b4023 realtime.txt upload issue

[CamarilloWX]

i just upgraded from b3283 to b4023 following the procedure. It was fairly painless and it seems to be working well except for the upload of the realtime.txt file. I am getting the following message in the MXdiags log file.

Code: Select all

I reverted back to 3283 and it works fine. Any ideas?

It looks like a problem with FTP logging, I'll have a look at it later today. If you still have the v4 instance available it would be interesting to see if the error went away when FTP logging was enabled in Program Settings

OK, I found the problem. It occurs when you enable FTP, the logger is only initialised on start-up of the MX. So if you restart MX the error should not occur.

I have fixed it for the next build, so the logger is initialised when you enable FTP as well as at start-up.

Thanks for the quick response Mark. I went back to build 4023 and did some testing. The problem occurs when CumulusMX starts with FTP logging enabled. After it starts with FTP logging enabled, the uploads start as soon as FTP logging is disabled. I can then re-enable FTP logging and the uploads continue. Uploads work when starting up with FTP logging disabled. For now I am just leaving FTP logging disabled. Thanks again for your efforts.
