Station settings - is not possible save

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.

But no error message just after the line "Updating station settings"?

What locale are you using and what version of mono?

That version of mono doesn't work with locales which use commas for decimal separators, as mentioned at the start of the MX FAQ post.

You have other errors too, as in the screen shot you posted. It happens whenever a floating point (decimal) number is involved.

Yes, I have errors on logs, but I can save on the configuration file when I change the other labels of Settings menu. I mean, I can change the wunderground setup, click on save and have a "Saved" pop-up. And yes, the file is correctly saved, this error appears only on the first label, that drive me crazy

Those screens don't involve decimal numbers. Whether it drives you crazy or not, the important fact is that mono 3.2.8 does not work properly with decimal commas, and hence neither can Cumulus. The FAQ says so, in large red letters. It doesn't matter that you can't use the station settings screen.

It seems that for some reason, the -lang setting does not completely override the system default.
