CMX stopped working

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).

CMX stopped working

Post by Mapantz »

Just came back home to find that CMX has stopped working.

I restarted it, but it is crashing straight away..

Are Davis' servers down? My WLL will not connect to it, even after rebooting it..

I can't even run CMX ..

Davis weather servers are up and no downtime shown either.

@Mapantz,

Your WL.com site seems current and updating every 1 minute https://www.weatherlink.com/bulletin/26 ... b79e2dc3bf

Enjoy,

It's back working again now.

It went down around 11:40am. It just wouldn't connect at all!

CMX would simply crash because it couldn't connect to the WLL.

Local network issue (temporarily)?

Nope.

Everything else was connected and working.

Something I did notice, the data on my website was working, even though the WLL couldn't connect.

Also, no data was being sent to wunderground/weathercloud/wow. That's why I restarted CMX, but it would crash after a minute, and close down automatically.

I have added a fix to the next build for the crash when CMX tries to get the available sensors from wl.com and it is unreachable.
