Cumulus 1.94 b1085

Hi
I don't understand what have happened my PC at:31.10.2013? After that date it hve not updated my NOAA reports to my webpage. And it has not updated my Wunderground and PWS pages? Could You help me in that? Thank You before answer still...Thank you in advance...

p.s. My diags folder Cum009 attached

WU and PWS are both returning the same error:

01/11/13 11:19:08.078 : An error has occurred during the PWS update: Bad Request
01/11/13 11:19:08.078 : An error has occurred during the Wunderground update: Bad Request

I don't know what that message means; it's not very helpful. Is the clock and timezone etc on your PC still set correctly? They may be rejecting the uploads if they think the times are in the future.

Your NOAA reports aren't uploading because you have an ftp problem:

03/11/13 00:00:43.973 : Uploading NOAA reports

You could get some more information about what your problem is by turning on ftp logging some time before midnight. If your ftp uploads are OK at other times, that would suggest some kind of problem with your connection at that time of day only.

Hi
But how can a man correct those?
And what does this mean, after midnight both days, when errors started to become:
This is straight from cum009: "02/11/13 00:00:18.348 : Error in NOAA dominant wind direction calculation: Invalid floating point operation "
What error that is?

But how can a man correct those?

The time settings? In the Windows control panel. But if they look correct already, then that isn't the problem; it was just a guess as the error message isn't helpful. If you turn on the debug log, then after a WU upload there may be a better message from WU in there. If not, then if you want to send me your WU password by private message, I'll investigate.

What error that is?

It means that there was an error in the NOAA dominant wind direction calculation giving an invalid floating point operation. In other words, Cumulus wasn't able to calculate the dominant wind direction for one month using the data in your monthly log files. It will have used zero for that month and put "---" in the report. Looking on your web site, it appears that May is the one in question, so there's a problem with the monthly data log file for that month. Looking at your May report, it looks like there's a problem on the 28th, but it's hard to read any of your reports because they aren't displayed with a monospaced font, or the formatting is broken in some other way.

The error message is "bad filename", but Cumulus isn't sending a file. I used the update URL in my browser and got "success" back, and you now have one update at WU. So something else between you and WU is giving that error message, I'm afraid I have no idea what it could be. Whatever it is, it is preventing your WU and PWS updates working.

Problem solved... The problem is / was, as always, me... But now I think those probs in WU and PWS are corrected... except me... WU and PWS data are updated. I suppose that NOAA reports will update next midnight too... Thank You steve again for Your help.
