I have checked the today.ini file and the yesterday.ini file and they have the same date. This occurred after I upgraded cumulus to the latest build.
Any suggestions?

Re: No data for Today Min Temp or Min Preasure
You closed Cumulus down just before midnight, so when it started up it had no new data before it needed to do the end of day rollover, so you ended up with zero for some of the minimum values for the new day, which don't subsequently get corrected with the first real data. I've written a lot of code to try to cope with every possible combination of stopping and starting Cumulus, but the advice (in the readme.txt) is still to not close Cumulus down just before midnight.
To correct today's value, you can stop Cumulus and edit today.ini, changing the zero values and associated times to something more realistic taken from the log file.
I've spotted a couple of issues in there that you may not be aware of. The console is frequently losing contact with the outdoor transmitter. There are lots of messages like this; perhaps your transmitter battery needs replacing:
25/07/2014 16:15:02.673 : Lost sensor contact!!!
25/07/2014 16:15:22.688 : Lost sensor contact!!!
25/07/2014 16:15:32.705 : Lost sensor contact!!!
25/07/2014 16:15:42.712 : Lost sensor contact!!!
25/07/2014 16:15:52.721 : Lost sensor contact!!!
And your Blake-Larsen sunshine recorder software appears not be creating the SRsunshine.dat file for Cumulus:
25/07/2014 16:53:00.330 : Error reading SRsunshine.dat: The specified file was not found
25/07/2014 16:54:00.337 : Error reading SRsunshine.dat: The specified file was not found
25/07/2014 16:55:00.342 : Error reading SRsunshine.dat: The specified file was not found

Re: No data for Today Min Temp or Min Preasure
OK, i suspected something like this. As for the sunshine data my system does not record insolation, I have just replaced the total system, indoor and out, with exactly the same unit on 23 July so I will need to look at the config of the station. Thanks for your guidance.
