Upload Issue

<< < (2/4) > >>

Ravenstar:
Try turning off the upload to APRS and have only the schedule for your web site run and see what happens, watch the WL dialog box.

If it still fails try checking the [Passive] mode box under Internet settings in WL if it's not checked already, or if it is checked uncheck it. They may have changed a setting on your host server.

tinplate:
The error message WL gives is a little misleading. Actually, the APRS data is not sent via FTP. It uses a much simpler protocol on using the Telnet port (23).

The first thing I would try is changing the APRS server to which you're sending data. There is a list of them here:
http://mywebpages.comcast.net/dshelms/cwop.html#How%20does%20CWOP%20Data%20get%20to%20NOAA?

If that doesn't work, try downloading VPLive http://www.softwx.com/weather/vplive.html and configure it to send to aprs.

If both of these are unsuccessful, then it is likely something changed in windows. If VPLive works but WL doesn't, then you can concentrate on the problem being in WL.

Steve, from his post he's not having trouble uploading to APRS, it fails with the upload to his web site, least that's the way I read it.

However, at this point weather link will download data from the data logger, connect to the internet via dialup, upload data to APRS then hang up skipping the internet upload to my webserver via ftp

Oops.


nevermind  :oops:

Anole:
Are you _absolutely_ certain that your ftp connection settings in WL are correct? Double check that your server, login and PW are all correct. If they are, then try toggling "Passive Mode" to see if that makes any difference.
