Re: Davis WLL - missing data on computer restart

Hmm, OK. A step at a time... Yes, the Station ID is just a simple numeric, helpfully it is not viewable by the user on wl.com. It's strange how we are received three responses to the zero-config (mDNS) query. It shouldn't matter as all I do is extract the IP from the response, but it could be sympto...

Re: Solved: Recent History Tags question

you have variables embedded within the tag No I don't, the original wiki text that Steve contributed said that Cumulus 1 handles these tags by replacing the input parameter with an array position. I assume that MX is using $j to signify that array position. I use the tags the way you say I should (...

Re: Recent History Tags question

No, they haven't changed. Those changed modifiers are for web tag "output" formatting. The tag parameters for input have not changed. I think your problem is Cumulus is processing your file as-is, but you have variables embedded within the tag. So it is trying to process... <#RecentWindSpe...

Ah! You are not connecting to a database, you just connect to the server. So like kocher said above. You have... // Connect to the datbase $mysqli = new mysqli($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpassword); if ($mysqli->connect_errno) { die('Failed to connect to the database server'); } But then no database connec...

Re: mysqli transition

:? It is essentially the same as my current version of that script that I use on my home page - the resulting SQL query is the same, and it is working with mysqli for me?

I'm currently using MariaDB 10.1

Re: mysqli transition

Perhaps you could post the actual code that sends the command, the SQL statement looks OK to me.

Not much to set really, it Windows, so COM4, 19200, is there more?

Re: <#rmonth> no returning correct value

It sort of looks like there is a loopback on the serial connection. When it should be just getting a 0x06 character back for a ACK command, it is getting 0xA,0xD = CRLF

Re: <#rmonth> no returning correct value

I'm surprised it works at all if the comm port speeds don't match!

Why have you changed it from the default 19,200 baud?

You can add an entry to the Cumulus.ini file in the [station] section to override the default...

Re: Rainfall only showing to one decimal point

Your ajaxCUwx,js script has useUnits set to "M" (metric - which forces rain to 1 dp) but your site is displaying a mixture of imperial and metric - you'll need someone who knows the template to sort it out for you.

Re: <#rmonth> no returning correct value

What did you use to parse the file so that in the future I can do this investigation myself? The error message which points you at the problem is in the log files as Cumulus starts up. It gives you the filename and line number. I then just looked at your dayfile in VS Code which parses CSV into a c...

Re: <#rmonth> no returning correct value

You want to take a look at this line in your dayfile.txt

Code: Select all

2020-03-17 08:39:57.339 GetRainfallTotals: Error on line 2160 of dayfile.txt: Input string was not in a correct format.
That line is messed up, there is an extra column at position 3 - value = 0 - that shouldn't be there
