Anyone have any suggestions with this ?
Virtual VP periodically will lose connection (via IP) to VWS. Doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. Stopping and restarting VirtualVP solves this. Restarting VWS does nothing constructive. This usually happens every other day or so. But not consistent enough to help resolve this.
Regards
Bill

No it's not ....... If that were the case then restarting VWS would fix the problem. It does not. Restarting VirtualVP does fix the problem. Bill |

I've seen VWS report it can't connect to the com port after restarted by StartWatch, I just have to restart the whole computer. Dunno why.

Nope, because the usual scenario is that one application goes "offline" while the others are happily communicating just fine with the Davis. Seriously I have looked at this from a few angles now. VVP is somehow not allowing a socket connection to a port randomly. Sometimes VWS, but sometimes Weatherlink, rarely - Both. I have also tried another computers VWS connecting up via IP/Socket running a different version of VWS. It's not VWS. Restarting VVP clears this up. Which actually closes the socket and forces a clean reopen. And then communication can happen again. Bill |

I've had that issue for awhile now and it happened just today again. Only shutting down the software without rebooting the computer will not fix it. Which is different from the past where restarting VVP solved it. It's not only a VWS issue for me. I also on rare occasions see it while connecting my laptop though my home network via VVP and I have had WeatherLink drop connection. Might run a week or a month before losing connection to the port again. I figure it is still some sort of a timing issue requiring proper alignment of the stars and moon being so intermittent.   |

note this is an IP data logger issue, which is not related to a normal com port connection

Hi Mark,
Steve from SoftWx has given me a new executable which may solve this problem. I'll follow up in a few days if it fixes things.
Regards
Bill

Did this issue get resolved. I've got the same behavior going on with VWS running on XP and VVP on a windows 2008 R2 server. It works fine till it locks up but then it's a huge problem trying to get it to reestablish communications (reboot, restart, change the TCP port #, etc).

Just had this happen last night. 1st night running vvp and it looks like last update was 8:33 last night. Had to reboot computer to reconnect. My issue was vvp to vantage as both vws and wl were not connected and vvp showed broken connection.

Same problem here. VWS loses connection to VVP, though VPLive continues to run no problem. Closing and restarting VWS does nothing. Running Win7.

Do you have VWS set to restart if communications lost for 5 minutes?
Do you have VVP set to temporally release connection once per minute?

Yes, I do.
I think I've tried everything that you can try, including disabling the transmission to the server weatherlink.com.
After about ten minutes the connection between software and VVP is lost and the only solution is to reboot VVP. However, the problem persists.
But if I connect directly the software to the IP data logger, there is no problem.
I use WeatherLink and VWS associated with VVP with two virtual IP.
