Re: File ownership Issue

Cool, thanks, kind of what I was thinking. I was going to run the, "sudo chown -R alt:alt /home/alt/cumulusMX" by the group to see if that was the right direction. Looks like it is. As far as running inconsistent use of owners in running Cumulus, that's never happened. There is only 1 user...

Re: File ownership Issue

Interesting . . . As I said, I'm not that proficient in Linux or command line directions. I use terminal on my Mac only sparingly. Most of this is purely academic because once I move everything over to Mint 21.1 I probably won't touch it again until 2027 when 21 is due to sunset. :lol: The beauty of...

Re: File ownership Issue

Thanks for the replies. There is only one user on this machine "alt". I've checked the ownership of CumulusMX.exe and it is "alt". I launch Cumulus with the terminal command, "sudo mono CumulusMX.exe" after cd to its directory. I'm not a big user of Linux, my main platf...

File ownership Issue

With the sunsetting of Linux Mint 19.3 in April, I've set up a Linux Mint 21.1 on a separate drive to test. There seems to be numerous issues with my 19.3 so just going to a fresh install would be the best way to go. There are only two things I use my Linux box for. CumulusMX and OBS for live stream...

Re: Can't load log files

Yup, it was the interface folder. Just updated to the latest build and kept the new interface folder and I was able to load log files. However the Wind speed/direction/solar gauges that I have setup on my Mac don't work which is why I was keeping the old interface folder. I need to figure out what c...

Re: Can't load log files

I'm accessing the program via web browser and the local LAN IP address. I don't believe I've ever setup user accounts and can't find a place on the page to login either on the Mac computer that I usually access it from or directly on the Linux machine that it is running on. So I must have a problem ...

Can't load log files

I had a reed switch on my Davis VP2 go bonkers, giving me 12 inches of rain in less then an hour. I know that's been happening a bit around the world this summer but not at my house :) Rain gauge has been fixed but now I need to fix my data log. 12 inches of rain is several years worth in Phoenix , ...

Re: Trying to change Airlink from indoor to outdoor

All I'm wanting to do is get realtime air quality data so anything else is moot. I don't believe WiFi reception is an issue, I have a mesh system in the house. The Airlink is within 10ft of a node even though it is outside. There is a sliding glass door between the node and the Airlink. Signal stren...

Re: Trying to change Airlink from indoor to outdoor

Station ID has never filled in when I had it setup indoor nor outdoors. It filled in the Airlink Hostname but not the station ID. It probably isn't running correctly. Seems to be found but then removed. It keeps doing that throughout the log. Not sure how to get the station ID. Here's from the log f...

Re: Trying to change Airlink from indoor to outdoor

I did figure out what was meant by Console after my last posted. The VP2 box is such a non part of my system I forget it exists. It only feeds the computer so I almost forget about it. I said it before and will say it again, its use of only whole numbers on the display makes it useless. If I wasn't ...

Re: Trying to change Airlink from indoor to outdoor

Hummm, OK, I restarted the computer which should take care of any extra copies running. That shouldn't happen because Settings / Program settings / Program General Options I have Stop second instance checked. The good news is that my Airlink sensors page is now clear. It does go through a "Down...

Re: Trying to change Airlink from indoor to outdoor

This is a complete mystery to me. I have renamed the AirLInk202103Log.txt file so it isn't seen by CXM. Data still there. I made a copy, deleted all the data so it's a blank canvas, corrected to it's proper name. Data still there. Where is it getting the data for the Extra Sensors / AirLink Sensors?...

Re: Trying to change Airlink from indoor to outdoor

I am familiar with editing .ini files (WeatherDisplay) I never edit an .ini file while the program is running. I didn't know about the AirLink202103log.txt file. I see it isn't in the Mac data folder which is pre AirLInk, so if I toss it would that flush AirLink from my Linux CMX so I can start over...

Re: Trying to change Airlink from indoor to outdoor

Sorry it's the Airlink station that is a node on WLL so I should have said AirLink instead of WLL. As always I try to first set things in the Dashboard setting and when that doesn't work I go to the .ini file. I"m not shy about going into the .ini file because of my experience with WeatherDispl...
