I'm not using any web server software This could be the problem. I'm running it through Yawcam. Perhaps I've gone the wrong way about it, and now Yawcam has reached it's limit? So to answer "intercomp", I'm rinning on my XP, and even though I have Silverlight, I don't think I'm actually using it. So I guess now I need to download some server software?

If you weren't running any web server software, I wouldn't be able to see your web site.

I'm running it through Yawcam

So presumably Yawcam is your web server. You need to configure it for the Silverlight MIME types.

By the way - it occurs to me that even if you can get your web server to accept Silverlight files, the whole thing may not work anyway because you're not using the standard http port. In fact, that's almost certainly the reason for the Flash gauges not working.

Silverlight will not work on a local machine without IIS.
It must be hosted by an Internet Sever of some sort. Even BabyWebSSL will work..
Just making a web folder will not work.

I did just put my files in a Yawcam folder and it worked. See for yourself! I guess Yawcam doubles as an Internet Server

Yawcam has a web server as part of the software.

All running good now. Realtime wind data working in gauges.htm (wouldn't work through the Yawcam :8888 port) and CumulusRealtime.html working with no Silverlight issues. Downloaded Abyss Web Server with no port number at the end of my URL!
It's now http://Palmerston-Weather.no-ip.org . I also figured that to check that CumulsRealtime was working to use my //localhost name in the CumulusRealtime.xml (for those that stumble accross the same problems I had). Once I was happy with that I of course changed it back to Now to change my URL in my signature and my other webpages. BFN

I seem to be the only one, but I can never get no-ip.org to resolve your DNS name to an IP address. I always get a DNS failure (both at home direct on the Internet and at work - which routes through a proxy in the USA).

Michael

Have you instructed your gateway/router to use Dynamic DNS for your computer?
Have you installed the no-ip.org software or set the router software to send your dynamic WAN IP address to no-ip.org?

You will still need a port number for your local computer so the router can map your computer IP address to the HTTP port (80) .

It's all running good. So......yes, yes, no (no-ip get the adress every 5 minutes) and yes (although port 80 is the default and not required in the URL). Very good, you score 75% for this test.
