The daily charts not updated since the end of the year

Post by Manuel N »

Hello, sorry for my English, I've been testing your program three months (october 2015) and the truth is that you have done a great job , but I have a problem I do not understand
I have a problem with daily rainfall and temperature charts and not updated since the end of the year.
Dayfile.txt errors are corrected but can not find the cause. What can be?

If you zip up the diags folder and attach it to a reply in this thread, I'll take a look.

Yes, almost certainly. If you look in those diags files, you will see Cumulus complaining about errors in the log files - it can't make sense of them. The error light is presumably flashing? If you click on that you will also see the errors listed. You will need to resolve those issues - most likely caused by different system settings on the new PC.

If you have already corrected the errors with Cumulus still running, you will need to restart Cumulus to get it to redraw the graphs from the data logs. Note though that you have gaps in your data of several days because you haven't been running Cumulus 24/7, and your station doesn't have a data logger.

You also need to check the date formats in your data files, in particular dayfile.txt - your daily graphs have dates in 2020, so it looks like you have edited dayfile.txt with something that changed the date format from dd/mm/yy to dd/mm/yyyy, so the'20' from '2016' is being interpreted as the year, hence 2020.
