Double Entries in mmmyylog.txt file

Post by EDub »

I recently replaced my WMR100 station with a Vantage Pro2. I now find that each time the server reboots and Cumulus restarts, two entries appear in the Mmm15log.txt file for each upload instance. One of the entries is the actual sensor data and the other is a fixed data record that does not vary between reboots. The situation causes my WeatherUnderground graphs to resemble a saw blade in extreme need of overhaul. The graphs displayed under the "Trends" link are correct. I can edit the tables to delete the spurious data but I'd rather fix the underlying issues.

Any ideas what might be causing this?

You haven't got a second copy of Cumulus running in the background have you? Check the task list.

Good catch, Mark.

I was unaware that Cumulus could operate in the background. Ended the process and now everything is good again.

Thanks again,

It is wise to check "Stop 2nd instance" in the Station settings ;)
