Graphs started again after PC reboot

Post by hills »

My uploads to my website were timing out I suspect due to problems with my ISP, but I rebooted my PC just in case. There was an error shutting down Cumulus, but I thought that was due to the fact it was hung trying to update my web site. Now after restarting Cumulus all my graphs have restarted as though there is no history.

My data files look ok, sh what do I need to do to get Cumulus to record old data in the graphs?

The graphs are populated at start up from the data in the log files, so it's almost certainly a problem in there. It's possible that the error at close down caused a corruption in the log file. There will most likely be an error message near the beginning of the latest diags file which should tell you where the problem is. If you have trouble finding it, attach your May log file and I'll have a look.

Ok I'm embarrassed. Using my own info posted above I found a blank line in the log file.

Thanks for the info Steve!!

That's where your corruption is. There are a string of NUL characters on the front of the entry for 07/05/10 at 14:59:
