Moon displaying wrong phase on website.

Post by dc1500 »

Not sure how long it's being doing this but the image on the website should be full moon at the moment (it is in Cumulus) but the image is only half moon on the website. The text is correct in saying it is a full moon. Any ideas?

In fact it may be the moon image isn't changing at all rather than being out of synch.

Your graphs aren't all updating at the same time. Either Cumulus is unable to create the image, or you have ftp problems - most likely timeouts. You can determine which it is by looking at the images on your PC to see if they are all being updated correctly. Assuming they are, you then need to turn on the ftp log and look for ftp problems. If you are getting ftp timeouts, you need to try to find out why they are occurring; it could be for any of a number of reasons - problems with your internet connection, problems with your web host provider, problems with the route between your PC and your web host provider, etc.

Thanks Steve. I've had active FTP on for a while now. I've tried turning that off and done a manual web update. One or both appear to have produced the correct image. I'll leave it for a few days and see if it changes on its own, if not I'll do some FTP logging.
