To understand the problem clearly, run indicator-weather in your command line and copy/paste the output here, so I can know what's the exact problem you are facing. Thanks
I am having an issue where the indicator will not start on ubuntu 16.10 as well. Below is the output you requested.

Fixed in 0.8.1
i have reinstalled and this is the error i am receiving now when trying to run.

Well that's very odd. @andyturn what version of Python are you using?
What you can do for now is to edit /usr/lib/ubuntu-indicato-weather/configuration.py file and add this line on top of the file import errno, so at least we can get more details about the error.
I think there would be still an error because from my understanding the startup file cannot be created on your machine, that's why an exception is raised, not sure what's the exact reason, maybe it's something related to permission. I hope adding that line provides more insight regarding the error so I can fix it more precisely. After modifying the code if you received another error message, please paste it here.
I have checked on Ubuntu 16.10 but cannot reproduce the error 😞
