Linux help for MX data files
I recently switched from Cumulus 1 running on Windows 10, to CumulusMX running on RPi. The switchover went fairly smoothly with one exception. I have 9+ years of data which unfortunately has some incorrect entries. I have corrected the spikes, but am unable to upload the amended files. I realize that this is a Linux permissions issue vs a CuMX issue, but if anyone can offer some assistance it would be appreciated.

Re: Linux help for MX data files
Have you tried uploading the files using the same user that owns your MX data files?

Re: Linux help for MX data files
Thanks for the reply. Yes I have, and I also watched some good Youtube vids explaining linux permissions today which made things clearer. I'll persevere and eventually get it sorted. "Rome wasn't built in a day" etc.
Cheers

Re: Linux help for MX data files
Check the permissions on the folder that the data files are in too (that's the "data" folder in your MX installation folder).
