Ubuntu Server 15.10

Topics about the Beta trials up to Build 3043, the last build by Cumulus's founder Steve Loft. It was by this time way out of Beta but Steve wanted to keep it that way until he made a decision on his and Cumulus's future.

Ubuntu Server 15.10

Post by g7vnn »

I have recently been running CumulusMX successfully on the Raspberry PI2 - worked perfectly :-) However I have decided to install and run it off my Ubuntu Server, and now I can't get CMX to work!! I have an Oregon Scientific WMR100 station connected via USB to the server, and when I try an run the software after inputting the com port number I get the error listed below. I'm no expert on using Linux, and each attempt at trying to locate and enter what I think the port should be results in the error. I have also attached the MXDiags folder as requested by the software.

Any help or pointers would be much appreciated :-)

Thanks
Chris.

You don't need to enter a COM port for a WMR100 - it's a USB station, not serial.

This is the problem:
WMR100 station not found!
So the system isn't making the station visible to Cumulus. Do you have libudev0 installed?
