Weather Diary v This Month Discrepancy

Post by grapee »

Hi

I have had a search through the forum and I can't find any reference to this - apologies in advance if I've missed it or if I've cocked up again.

I have logged in the weather diary from 5th January to 13th January inclusive, Snow falling and from the 5th to 14th Snow lying.

However, if I look at This Month under View it displays Days with snow falling 4 and Days with snow lying 5.
By my reckoning it should read 9 and 10.

Anybody else have this or is it just me ?

For a day to count towards 'this month' etc, there has to be an entry in dayfile.txt, so I suspect that's where your problem lies. Have a look at it and see if you have any days missing, or there is some sort of corruption. You can also look in the diags files to see if there are any messages about problems reading dayfile.txt.

Thanks Steve - I am a complete idiot - I had forgotten that I had re-installed Cumulus on the 10th having installed and not read the Readme file ! :roll:

Rest assured I am not normally this dim - I think I'm at a funny age :)

Thanks for another rapid response - pity people like you don't work for BT or SKY or British Gas etc etc !
