I need to update my sensor data to thingspeak , so I was doing it with the python thingspeak library. Two days ago it was working fine but now it doesn't work, the connection times out , I also tried to update it with urllib2 ,that too doesnt' work.
My net connection is fine, I am able to open webpages on Pi and I can update the channel from my laptop using thingspeak library as well as urllib2. could someone kindly help me.
my code with thingspeak library:
node = False
channel_id = ""
write = ""
if data['MAC'] in ':ab:35':
channel_id = "XXXXX"
write = "XXXXXXXXXXX"
node = True
if node:
channel = thingspeak.Channel(id=channel_id,write_key=write)
try :
response=channel.update({1:data['TEMP'],2:data['VOLT'],3:data['PRES'],4:data['HUM']})
print response
print 'Thingspeak updated!!!'
except :
print "connection failed"
when i try urllib2 :
f = urllib2.urlopen(url)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 154, in urlopen

If I use SSH and try to run the script, it works .
