mbowers - A couple of people have had this same problem before... The only thing I can guess is that your server can't handle a file that big (it's about 1mb). The best thing I can suggest would be to download JJR512's original hack
here. In there he has 7 or so files with the queries you can run through phpMyAdmin to add all the cities and such. Then you can upload the file attached to this post and run it to install the templates and add the option to turn the weather on/off.
