New to Cumulus and want to use it on Weatherbug.com

[trixiet]

Hi folks! I am new to Cumulus and want to use it on WeatherBug. I have installed Cumulus Version 1.9.4, Build 1099. The program seems to be working correctly as I have been watching the outside temperature. But I do not see any update on WeatherBug. Is there some sort of time delay before Cumulus updates WeatherBug or do I have some setting wrong? I contacted WeatherBug but they were of no help. My station is a WMR200 and when I was using Virtual Weather it seemed to work very good. But Virtual weather software is erratic in putting in wrong data. For example, the outside high temperature was 35 degrees but Virtual Weather said it was 98.5. Rainfall is very erratic and the wind speed and direction takes 3 to 5 minutes to update. If anyone knows how to setup Cumulus to work with WeatherBug, I would be very grateful for any assistance.

You've presumably entered your Weatherbug account details in the Weatherbug panel on the internet settings screen, so if you turn on the debug log (on the Configuration menu) and let Cumulus run until a Weatherbug update should have taken place, then the debug.log file should show the attempted upload to Weatherbug, and the response, which should help pinpoint the problem.

Thanks for the speedy reply. How long does it take for Cumulus to upload data to WeatherBug and when should I see an update? I made some changes on the internet page and shut down Cumulus and rebooted it. Is there any indication on the main page to show a upload attempt?

Where do I see this Debug log file?

It will attempt updates at the interval you have specified, synchronised to the clock minutes if you have specified an interval which is a factor of 60, or every N minutes after it starts up otherwise. The debug.log file is in the folder where you have installed Cumulus.
