External programs
Steve,
I have two external programs
ExternalProgram=
RealtimeProgram=D:\Cumulus\realtime.exe
DailyProgram=D:\Cumulus\daily.bat
ExternalParams=
RealtimeParams=
DailyParams=
Neither the exe nor the bat are being called. No entries in the mxdiags.. nothing. Its just as though the entries were not there. Have restarted the program to no avail.

Re: External programs
Sorry, I've broken the realtime and daily program code in my fix for WU uploads stopping after changing internet settings. The remaining one should still work.

Re: External programs
Ah, I only have a daily file, which of course runs at midnight, and I upgraded to b3009 this afternoon! So mine will break tonight Maybe I will switch back to C1 until Steve fixes this.Adrian Hudson wrote:Err...mcrossley wrote:Odd, I run a daily external - a batch file as well, it runs fine.
