Cumulus and Weathercloud
« on: January 08, 2019, 05:14:27 PM »
Hello all,

Looking for some help, I switched to Cumulus 1.9.4 build 1099 and trashed Weatherlink today and found it will upload to Weathercloud. I done the setup and made a initial connection to Weathercloud but it does not update past the initial connection... Any suggestions?

https://app.weathercloud.net/d0057819529#current

Thanks
Bernie

CumulusMX has it as a built in option, and for Cumulus 1 this may be helpful https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=16995&p=130770&hilit=weathercloud#p130770

Enjoy,
Paul

I presume you are running the \cumulus-weathercloud\weathercloud.exe program that is needed for Cumulus 1, and have followed the instructions in readme.txt

Is the ..\cumulus-weathercloud\weathercloud_realtime.txt being updated at your set interval?
Also is ..\cumulus_weathercloud\weathercloud_realtime_template.txttmp being created/replaced at each processing interval?

Is there anything in ..\cumulus_weathercloud\WaetherCloudLogger-log.txt that would indicate success or error?

Enjoy,
Paul

Where do I find this information? I can tell you I tried to locate the \cumulus_weathercloud\WaetherCloudLogger-log.txt with no luck. I would of assumed it would of been in the cumulis weathercloud folder but no.

In my case these files are all in the Cumulus sub folder where weathercloud is installed C:\Cumulus\Cumulus-add_ons\cumulus-weathercloud\

p.s. I had a typo in "Is there anything in ..\cumulus_weathercloud\WaetherCloudLogger-log.txt that would indicate success or error?"
and SB "Is there anything in ..\cumulus_weathercloud\WeatherCloudLogger-log.txt that would indicate success or error?"

Enjoy,
Paul

Do you actually have the weathercloud.exe program running 24/7?

Enjoy,

Okay now I am confused.... Not surprised thought lol.... weathercloud is a program that has to run separately? When I was using Weatherlink.com to feed weathercloud nothing else had to run.

For Cumulus 1 it was not built-in the program (I think this version stopped new development before WeatherCloud existed).  For the later developed CumulusMX it is built in like in Weatherlink and others.
A third-party module was created to have Cumulus 1 upload to WeatherCloud  see https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=11998&p=103927&hilit=weathercloud#p104663 


Enjoy,
Paul
