error help

[ternzer]

Love the software but lately i have been having more crashes. The problem is it doesn't crash it just flat-lines the data and keeps feeding it to my site and weather sites based on the last set of readings. I did some searching and saw a post to turn off the weatherlink upload and set the cumulus pause to 0. I don't upload to the davis site so I just turned it off through the web interface.
Can someone please review the error below and help me fix it. I have a Davis VP2 with the weatherlinkip logger. I used to get the crash once a month now I am getting it nearly every week. I am currently using build 3041 on windows server.
If it helps I can also zip and add the MXdiag folder.
Thanks for the help

I can't tell you any more than it says there - the remote end is disconnecting.

[ternzer]

thanks Steve but Im not real sure what that means. Is it something internal on my network that could cause this?

I noticed that davis updated the logger firmware in august. Ill try that first and report back.

New Version 1.1.2
- Fixed DNS issue. With this upgrade WeatherLinkIP will revert back to the primary DNS following an internet connection failure.

When I've seen that error before it's been down to the WLIP disconnecting because it wants to upload to wl.com but you say you've turned that off, so I don't know what the cause of the disconnect is.

[ternzer]

thanks. your info helped and I figured it out. I had my router set to re-boot every 5 days. The down time was causing it to time out. I turned off the reboot and it hasnt error out since.

Steve,

is there anything i can do to keep it from timing out when it looses a connection for a brief time? it even happens if our internet goes down for 5 minutes. Or is there something i can do to get it to re-connect? the problem i have is that cumulus freezes (flat lines) and keeps sending out the last reading it had. When it does this i have no way of knowing until i notice a graph is flat or temps arnt updating right on my web page. I would even be happy if i could get it to force quit or do a full crash because WU would notify me it was off line.
any help is appreciated.

If you look elsewhere on the forum you may find scripts which can take action when data input stops.
