Third Party Uploads Struggles

Hello all.
I've just moved over to CumulusMX from the old version, and on the face of it I have most of what I want working.
I've got FTP uploading to my website, all the sensors are functioning as expected but I'm struggling to get the 3rd party uploads working.
I've enabled APRS which is working fine but my WoW, Metoffice isn't uploading, on checking it seems to have stopped a while ago, even with the old version, I've entered the correct ID and Key but it's not working.
To test things, I created a new Weather Underground account, entered the correct details but that's not uploading either.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Are you really running Windows 7. In that case you might try this registry hack.

Hi Hans, yes - Windows 7, I use it for compatibility with certain radio ham software.
Thanks for the reply, I made a few tweaks and I'm reporting ok now to Weather Underground, even after applying the reg update I'm still not reporting to the Metoffice.
I created a new site too, just keeps saying 'this site is not reporting any observations'.
I'm thinking of taking Cumulus over to a Pi, but that won't be for a while.

Well, the MetOffice Wow is known to intermittently fail to accept. So wait a day and check again.
Catching up is usually/often giving failures.

OK thank you.
I've been having trouble logging onto their site so maybe there's an issue.
