I installed the program as per your site and I connected the Oregon WMR928nx station on the rs-232 port but unfortunately it does not connect. When I go to run sudo mono on the terminal it gives me the following errors that I send them. If you can help me, thank you. Regards.

if you care to look at the screen shots you have posted it says Specified port number not open.
find out what com port your serial is plugged into and assign that in the Cumulus.ini

You are running build 3042, that is very old. I would advise to upgrade.
And while you are at it, please check the versions status of Mono and Linux as well.
The most likely cause is rooted in version incompatibility.

It's 3043 but it's still ancient and should be trying a newer version

if you care to look at the first screenshot.
it says near the bottom:
Code: Select all
An error has occurred - please zip up the MXdiags folder and post it in the forum.
Where is your zip file?

Tonight I tried to install CumulusMX version 3.0.0.0 build 3044 but to my surprise I am again with problems that I post with screenshots.
Thanks for your help.

We go right back to the first response above which you have not really answered.
What are you entering in Cumulus MX as the serial port name?

What do you mean by serial port name? tcp port? on the configuration of the oregon? The number 22222 is entered.

I think he means the name of the comport entry in cumulus.ini
like so:
Code: Select all
ComportName=/dev/ttyUSB0
or
ComportName=COM1
