No Weatherbug Data

Post by markarmer »

I am running 1.9.4 build 1095 - I turned on debug logging after realizing no data was being sent to weatherbug yet no data appears in this log regarding weatherbug. It shows that the Wundergound data is being successfully updated but there is no reference to weatherbug, good or bad.

This used to work just fine however I honestly don't know when it was last successful as I use Cumulus to feed weatherbug which in turn feeds my Isy99 irrigation system. As such I haven't checked it since last fall when I turned off my irrigation, but now I just planted up my garden and found my irrigation system isn't working because no data is getting from Cumulus to weatherbug.

I contacted weatherbug first, they confirmed my backyard station is active and working but they are not receiving any data from Cumulus. I verified all my account info and password with them, all is good. The computer running cumulus has the firewall turned off for testing, it has internet access and published fine to Wunderground it just isn't connecting to weatherbug and from what the log shows it isn't attempting to connect to weatherbug.

Does anyone have any ideas? I need this working ASAP to get my irrigation system up and running.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Are you using 'rapid fire' for WU? If so, does it still work if you turn off rapid fire? What intervals do you have set for WU and WeatherBug?

Are all of your sensors working correctly and giving sensible readings? In particular pressure and outside temperature?

If you zip up the diags folder and the debug log and attach them, I'll take a look.

Steve, that was it - You solved it already :)
I don't use my indoor sensor and hadn't replaced the batteries since I purchased my weather station years ago. As such, Cumulus was not receiving a pressure reading.

I replaced the batteries in my indoor unit and within a few minutes pressure readings were showing up and Cumulus is once again posting to WeatherBug.

Thank You
Mark
