Assistance with getting the latest version of MX working

Hi all,
Could I have some assistance please to get the latest version of MX working.
I decided to update from Cumulus MX v.3.6.12 build 3088 to v3.9.0 - b3095 unfortunately this version will only get to “last update” status and then it stops and only displays the flashing cursor.
I have attached the diagnostics file “Build 3095.txt” that shows an OpenTcpPort: Error.
In case it was something that I had done wrong I reverted back to build 3088 that had been previously working ok, however this time the screen would run through its start-up routine but displayed "not connected".
Checking my network Analyser program, it shows that my Davis WeatherLinkIP data logger was no longer connected to my network the only way I could get it to work was to reset my network switch.
Now build 3088 works fine I have also included the diagnostics file “Build 3088.txt” that shows the “not connected” state
I am launching both versions via the short cut method i.e. not the new service method.
Any help in getting v3.9.0 - b3095 working would be appreciated.

Neither version can connect to your IP logger.
Is the IP address still correct?

Hi mcrossley,

As I stated in my previous message after trying to upgrade and finding it would not go passed “last update”, I reverted back to my previously working build 3088 however this flagged "not connected".
At this point I looked at my network Analyser App to find that my logger was not being seen by my network. If my logger had changed IP the logger would still be shown and I would have noted an IP change. The only way to get the Logger to show was to power down my 8 port Network switch, once repowered the logger showed as being connected to the network and by restarting up MX again my build 3088 was back working just as it was before I tried to upgrade to Build3095.
So, my question is what do I need to do to run Build3095 so it does not present the problem described in this and my previous message.

Regards

Well, nothing special. Nothing has changed about how it handles Davis stations in the config.
