C/ProgramFiles(x86)/Stardock/ObjectDock

stardockweather.ocx should be in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Stardock (if not on 64 bit, lose the (x86) )

Thanks weatherbound.  Same thing happened to me today.  Your fix you posted worked for me to - kudos.

My weather dock (the one included with object down when installed) is updating now BUT, the weather is wrong.  It shows the incorrect days and forecast.  It has the correct zip code in the configuration.  It will also bring up the correct weather page if I right click and tell it to go to the weather homepage.  I just removed it because it's totally useless.  It's easier to just go look it up so you know the information is correct.

I had same problem but when i purchased object dock ver 2 it is now working fine

Try following this link in Internet Explorer (Firefox and other browsers do no handle the file type correctly):

32 bit: http://sd.stardock.com/mike/apps/install_weather.bat
64 bit: http://sd.stardock.com/mike/apps/install_weather_64.bat

save the file and run it from your machine (right click and run as administrator for Vista) and follow it's instructions.

I just got this software and ran into this problem. Glad i'm not the only one. BUT now after messing around a bit i believe i have solved the problem.

ALL I DID WAS INSTALL THE LATEST DIRECT X FROM DOWNLOADS.COM. THIS PRETTY MUCH SOLVED THE PROBLEM.  Now ,the docklet shows today's , tomorrow  and future weather.

Before, i downloaded direct x it said something like "retrieving info" for a few mins and then "cannot find info".

hope this helps solve you all's problem with weather dock.

Don't know if anyone still has issues with this but here goes.

Downloading that weather file and putting it in the folder seemed to do the trick for me. Unfortunately it seems to come back every now and then. I suggest, if any of you are having the same problem to create a batch file to fix the quickly.(Just make a new .txt file and change it's extension to .bat instead.)

If you use my code you will need to put the new stardockweather.ocx in a folder called bak, it's directory should be: C:\Program Files (x86)\Stardock\ObjectDock\Docklets\Weather\bak

Also, if you have a 32 bit machine just replace any part that says (x86) with nothing. So instead of Program Files (x86)\stardock do Program Files\stardock

Here if anyone is interested:

echo off
cls
taskkill /IM ObjectDock.exe /F
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Stardock\ObjectDock\Docklets\Weather"
del stardockweather.ocx /q
copy "bak\stardockweather.ocx" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Stardock\ObjectDock\Docklets\Weather\stardockweather.ocx"
start ..\..\ObjectDock.exe
Echo And it should work perfectly now!
Echo Enjoy!

Yes, any time a web service is not working for you, checking firewall settings is always a good troubleshooting step.

I'm using Windowss 7 and have OD Plus, and the weather docklet gives the same temp and forecast day after day. Thought I'd give OD Plus another try since I lost my registration for Winstep xtreme. Not to be untoward (I do have my opinions and preferences), but WorkShelf smokes OD Plus in many ways. I've allowed OD through my firewall and tried the various fixes here with no success (which I shouldn't have to do for software I paid for). Looks like I'll just have to break down and purchase another key from Winstep and dump OD...

Err, send me an email to Winstep support then! No need to buy another license key, I'll just re-send your old key.

This fix still works for anyone who's had to reinstall such as myself with a new pc build.
