error after importing historic data

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

error after importing historic data

Post by reindeer »

I am quite new to cumulus, but I managed to set up my website:
http://live.wetter-pocking.de

So I started to import some historic data from wlk-files with the converter provided in the wiki.
But now I have problems to manage these data because of errors in the dayfile.txt

Can anybody have a look at my files and assist me?

It looks like your date format is different.

The last entry in dayfile.txt is formatted "01.11.20", but the rest are "31/10/20"

Do a global search/replace on "/" for "." and try it again.

Thanks for your help. With Dayfile viewer/editor I can now see all data and with Data log viewer I can view every imported month.
How can I update Highs and lows in the records section? Or will this be done automatically?

You will have to to use the records editors in admin interface. It will not be done automatically for you.

And this is the point where I have no idea what to do.
In the Dashboard's Edit tab on each of the records links: All time, Monthly, This month, and This year, select one and it will show the records value for each item, compared to the Dayfile value, and Logfile value if you have clicked on the Fetch Monthly Log Data link at the bottom. Then fill in the value and Timestamp columns for each item from either the Dayfile or Logfile column, whichever seems to you to be correct. Do that for each of the four records types.

Enjoy,
Paul
