Suddenly raintotals for this month appear 0

[Vossenberg]

Hello,

Unfortunately something strange happened. According to a website I am logging data to, the station today started to report 0mm of rain for the month.
However nothing changed in the setup.

I received a notification that the data might be incorrect and then updated to CumulusMX 3038. Is is possible to rebuild the data for today from the log files?
Thank you in advance!

That facility is not in MX yet. You should be able to edit dayfile.txt manually to correct the problem, the error message will have told you where to look.

I found out what happened. The message I received was today, however actually they sent me the message quite late.

I had changed from Dutch locale to English Locale, and this means that the log-files also change in language and format.
Therefore the data changed as well and the totals were off as well. Just went back to the original settings and created the right " Dutch" log-file again.
Let's see what happens after the rollover

Ah, OK, I thought you meant you were getting an error message from Cumulus.

Changing locales between one which uses decimal commas and one which doesn't will cause lots of problems...
