It's downloading the entire contents of the logger, which takes a long time. It thinks that the last time it ran was on the 8th of April rather than the 4th of August; it looks like you have the Windows 7 regional settings problem. See the link at the top of the forum -"Important! All Windows 7 users... etc". Once you've fixed that, before you start Cumulus again you will need to check today.ini and make sure the "timestamp" line in there uses the correct date format for your system; if not, correct it.

im sorry i must not get you, i checked Regional and Language Options and they are okay. cumulus only started this 2 days ago. so the date should be fine

i checked Regional and Language Options and they are okay.

But have you actually carried out the described procedure? Did you read the message linked to carefully, including the part where it says "even if they apparently have the correct format in the control panel".

Your date format as supplied by Windows 7 to Cumulus is: "8/5/2010" i.e month/day/year

Is that correct? I thought that format was only used in the USA? The format in your today.ini file is "4/8/2010".

here is my .ini

I have no idea why you sent me your cumulus.ini file. Why don't you just follow the instructions?

[pacificblue03]

ok i fixed it, had to delete today.ini and now it works
