Low humidity time wrong in 1.9.1

Post by RayProudfoot »

Steve,

I've manually added High and Low Humidity webtags to my today / yesterday page but I think the Low Humidity Today time is incorrect. It shows as 04:26 but looking at the graph it looks like low humidity was reached at 14:26.

I like the changes you've made. :D
Cheers,
Ray, Cheshire.

Thanks Steve. I'm attaching a screenshot so you can check I've used the correct tags.

Ray,

This happened to me too but was corrected when the midnight rollover occurred. All tags show correct values since.

I have the same issue; I wondered if it was just affecting Davis users, but clearly not, so that's useful information, thanks.

The tags look OK, Ray, and it affects the 'standard' pages too, so it must be a bug in Cumulus somewhere...

Firstly, I couldn't find my message on the 1.9.1 thread and was sensing I'd been censored. :shock:

Dan / Steve, thanks for confirming you had the problem too. I'll keep an eye on it but so far today it looks okay.
Cheers,
Ray, Cheshire.

The 1.9.1 thread? That was just a post made by Ned with his comments. Where I asked people to start a new thread for new problems. It makes it much harder to keep track and make sensible replies when there are lots of people reporting different problems in the same thread.

I've looked through the code and so far can't see anything obviously wrong (but clearly there is something wrong). I'm wondering if the problem occurs when you stop and start Cumulus - but again, I can't see anything wrong with the code that saves the data to today.ini and reads it back in again...

My remark was tongue-in-cheek Steve and I missed your request for a separate thread for each bug.

It might be related to a stop/start but I only stop it to update to a newer version. If nothing untoward happens over the next few days I'll just forget it. It's still behaving itself today.

Apologies for grumpy reply; I'm having a crap week.

Having looked at my data again, I think mine was OK. I would expect it to be incorrect the first day you run the new version (for 'today') and for the the first two days (for 'yesterday') but not incorrect in the way it is for you. But I agree that the thing to do is ignore it for a couple of days and then see if it behaves after that. I'll keep an eye on mine too.

No apology necessary Steve. Sorry to hear you're not having the best of times. If I told you I was a Liverpool supporter would it make you feel better? ;)

Roger that.
