Re: Charts Trends
Strange,
I'm running 3 installs here.
Windows one is fine, but the two other stations on Pi3 & 4's are not displaying console charts correctly.
Pi3 one has data at the bottom but no traces in the graph area, but the tool-tip pops up with valid data.
Pi4 one has only a few options at the bottom.
All 3 are regularly updated.

Re: Charts Trends
Restarting MC on the Pi4 fixed its issue.
It did report some errors when I stopped the service.

Re: Charts Trends
I have the same issue but only on the Tablet (Samsung, Android, FireFox).
On the tablet it is also impossible to change settings.
On the PC everything is normal.

Re: Charts Trends
I've recently migrated from Cumulus 1 to Cumulus MX
Initially I moved the weather station / logger on the MX to ensure connectivity and gain an understanding how MX worked.
Once satisfied that everything was OK, I reconnected the logger to the computer running C1 to update the historic data files, then moved the C1 data folder to the CMX database in order that the historical data was available on CMX.
The Dashboard, gauges, charts, today /yesterday, records, pages all appear to be OK, but The Charts page, other than the white "display" area and the "buttons" at the bottom of the page contains no data at all.
For clarity all seemed to work OK before I transferred the Data folder
I've since reinstalled CMX, but no improvement. Any suggestions please?

Re: Charts Trends
Please try switching on debug logging, looking at the pages again, then post the latest MXdiags file here. You can switch off the debug logging once you have collected the file.

Re: Charts Trends
Thanks Water01 and Mark for replying.
I don't recall the graph settings being changed- and they did work for a while-but will check
Mark - I'll post later today - thanks

Attached is hopefully the right log file. it covers 08.55 to 15.30, but I tried without success to open the graphs pages first thing this morning
Thanks for taking the time to look at this

Re: Charts Trends
Just rechecked my remote pi3 & it's showing issues, but only on the Temp & Wind Dir charts.
They have no traces, but still showing the correct data in the popup when I move the mouse over the chart area.
My pi4 install, which is another Ecowitt locally is operating fine.
One other thing I did notice before I first encountered the charts issue was that one morning my Laptops WLL test install was running with high CPU usage.
On checking the 3 others; Main W10 on the VP2 Console & the two EW rPi's, it turn out that all 4 of the running installs had higher than normal CPU usage.

Re: Charts Trends
For clarity - all charts affected and the area of the screen for the graphs to be "drawn" on is blank and moving the mouse across does not reveal a popup.
