Cumulus Support

I cant't figure out why I dont see data exept rainfall for the yesterday webpage ( in dutch yesterday is 'gisteren')

http://www.apeldoorn.tk/weer/yesterday.htm

The data on my local PC are filled I've attached the yesterday.ini (is stored in /data map the same as today.ini

Could you attach the yesterdayT.htm file from the cumulus 'web' folder?

The forum will not allow the file to be attached so take a copy and rename it as yesterdayT.txt or something

thanks

Hmmm doesn't work even as txt file I'll try to zip it

ah, the forum is cleverer than I thought

You've missed a midnight rollover somehow. yesterday.ini should have today's date, yours has yesterday's. Your 'today' page has times that haven't happened yet today. Zip up the diags folder and attach it, please.

Well thirth try this should be the diag logs in zip

well spotted Steve -- you're good

Well Cumulus looks in the future is this is a great feature

looks like your PC hibernated?

Cumulus can't cope with being hibernated.

Hmmz you are right this morning I saw it was in hibernation justed started up another OS yesterday and forgotten to turn it off when I restarded win7 (wel I've put of hibenation now..)

I'll try to rebuild yesterday.ini thanks for your investigations

You could use the 'Close on Suspend' option on Cumulus' station settings page to force it to close if the PC wants to hibernate.

yesterday.ini isn't important (that data disappears forever tomorrow anyway). What is more important is your other, permanent data; for example you now have a day missing from dayfile.txt.

The easiest way to recover is to stop Cumulus and copy the backup files (that were created when you started at 2216 last night) into the data folder, and then start Cumulus again. It will then download the data from the logger to catch up, and do the rollover properly.

Thanks made the sttings close on suspend hope it doesn't happen again Dane

I already fixed that I had looked in the dayfile.txt and saw a day was missing so I cant wait for tommorow now

Similar has happened to me 3 times over the past two weeks, once when Cumulus went down unexpected, and each time (twice) when I exited Cumulus for routine shut down after running a few days (I am pretty sure in the correct sequence - Exit and Yes in cumulus and then exit VVP). In all 3 times when restarting Cumulus the Yesterday information on the Cumulus program display had no data, nor on the website. In the first 2 times I just waited until the next day to have correct data shown.

When it happend today I copied valid backup from 3 days ago and that brought Yesterday data on the Cumulus program main display (download from datalogger) but not in the website. Anything I should do different?
