Uploaded file goes into black hole!

Post by goldrush »

Probably a "senior moment" finger problem!!!

I am trying to set up custom html pages, some of which I wish to process and upload in real time (30 secs) but others at 10 mins. I have enabled real time and set to 30 secs and enabled on the appropriate files, and enabled auto update and set to 10 mins
I find that the only way files are actually uploaded into my web server are those which have "real time" enabled.
If this is not enabled then although the Cumulus FTP log shows the "10 min" file (weather2.html) as being uploaded.. and although all other files actually "arrive" the file not enabled under "real time" (shown as uploaded) goes down a black hole and dissapears.

It does not appear to matter if "process" is set or not, file still dissapears!

Changing directory to images
Sending graph files
Uploading C:\wdisplay\webfiles\weather2.html

Looking at the file list on the server weather2.html is missing (realtime enabled files updated ok)

Sorry about that. I changed the order that I did the uploads to try to be helpful, and broke it for most people as I assumed a full path was being supplied. It's discussed in the previous thread:
