Help..................
I am trying to set up a ftp upload to my web site and amongst other things, I am getting this error, which I think is the start of what is happening:

Re: Help..................
Most likely the problem is you have to use passive mode (e.g. see here).
Although I am not a full 100% sure in Cumulus, I'd suggest you switch off 'Active FTP mode' in Web/FTP Settings, it may help.

Re: Help..................
That message implies that the server will not accept connections to IP address 10.237.112.6 and that you should use 185.114.33.4 instead.orion_jb2001 wrote: ↑Mon 14 Oct 2019 8:55 am I am trying to set up a ftp upload to my web site and amongst other things, I am getting this error, which I think is the start of what is happening:

Re: Help..................
Thanks for replies. It seems to have fixed it self, the ftplog indicating connection and transfers BUT I am still not seeing any images. There has been no index.htm created at all.

Re: Help..................
Hi all, whilst I come to grips with the cumulus process to put your data on line, just some little questions. With so many different protocols for using ftp, with the cumulusMX when your setting up your directories etc for the ftp upload, does this cumulus ftp set up system require a leading / or not. And re my previous, it appears that earlier problem re active and passive is sorted, but I am at a loss about the index.htm file that is supposed to be created by the cumulus ftp system. I note that index.htm file exists in the web folder of your cumulus program directory on the PC. I thought such a file would be better placed in the web files folder.

Re: Help..................
That can depend on your host service. For me in both Cumulus and Cumulusmx the Internet Settings Sites/Options does not use '/' as just: public_html/weather www.komokaweather.com/weather and public_html/cumulusmx www.komokaweather.com/cumulusmxdoes this cumulus ftp set up system require a leading / or not.
The Cumulus\web folder has the template files - i.e. indexT.htm and Cumulus processes these and uploads as i.e. public_html/weather/index.htm
Depending on the settings Cumulus may have the current templates files - i.e. index.htm in the \web folder as temporary files.
If you have custom files to be processed and upload you would normally place the template file - i.e. mycustomefileT.htm in the \web folder and in Internet Settings Extra Web Files you would enter the source path\name and the remote path/file and tick FTP.
If you want a processed file to be saved on your local computer and not FTP you would add that in the Internet Settings Extra Files as well but not tick FTP.
The Cumulus\webfiles folder only has the files for initial one-time manual FTP to your site.
Enjoy,
Paul

Re: Help..................
Thanks Paul for you detailed reply.
The Cumulus\web folder has the template files - i.e. indexT.htm and Cumulus processes these and uploads as i.e. public_html/weather/index.htm
So this should happen automatically??
[/i]If you have custom files to be processed and upload you would normally place the template file - i.e. mycustomefileT.htm in the \web folder and in Internet Settings Extra Web Files you would enter the source path\name and the remote path/file and tick FTP.
If you want a processed file to be saved on your local computer and not FTP you would add that in the Internet Settings Extra Files as well but not tick FTP.[/i]
I suppose if that automatic creation does not occur, this process will get the index.htm created? I would think then that the instructions in the simple website speal probably needs to be amplified to mention this, apart from "Cumulus produces a page called index.htm".
II am not at home at the moment but will try your suggestions when back there. I have tried to set up cumulus 1 web site as well and much prefer the ftp little window that shows your upload process. A sad thing missing from the MX version. Much easier to watch whats happening, than clicking on your ftp logging file constantly .... lol

It should if you have checked "Include standard files" in the Web/FTP settingsorion_jb2001 wrote: ↑Tue 15 Oct 2019 5:48 pm Thanks Paul for you detailed reply.

Re: Help..................
Thanks Mark. Interesting you raise the standard files click. One thing I found confusing in the simple web site wiki, is the mention of this:
(Left hand picture is Cumulus 1.x.y interface, right hand picture is Cumulus MX settings screen)
I am not sure what every body else is seeing in the wiki, but I don't see left hand pictures or right hand pictures. I like the idea of the blue arrows and red arrows but there is some confusion mentioning the blue arrows are for cumulus 1 and it just then says mx in the right hand drawing. Perhaps someone needs to edit these instructions as they are showing now???

Re: Help..................
I am uploading to the correct directory on my server. However in the testing section of the simplified wiki this portion:
Both Cumulus 1.x.y, and Cumulus MX, while running should create the 9 standard web pages in the local 'web' sub-directory, and upload these to the web space by FTP.
or
Cumulus MX should also upload by FTP eleven .json files that Cumulus MX creates in the top level directory (that is, the one it's been installed in), for the graphs ("graphconfig.json", "tempdata.json", "pressdata.json", "winddata.json", "wdirdata.json", "humdata.json", "raindata.json", "solardata.json", "dailyrain.json", "sunhours.json", "dailytemp.json").
is not occuring. Suggestions ???

Re: Help..................

Re: Help..................
It is saying the cumulus folder does not exist on your web server.
Login to the FTP server with an FTP client do nothing else and take screen shot, we need to see where the FTP root folder is for your user.
Plus you haven't given us a link to your website yet. Without information we are guessing.

Re: Help..................
If someone can suggest a different program to publish my weather data. Clearly Cumulus is in its death throes and probably why it was dumped by it's creators.

Re: Help..................
Two releases in September and a beta underway is "death throes"? OK, whatever.
From that screen shot it looks like your remote folder is actually "/public_html/cumulus" not the "cumulus" you have entered.
