Temperature graph stopped updating

[ColinJS]

Hi,

Strange problem this morning. All the other graphs are fine, but the large outside temperature graph is stuck at 11pm last night. The thumbnail seems OK.

The start time for the actual graph lines seems to be moving on, i.e. when I first looked the graph started at 6am. But now it starts at 7.45. The background grid is stuck at 11pm-11am. The timestamp of the file is being updated.

I see no strange entries in the log for 11pm last night. The effect can be seen on my website, which is linked in the sig, I think.

Yesterday the PC was off from approx 9am to 10pm. And come to think of it, my rollover is 9am. And the PC definitely wasn't on at 9.12 (when an hourly process should have got logged). So I have to look into sorting out the rollover. But would that account for the odd graph? Why only the outside temp, not inside temp, or wind or anything else.

Any ideas? Thanks,

Hi again,

I noticed that my scheduler was also behaving inconsistently, so I rebooted the PC. That seems to have sorted it out. Still don't really know why that one graph went wrong, but it works so leaving alone.

Cheers,

The only explanation I can think of is a bug in the third-party graphs component that Cumulus uses. If there had been an error detected plotting the outside temperature graph, it would give up, log an error to the diags file "Error plotting graphs:" and not plot the remaining graphs - humidity, pressure etc, and that apparently wasn't the case.

Hi Steve,

I did a grep on the files in the Diags directory - nothing. Just chalk it up as a one-off, I guess. Still behaving at present.

Thanks,
Colin
