Description of problem: When I start GNOME weather, the window appears with a spinner and the text "Loading...", but the weather never gets loaded. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-weather.noarch 40.0-1.fc34 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start GNOME weather Actual results: The weather is not loaded, the window states: "Loading..." and shows a spinner. Expected results: The weather information is loaded and displayed. (when creating this bug report, I noticed that the root cause is that the location services were disabled. A hint or question to enable them would be useful. I now discovered this by looking into the system journal (see below). Additional info: From the journal logging: May 28 09:21:38 rainbowdash gnome-shell[2161]: Can't update stage views actor ClutterActor is on because it needs an allocation.

I enabled the Location Services, closed GNOME Weather, and restarted GNOME Weather again. Now the weather for my location is loading.
