MXdiags file errors

[apple8]

I was checking the config file and thought I would ask about these errors. I have noticed them for some time and don't appear to have any impact that Im aware of. Are they of any concern or fixable?

Seeing the timespan of the log this apparently does not occur with every realtime transfer.
It could be possible your server resets the connection after which CMX cannot do other than reconnect after which it all continues correctly.

You say it occurs more often. At which frequency?

A lot at no set frequency but 24 between 8am and 3pm today as an example.

[HansR]

OK. So a regular frequency with an intentional reset by the server may not apply (I would e.g. expect 24 per day).
But anyway, from CMX point of view it seems OK (the connection is reset and continues well).
If you cannot find a reason for the connection reset just ignore it and go on.

I changed the upload of web\realtimegauges.txt from 15 seconds to 60 seconds. this doesn't fix any thing other than reduce the number of incidents.

In doing this I noticed that the incidents now occur at 106 minute intervals or after 105 successful uploads, not sure if that means anything.

Hi,
It looks like your Internet settings > Real time interval Settings is only uploading realtimegauges.txt (currently at 1-minute interval) as your realtime.txt file is dated 30/09/22 https://blazingcomet.com/weatherMX/realtime.txt
Does the error also appear for realtime.txt if you tick that in Generate and FTP Transfer? Is it then at the same frequency?
Your C1 realtimegauges.txt is also updating at 1-minute interval. Have you noticed if the same thing happens with it? You may need to enable C1 FTP Logging.

Enjoy,
Paul

I did as you suggested and generated FTP for realtime.txt and to date there has been no errors for that file only for realtimegauges.txt at regular intervals.

The C1 files are taken from the MX files via a htaccess file RewriteRule.
