currentlogfile tag at month change [Implemented]
Hi
I upload current log to my website for graphics every 15 minutes with currentlogfile web tag in Extra web files. Problem is when it is month's change at 0:00 in day 1 it is uploaded the new month and not the previous and thus the last month is left without the last 15 minutes ....
It can be uploaded the previous month at 0:00 in day 1 of each month ?
Thanks

Re: currentlogfile tag at month change
I like these sorts of suggestions, solves a problem, and takes a minute to implement
Done for the next release. It will continue with the previous months log file name for the logging interval + 1 minute after the month rollover.

Re: currentlogfile tag at month change
OK. Note that this is not a webtag!
It is specifically something for Extra Webfiles.

Re: currentlogfile tag at month change
In the source just use the tag (MX knows where the log files are), in the destination you can use a path along with the tag.

Re: currentlogfile tag at month change
I'm trying to copy files with a variable name to another folder on my computer.
What am I doing wrong that it doesn't work?

Re: currentlogfile tag at month change
The destination should not have a # in it

Re: currentlogfile tag at month change
Removing the # sign and unsigned "Upload" helped.
Now the files copy correctly.

Re: currentlogfile tag at month change
You should also untick "process", log files do not contain any web tags that need processing.
