Re: using process to generate text file
Works OK for me. They only get created at the 'normal' interval, not the 'realtime' interval.

Re: using process to generate text file
You're listing them in the files list with 'ftp' not ticked, but they don't get copied?
Or you're not listing them but you assumed that Cumulus would copy them anyway?

Re: using process to generate text file
i am assuming that after transferring the "T" files with "process" and "realtime" ticked that the images would be created in the "transfer folder" in the images directory i made there
have not ticked the ftp option

Re: using process to generate text file
Cumulus doesn't really know where to copy them to unless they're listed in the files list; it doesn't look to see which directory the files are going to, they could all be different.
But... there aren't enough boxes to be able to list all the images as well.
I guess we need a box to supply an images directory, then Cumulus could copy all the images there.

Re: using process to generate text file
OK, I'll sort that out. Ideally, it would all be a bit more flexible and neater and coherent...

Re: using process to generate text file
That's odd, it works for me. Different combination of settings maybe. Could you tell me exactly what you have ticked and where?

Re: using process to generate text file
And have a look in the latest Diags file to see if there are any 'Error copying' messages in there.

Re: using process to generate text file
But it's supposed to work with realtime ticked as well - as long as you have the 'realtime enabled' setting ticked.

Um, yes. I had it working, then I, um, improved the code a bit and forgot to test it again
I'll fix it...
