Re: CUMULUS 1.9.3 build 1059 DOES NOT WORK WITH WIN 8 PRO
It's a problem with your Windows regional settings. If you were running Cumulus before you changed to Windows 8, then you now have different settings, so Windows cannot make sense of the items in the log files. If you want to use the same log files, you have to use the same settings. The same decimal separator, the same list separator, the same date format etc.
If you have been running Cumulus with different settings, then you may have a mixture of entries in the log files, so you will need to edit the files to make the entries match your current settings.

Re: CUMULUS 1.9.3 build 1059 DOES NOT WORK WITH WIN 8 PRO
Uh...Steve just gave you why you're having the error. Your Windows regional settings have changed (i.e. different date formats, possibly changed the decimal separator, etc).johnt13 wrote:This is the bug I get when I run Cumulus with my old data logs
I would reconcile that before posting this. If you find that it hasn't changed, then there is obviously something else going on. It appears from the two lines that you provided that Cumulus is seeing a date format in a field it's not expecting it to be in.

cumulus 1.9.4 build 1086
I had Cumulus working fine on Vista ... installed this new one on new drive with Win 8.1 pro ...
it doesn't find the data ... red light flashes ... I tried several settings, but fine offset is what I used before.
I then installed EasyWeather, and it reads the data, but on downloading data it gets stuck after a bit, gives IDispatch error #3081 and locks up (if that helps)
It is installed in c:cumulus ... not with program files. don't think it found the old ini, old c drive not attached, D backup is, but I don't see configuration settings there.
and now, for no apparent reason ... it is working.
all I did was close my logitech alert commander ... which is networked video security ... and restarted cumulus ....
still works after restarting the logitech thing
thanks ...
