Re: Cumulus MX and Raspberry Pi 4B rev1.4
Good afternoon
My dasboard, now, Gauges.... works ok!!
But now, when I try to see gauges (for example) in a browser (home/Pi/CumulusMX/webfiles/gauges.htm) I can't see the information
I think I have configured correctly "Config wizard", "program settings", "internet settings",... It is surely silly, but I don't see where the error can be
if someone can help me.
Another thing, I can't send elementary the template data to my website either as I did with Cumulus.. maybe is the same or something similar
Thank you!

Re: Cumulus MX and Raspberry Pi 4B rev1.4
If you are using your browser to access the gauges page through the file system (URL file:///home/Pi/CumulusMX/we files/gauges.htm) then it won't work. It needs to be accessed through a web server not the filesystem. Any web page other than the most simple ones will not work when accessed this way.

In "Enable FTP connection" I done the same that in Cumulus 1.9.4 Build 1099
I have made this come out:
www.calonge-meteoweb.com/cmx/gaugesT.htm
I created a new folder (cmx) and there are a new files*.json + gaugesT.htm
Little by little...

Re: Cumulus MX and Raspberry Pi 4B rev1.4
Hi,
It looks like you have not FTP (one time) all the files and folders from your \CumulusMX\webfiles to your /cmx website.
The data files are there https://www.calonge-meteoweb.com/cmx/raindata.json
but not the .htm files https://www.calonge-meteoweb.com/cmx/index.htm or gauges.htm
Current CumulasMX version webfiles and how they work are different from Cumulus1 and previous CumulusMX versions.
Enjoy,
Paul

Re: Cumulus MX and Raspberry Pi 4B rev1.4
To upload the standard default webfiles, use FileZilla or similar. For the the Remote site click on /cmx to select it, and for Local site highlight to select all the content from \CumulusNX\webfiles and right-click to Upload.Next step is find the way to upload webfiles like gauges.htm, index.htm .... I'll search it at the forum / wikipedia

I need an emoticon "banging my head against a wall" lol
Now, I will try to make GAUGES.HTM works.. maybe is the same problem..
Another thing, it is not the same but I take the opportunity to explain you :
yesterday it rained and CumulusMX marked 0.0mm, do I have to touch something?
it hadn't rained for days and the "error" had not been detected
Thank you so much

Re: Cumulus MX and Raspberry Pi 4B rev1.4
Hi, and glad you got another step completed
For the Gauges, it looks like you may not yet have done the settings:
In Internet settings > Interval Configuration = Real time Interval Settings
[tick] Enable real time, then enter Real time interval - i.e. 10 seconds
[tick] Enable real time FTP
[tick] Generate and [tick] FTP Transfer for both realtime.txt and realtimegauges.txt
Re the 0.0 mm rain, that should display if the station has detected rain. The log files in MXdiags folder may show some diagnostics so have a look there or zip and attach the file in a reply post. Also tell us when it rained that did not get recorded.
Enjoy,
Paul

Re: Cumulus MX and Raspberry Pi 4B rev1.4
Good Evening!!
For irrelevant reasons, I couldn't finish setting up the raspberry with CumulusMX until January 1st.
It seems that everything works. I'm lovin 'it!! You can see it on my website www.calonge-meteoweb.com or https://www.calonge-meteoweb.com/cmx/gauges.htm. Thank you very much for your help!!
But today, there is a problem... Last tonight it has rained (from 3:00h to 4:00 more o less). The console marks 3.3mm but CumulusMX 0.1mm
The pages that go directly to the console (WOW, WeatherUnderground, WeatherCloud), work correctly, but not those generated by CumulusMX.
I have Cumulus MX version 3.14.1 b3160 running on my Raspberry. have I to do something? Is it any wrong configuration?
Thanks a lot

Re: Cumulus MX and Raspberry Pi 4B rev1.4
Hello
This evening, on the program "Els temps" (The weather) on the Catalan regional television they have given 19.3º as data of the maximum temperature today in my town. It was a mistake since the maximum was 12.2º. I have verified that the data that was being sent was yesterday's!
I have a jump between the data from day 3 to 5. I think it is a problem that yesterday I was working with the monthly records ... but I will be more attentive in case it happens again.
Now, when the day has changed, the error has been fixed and yesterday's rain appeared on the screen. I have corrected data, but in the monthly and annual total it would have to come out 3.4mm (tomorrow I will find where to change the data)
It was only to comment with you since I have found the error of the "phantom" rain
Good night and thank you very much
Cheers
