in the last days i have a strange problem: each time i open "comulus" it looks as if it is downloading the data of the whole day but when it is finished i get only the data of the moment of the download. so, the min temp and the max temp is the same... the wind run is zero etc......

in addition to that, when i try to look of yesterday data in "view this period" it doesn't show anything....

can you help me solving the problem?

It looks like Cumulus can't find your original Data. Have you done an upgrade to a different directory than the original install?

What build are you using? What folder have you installed Cumulus to? If you zip up the diags folder and attach it, I'll have a look. Your March log file would probably also be useful.

when loading comulus it DOES find the data of the whole day ( i can see it while it is loading- i can see all data running)
But, when the loading is finished the day begins only in the moment of the loading. after that it gathers all data correctly....

and... from march 19 i can't see the data in view-this period

oh...... while i am attaching the files i have noticed that i attached a file of may 2011........ how come i have such a file when may 2011 hasn't arrived yet?????

how is it possible that the data was in both files ( also mars 2011)????

i am attaching now the mars11 file, so you can compare....


to your question before: no change in the folder comulus is in C.... I used the latest build .

What happens if you rename the May11Log.txt to something else and then run Cumulus?

The clock in your weather station has changed to May:

20/03/2011 22:43:34.545 : hr=22 min=39 d=20 m=5 y=2011

oh! silly me! it had to be the first thing i should look at...... ;)

i deleated the may file. changed the date in my station but, somehow , i don't get the good values in today file. it still giving me wrong values. i guess there is a problem in some files but i don't find them....

maybe i should move back to the previous version ( i have Lacrosse...) where can i find the file to download the previous version? ( the one before build 984)

It's nothing to do with the version of Cumulus, and going back to a previous version won't change the contents of your data files. You will need to tidy up all of the files that have incorrect dates in them, including today.ini, as that may well have a last updated date in May, if the last data that was read came from the logger. Even then, you may find that today's data - particularly rainfall - will not be correct and you may need to adjust it (as described in the FAQ).

thanks for your response!

i took out all the things with may from the files. looking in today.ini , the date is correct. my mars11 log is correct. there is no may11 log anymore. so, i really don't understand why it doesn't load all the correct values from today???

Zip up the diags folder and I'll have a look.

You have errors in dayfile.txt - blank lines?

Other than that, it seems to be working OK now that you've corrected the date on the station.
