Re: Updated to 3089, worked briefly, no station updates received

It seemed to work perfectly for another day and then stopped receiving updates from the station. Using putty I just sudo reboot, then again its working. But I don't expect it to be tomorrow. Strange. :? It had worked fine for well over a year with 3045 version of Cumulus MX. Thinking I may have to s...

Re: Updated to 3089, worked briefly, no station updates received

I had downloaded 3089 ready to update from 3045 a couple of days it seems before 3090 came out. :roll: Today, all seems to be working again. I had given up with pulling the USB cable out, resetting the Station and rebooting the pi. Then just by chase ( 2 days later) today, its working again. :? I da...

Updated to 3089, worked briefly, no station updates received

I was using the the 3043 version for well over a year, even managed to stop the USB lock up. Suddenly 3043 seemed to not be working (later found it was chrome cache needed clearing) but anyway installed the 3089 version, it worked fine for about a day and now all data is at zero and the last station...

Re: Instructions: Installing CumulusMX on Raspberry Pi

Deleted the CumulusMX directory and sub directory with backup files after stopping Cumulus MX process. Used 'sudo rm -rf Cumulus MX' command and it did the trick. However after installing the new build and restarting Cumulus in pi, its still showing as build 3043 at the bottom of the browser screen....

Re: Instructions: Installing CumulusMX on Raspberry Pi

I use the method in the first post on this thread by ExperiMentor. Which does say how to reboot with Cumulus not running, just I'm not confident in where to apply the text in the command line.

Re: Instructions: Installing CumulusMX on Raspberry Pi

That's what I've done wrong Cumulus was running. Without messing up the auto boot instructions, if there a command to just stop cumulus running so I can replace the software reboot and it automatically start running again? Thanks Freddie.
