In testing various Kodi weather providers for a skin feature change I noticed the following with the Met Office Kodi weather provider:

"feels like" weather temp was obviously not right and the weather provider logo wasn't being displayed (missing).

Full log shows:

 EXCEPTION Thrown (PythonToCppException) : -->Python callback/script returned the following error<--

The fix is exactly as here:
melmorabity/plugin.video.francetv#4

Just edit /storage/.kodi/addons/weather.metoffice/src/metoffice/constants.py

add, where the existing imports are:

import xbmcvfs

and, lines 22 & 23, change

ADDON_BANNER_PATH = xbmc.translatePath('special://home/addons/%s/resources/banner.png' % ADDON.getAddonInfo('id'))
ADDON_DATA_PATH = xbmc.translatePath('special://profile/addon_data/%s/' % ADDON.getAddonInfo('id'))

to

ADDON_BANNER_PATH = xbmcvfs.translatePath('special://home/addons/%s/resources/banner.png' % ADDON.getAddonInfo('id'))
ADDON_DATA_PATH = xbmcvfs.translatePath('special://profile/addon_data/%s/' % ADDON.getAddonInfo('id'))

Hi,

I've recently tried to install your plugin onto my fresh installation of RaspBMC. When I try it tries to update the weather forecast I get a script error reported, and I see the following in the logs:

09:39:31 T:2900001856 ERROR: EXCEPTION Thrown (PythonToCppException) : -->Python callback/script returned the following error<--

Any idea?

It does not work for few months now
Error comes from http://datapoint.metoffice.gov.uk/public/data/val/wxobs/all/json

Error : KeyError: ('Key Error in JSON File', "Key 'Location' not found while processing file from url:", 'http://datapoint.metoffice.gov.uk/public/data/val/wxobs/all/json/3351?res=hourly&key=a69bbf86-54dd-427f-b48d-0e260a76c2f5')

When viewing the Weather page. The error is fairly self explanatory, the JSON it's looking at looks like this:

{"SiteRep":{"Wx":{"Param":[{"name":"G","units":"mph","$":"Wind Gust"},{"name":"T","units":"C","$":"Temperature"},{"name":"V","units":"m","$":"Visibility"},{"name":"D","units":"compass","$":"Wind Direction"},{"name":"S","units":"mph","$":"Wind Speed"},{"name":"W","units":"","$":"Weather Type"},{"name":"P","units":"hpa","$":"Pressure"},{"name":"Pt","units":"Pa/s","$":"Pressure Tendency"},{"name":"Dp","units":"C","$":"Dew Point"},{"name":"H","units":"%","$":"Screen Relative Humidity"}]},"DV":{"dataDate":"2014-05-06T16:00:00Z","type":"Obs"}}}

I'm getting error 403 responses from the metoffice site.
Testing with 'wget' shows that they respond with 403 if the htp User-Agent is 'Python-urllib-2.7' but anything else (even 'Wget/1.18') works OK.
I've worked around this by patching urlcache.py: change
response = urllib2.urlopen(url)
to
opener = urllib2.build_opener()
opener.addheaders = [('User-Agent', 'Mozilla/5.0')]
response = opener.open(url)
opener.close()
Not a python expert, so not sure if this is correct.
