Hi,

On one of my sites, I see the weather block keeps removing itself. There is a log entry, but I do not understand why this occurs.
Anyone know?

Fri 07 Nov 2003 01:11:12 PM CET - WEATHER PLUGIN -- When updating 'EKRK' error occured ' (0)'
Fri 07 Nov 2003 01:11:12 PM CET - Remove Weather - Block Definition

I think I found the reason, but it seemed so drastic. It seems like something is majorly wrong when it uninstalls itself.
Found this in config.php:

// Do you want the weather block to be removed if a timeout occurs
$_GW_removeblock = true; // false; leaves the block on your site if an error occurs

The removal of the block was built into the plugin to prevent your entire site from crashing. On occasion, the NWS site (site that provides weather feeds) goes down. If the socket connection from the plugin hangs, it can cause your entire site to not render.
