Problem with Webtags and Toolbox

Post by Hillbilly »

I've installed the toolbox and have some sql tables now happily taking monthly and daily data, which is marvellous and the main reason I installed the package. I'm now looking to make use of the rest which is equally clever, thanks David. I have a problem with the webtags.php file. Webtags.txt exists, as does webtags.php and I have processing set, but I have a regular error message which says the system can't find webtags.phptmp

Could not find file 'c:\Cumulus\data\cumuluswebtags.phptmp.

I've attached the logfile and a shot of the Cumulus internet file settings. I upgraded to the latest version this afternoon.

Hi Helen

You appear to be processing the webtags file twice -- once to FTP to your site, and a second time to a local file. You only need to process a local copy if you are not already processing an FTP copy.

If you do not need the second one, I suggest you remove it from Cumulus and just leave the one which FTPs. Once removed, go back into the Seutp of 'Toolbox', and in the General tab click Browse and select the Cumulus.ini again. Next select the webtags file to use (there should only be one shown on the list). Save

Hopefully that will solve the problem

Helen

Does this file exist?

c:\Cumulus\data\cumuluswebtags.phptmp

It is created as part of the task as Cumulus 'Processes' cumuluswebtags file

Hi David,

no, that file doesn't exist anywhere. Strangely, I have a file called cumuluswebtags.txttmp not phptmp, in my cumulus data folder. Yesterday I shut everything down, deleted the cumuluswebtags tmp file and started it all again. Even having deleted the old file and starting again, it has come back again as a txttmp file. I have attached it but as far as I can see, I have a txt file which shows the webtags pre processing. This txttmp file seems to have the data post processing. :cry:

Ah, I think I see the problem.

To prove a point, can you rename you local cumuluswebtags.txt to cumuluswebtags.php. Also change the Local name within the Cumulus Internet, Files setting to cumuluswebtags.php

Force a web update to make Cumulus process and then see what 'Toolbox' does

thanks Helen

Well............renamed the file and file process parameter, then ran a web update. Spookily enough, I know have a perfectly formed cumuluswebtags.phptmp and Toolbox running quite happily. So thanks for that David. :clap:
Many thanks
