Report_aug21b.ino, thingProperties.h and Sketch Secrets.
Weather_Report_aug21a only had 2 tabs. Sketch Secrets was missing.
So I concentrated on Weather_Report_aug21b.
When I inspected 'Sketch Secrets' it did not look like the 'Sketch Secrets' that I had seen in other working sketches.
This is what it should have have looked like:
I clicked on the 'ADD NEW' button and manually entered the correct details:
When I tried to compile the code, there were errors.
Unfortunately I don't have a screenshot with the errors on, or the error message itself.
Here is the code that was created:

I commented out the second definition and retried the compiling.
Success at last:
Now I have the following Dashboard:
I've got a nice new dashboard, but it does not get populated with any data.
I don't know whether the errors that the Arduino Cloud introduced were peculiar to me , or whether @d2v5d will have exactly the same faults.
@mario-r , I don't think that someone new to Arduino would stand any chance of finding the errors that i did.
I've re-created the errors, here is the error report:

You have two options:
The required and available available are listed on the section of the page under that tooltip:
I can't see for certain because the tooltip is partially covering the information, but it appears the reason you were unable to use the Template is because you have used up your plan's allocation of Things. When you use the Template, it automatically creates a Thing. So if you deleted one of your existing Things, you would then be able to use the Template.
You can see the list of your existing Things here:
Hi, there were errors in the callback declaration in the template .ino file. A new version that fixes the problem has just been released. Please retry.
Thank you, mirkocurtolo.
It compiled for me.
Would you like to retry now, @d2v5d .
My Arduino Uno R4 WiFi now connects to the WiFi network.
I see the following on the Serial Monitor:

The Uno is shown as being online:
I've now got the following dashboard:
I can manually set the latitude and longitude, and the marker goes to that location after approximately 30s.
I can manually adjust the date ant time on the scheduler, but can't find out how to change the 'America/New_York' to anything else.
However I don't see anything weather related.
The Uno R4 WiFi LED matrix is off, the modulino pixels are all off, the modulino knob has no effect.
What do I need to do to get some weather information?
Are there instructions on how to use the 'Weather Report' Thing?
I don’t know what this template is supposed to do either. I see adding some logs that the sketch fetches info and among them there are temperature related info, but they are not sent to the cloud or displayed locally.
The result of the fetch goes in
double temperatureMax[numOfForecasts];
double temperatureMin[numOfForecasts];
So I image you can still modify the sketch to send them to the cloud and dispay them on a dashboard.
[update]: they told me that this template is part of a lesson you can follow here: https://courses.arduino.cc/plugandmake/lessons/project-weather-report/
later in the lesson is explained how to add and handle weather info
mirkocurtolo,
Thank you for that information.
I will go and investigate.
My template finally works! Thanks very much @mirkocurtolo.
But I've run into a new problem. When I proceed the weather report lesson at some point it tells me to modify the code that arduino has provided so the modulino pixels work by copy pasting in some new lines of code.
After I did this I got a huge error message wich I can't fix on my own
the error message reads:
/run/arduino/sketches/Weather_Report_aug28b/Weather_Report_aug28b.ino: In function 'void updateLights()':

Hi @d2v5d. Please post your sketch code.
I'll provide instructions you can follow to do that:
