It sounds like you haven't created the images folder, which is where those images get uploaded by Cumulus. It's hard to say, though, without a link to your web site.

Some of your graph images are also missing. The files missing are the ones from windrose.png onwards (in the order they are uploaded). Could you check to see if all of the files are being created (and look OK) in the web/images folder in Cumulus, and if not, have a look in the diags files to see if there is an error message in that respect.
If the files are being created, it's presumably some sort of ftp problem, so turn on ftp logging and attach the ftplog.txt file after an attempted upload.

They should be there, but you're running Windows 7 and ignored the advice at the start of the readme during the installation. So:
http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/FAQ#I_can. ... a_files.21
The log shows a timeout while uploading windrose.png:
18:43:22:332 ! Next3PutAsync
18:43:36:037 ! Aborting
18:43:36:037 ! HighLevelAsync 0
18:43:36:037 ! Abort detected
No response from the server for 15 seconds, so the transfer times out. Have a look at the windrose.png file on your PC to see if it looks reasonable. Other than that, I don't really know what to suggest, it would appear to be a problem with your ftp server.

Hi Steve,
I reinstalled outside the programs(x86) and the files appeared.
There was still a problem with ftp though so I used cute ftp to upload. FTP issue will be because I am on satellite internet, I had to adjust the send buffers on cute ftp to resolve timeout issues. Is there a way of playing with the ftp settings?
Thanks
Jeff

Possibly - I would have to put a change in to allow it, if it's possible. What settings exactly did you have to change in cuteftp?

Hi
I set the global bandwith to 60k bytes and both buffer at about 80k and it works great on my satellite.
Thanks

There doesn't seem to be any way I can change those, with the ftp component that I use

Hi Steve
Thanks for letting me know.
It isn't a big issue for me, I am mainly using it ro locally log wind speed at various locations prior to installing a wind turbine.
The weather station is currently 2 metres off the geound, I will move the wind sensers this weeking to about 3.5 meteres off the ground.
See urbanfarmingoz.com.au
I will write it up as a project on this site soon. Happy to mention I used your software as well.
Thanks
Let me know if you want me to test anything for you.
Jeff
