How do i set up cumulus toolbox to process realtimelog.php and where does it makes the new realtime.log?

I have not used the Toolbox in a long time so I cannot remember how to set it up. If you use the setting suggested in the previous message, the 'realtimelog.php' script should produce its 'realtime.log' file in the same directory - on my computer/server, all three files ie: 'realtimelog.php', 'realtime.txt' and 'realtime.log' are in the same directory.

i do have the realtime.txt and realtimelog.php in the same directory. But there is no realtime.log

There is a file thats called realtimelog.txt and this is in it:

this is only a little piece...

It looks like a realtime.log file... Is it possible that cumulus takes it and uploads it as a realtime.log file?

EDIT:
Cumulus now uploads realtimelog.txt to http://www.weerstationniawier.nl/nieuwe ... altime.log .

When i try to open realtimelog.php http://www.weerstationniawier.nl/nieuwe ... imelog.php it gives the error:
Warning: fopen(realtime.log): failed to open stream: Permission denied in D:\www\weerstationniawier.n\www\nieuwegrafieken\realtimelog.php on line 131 Unable to open file

maybe cumulus cant translate realtimelog.txt to realtime.log right?

what permissions do i have to check? or what should be changed?

Dont get it...

[beteljuice]

Warning: fopen(realtime.log):

#
# The datafile MUST exist and MUST be chmod 0666 to work as the webserver
# Needs to have permission to write to this file.

[dvandellen]

how?

i dont host my website by myself...

[beteljuice]

Whatever ftp program you normally use to transfer files to your webspace will usually have a <right-click> on files / directories where you can view / edit permissions. Or you may be able to do it from a control panel on your providers site.

If you don't have a CHMOD option, but you see tick boxes with read, write, execute - then 'tick' the first two write(s)

[dvandellen]

YES

Thanks i changed the rights at my providers website... didnt even know it was possible

Now it says http://www.weerstationniawier.nl/nieuwe ... imelog.php, is this ok?

What do i have to change next?, because http://www.weerstationniawier.nl/nieuwe ... n/baro.php still gives some errors...

[beteljuice]

You've left debug ON in realtimelog.php (you could have just used .php?debug=1)

Still something wrong with the paths for baro.php (GraphSettings.php ?) to find realtime.log, although it does exist.

[dvandellen]

yes i got it... baro.php is working

But... there are a few graphs not working... see link> http://www.weerstationniawier.nl/nieuwe ... -graph.php

it looks like some pictures are missing
How can i fix this?

[gemini06720]

i do have the realtime.txt and realtimelog.php in the same directory. But there is no realtime.log

You must have changed something in the 'realtimelog.php' script - the default setting are:

Code: Select all

$SITE['version']        = "2.0";
$SITE['home']           = "YOU MUST SET THIS";
$SITE['datafile']       = "realtime.log";
$SITE['source']         = "realtime.txt";

With the default settings, 'realtimelog.php' will read the file 'realtime.txt' and produce the file 'realtime.log'.

There is a file thats called realtimelog.txt...

Obviously, you have modified the name of the file to be produced by the 'realtimelog.php' script! By default, the 'GraphSettings.php' configuration file as well as the graphic producing scripts ('baro.php, 'dewpt.php', 'intemp.php', 'rain.php', 'temp.php', 'wind.php' and 'winddir.php') are all expecting the file 'realtime.log' to produce the weather graphics (default settings in 'GraphSettings.php'):

Code: Select all

$SITE['version']        = "3.1";
$SITE['hloc']           = "./";
$SITE['jpgraphloc']     = "./jpgraph/src/";
$SITE['datafile']       = "realtime.log";
$SITE['sitename']       = "YOUR SITE NAME";

So, if your 'realtimelog.txt' file looks like my ''realtime.log' file that is because something somewhere is changing the name...

Is it possible that cumulus takes it and uploads it as a realtime.log file?

Cumulus will not change the name of a file unless you setup Cumulus to rename the file as it is uploaded.

there are a few graphs not working

Indeed, the 'temp.php', 'intemp.php', 'rain.php', and 'winddir.php' are still displaying error messages - I just un-Zip the 'Cumulus PHP JpGraph Graphs' package into the directory where my Cumulus files/scripts/templates reside and after a few minor modifications, I was able to view all the graphs.

Here is a link to the 'Cumulus PHP JpGraph Graphs' after a bit of customizing: [link removed]

[dvandellen]

I have checked my files and i did not rename them to realtimelog.txt
So i have setup cumulus to to rename it to realtime.log


What do you mean with: ?

I just un-Zip the 'Cumulus PHP JpGraph Graphs' package into the directory where my Cumulus files/scripts/templates reside and after a few minor modifications, I was able to view all the graphs.

What minor modifications? And what files did you placed at your scripts/templates directory?

[gemini06720]

What do you mean with...
What minor modifications? And what files did you placed at your scripts/templates directory?

That I unpacked the original 'Cumulus PHP JpGraph Graphs' package (downloaded from TNet site), made the required basic modifications (such as setting the required paths), and then loaded 'samp-graph.php' script into my browser - all the weather graphics displayed properly in my browser...

I placed the files contained within the ZIP into their own sub-directory (and not directly into the directory where the Cumulus-produced files are located) - on my server, that would be into the 'cumulus/graph' directory, 'the 'cumulus' directory being one directory below the root directory.
