Cumulus Website Loading Problems

Hi, can anyone assist me?

First problem post on the Forum - hope I have put it in the right place. (If I haven't then I apologise).

I have set up a new AWS "Fine Offset" (Maplin N96GY) in my garden and got it working first with the Wireless Weather Forecaster Control Unit, then with the Easyweather Software then setup with Cumulus 1.9.2 Software all ok. I then applied and got a Free Website with Glovine Host and after a few teething problems I can now read my Website (www.biggleswadeweather.freeglovine.com).
However I can see all 8 pages but have the following problems with seeing all the info on my web site :-

Page 1 "Now" All ok but cannot see the Moon Image (just a square box and title where it should be).
Page 2 "Gauges" All ok but cannot see Wind Speed and Wind Direction towards the bottom left and centre of the page (next to Wind Rose which I can see)
Page 3 "Today" All ok but "Days since it last rained is showing "0" is this because it has rained most days! Or is it a problem?
Page 4 "Yesterday" All ok
Page 5 "This Month" All ok
Page 6 "This Year" All ok
Page 7 "Records" All ok
Page 8 "Trends" All ok except for missing top and Bottom Centre Graphs (just squares) ie: Inside Temp and Humidity Graphs
Should there be some specific files in the images and dbimages or root folders for these? Or is there some other likely explanation for these objects being missing?

Also when I look at my website from the Cumulus UK Map (Biggleswade AWS Weather) it loads up but the time does not increment each time I load the page! Is it mean't too?
I have my PC connected all the time back at home or it going into a power save mode or something?

I have further questions in general about Cumulus and some ideas on enhancements but I'll bring these up on a separate post in the near future when I've got things sorted.

I hope someone can assist me - I have been really impressed with things so far.

Regards

You have a number of images missing. The most likely explanation for this is ftp problems, e.g. timeouts, but you need to check on your PC that the missing images are there (in web/images), just to confirm this. Assuming they are on your PC, if you then turn on ftp logging, the ftplog.txt file should show the errors.
Page 3 "Today" All ok but "Days since it last rained is showing "0" is this because it has rained most days! Or is it a problem?
If it rained yesterday, then yes, "days since it last rained" will be zero. But you do have an issue here, because you have no data for yesterday. If you zip up the diags folder and attach it, I should be able to see why that is.
Also when I look at my website from the Cumulus UK Map (Biggleswade AWS Weather) it loads up but the time does not increment each time I load the page! Is it mean't too?
I don't really understand the question. If you're getting a cached copy, then you need to refresh to get the latest. I don't think it's anything to do with the map page.
I have my PC connected all the time back at home or it going into a power save mode or something?
If it's going into power saving, that would account for the lack of yesterday's data.

Steve,
Sorry about that but thanks for pointing the way.

Please find attached the Diags Folder in Zip format as instructed - would appreciate your advice on the lost readings for 28/06/12.

Also this morning when i go into my website (http://www.biggleswadeweather.freeglovine.com) it is showing the latest time as 00:30 I would have expected 09:00 or thereabouts?

regards

It gives the latest data for me when I go to your site (just now it was showing 09:30). It's presumably a caching issue, and I guess it's the same as in this thread: https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=7820. Interesting (or not) that you're both using FreeGlovine. It might be interesting for you to look at each others sites to see if you see the same thing.
