Cumulus Support

My cumulus installation in Spain (watson W8681 Windows 7) gives nonsense all time record information whereas an identical set up (same Watson, Same PC, same software) in UK is OK. On checking I find the date format in all three ini files in Spain is m/d/yyyy, whereas all txt files are in dd/mm/yyyy format. In UK all files, ini or txt are dd/mm/yyyy.
How can I correct this?

The date formats in the ini files are all handled by 'system' code, so unless you've changed your system settings they should be OK.

However: As it's a Windows 7 system, and those dates are in US format, have you read the "Important!" notice linked to at the top of the forum? Assuming that is indeed the problem, once sorted you can then edit the ini files with a text editor, with Cumulus stopped, to do any necessary corrections.

Thanks for the link to the US date problem. I suspect I did that in UK and forgot about it in Spain.
In Spain I had been using Spanish date format.
Unfortunately I have two monthly log files for those months where the first three letters of Spanish and English differ ago10log.txt aug10log.txt ene11log.txt jan11log.txt. And those files differ as to content.
The only changes that were made to the system over 9 months were each month to close down Cumulus, instal Win7 updates, restart and open up Cumulus again. Cumulus seems to have created newly named monthly text files during this process.
Today I changed the system to UK English date format and hopefully that will solve the problem for the future.

Looking more carefully at the monthly log files I see that in some cases Spanish number format has been used. So 6.8 becomes 6,8 which of course ruins the csv files. But there are also long periods where UK number format was used.

Yes, this (and the naming of the log files) is probably another symptom of the Windows 7 problem.
