Both the MySQL version and the Jgraphs version assume you are using SteelSeries gauges with Cumulus MX and want to produce the graphs that appear when you run the mouse over the any particular gauge. graphTempOut.php produces the graph for the gauge that shows you the outside temperature.

Therefore graphTempOut.php should be linked to the page that produces your gauges by using the .htaccess file in the zip file for the version you are using.

oh not at all.. I use steel gauges and have for a long time. Maybe it has something to do with the way I migrated to cumulusMX?

see here
http://www.marton-weather.co.uk/wxssgauges.php

the pop up works but is showing the old data from the old graphs that haven't been updated since the day I migrated. I checked again in the cumulusMX settings and I have "Include graph data files" checked. This is going to be one of those "you stupid boy" moments I can feel it :S

I just used graphTempOut.php as a test link Mark did in a previous post.

Thanks for the replies.

Well, the examples provided with JPGraph, for instance http://www.marton-weather.co.uk/jpgraph ... index.html. It looks like your JPGraph configuration is wrong - or you do not have PHP 5?

Ah thank you. I do have php 5.5 soba configuration issue. Food for thought.

Mark,

Thank you for raising the bar. You make me keep my head in the books.

I've looked through the thread and only see the mySQL version on the first page, while the text with the "link" says it's ver .3, however opening the graphsettings file it says ver .2 Just wondering if I'm missing something.

On another note, I'm wondering about your mySQL db's. How frequently do you update the "realtime" file and are you running a chron job to do so?

When I have updated those files I haven't updated the versions in all of them, only the changed file(s).

I update my real time table once a minute, I used to use a cron job, but since running CumulusMX I use the feature in MX that allows you to insert directly into the database - and the custom options allow a different time period from both your real time and logger periods. My Cumulus real time is 5 seconds for instance, and logging 5 minutes, MySQL real time 60 seconds.

I've got the mySQL running, working on the database but while trying to get the CumulusMX version to display I get this. I suspect it's a path error but I've tried everything in the jpg-config file to lead the jpgraph?????. php to the json file with no luck. Any ideas?

It looks like the path to jp-graph is OK, but no data is being returned from the database.

I could do with adding a debugging option to these scripts...

Just to be sure that I've explained myself, I'm trying both versions to see which process works best for me. Longterm I'll probably go with the mySQL as I want to incorporate several of the features you have on your site.

I've got the mySQL versions running, I just need to resolve my database issues, for now I'm populating the data manually, I'm working on establishing a chron job. I'm in the process of learning how to set up a chron process. http://squeakysands-inn.net/images1/graphPress.php

The problem I am having is with the versions that are using the json data files provided by MX. It would seem that the chart PHP is either not finding the json file or not able to import the data. http://squeakysands-inn.net/images/graphPress.php

How would I go about
adding a debugging option to these scripts...
?

Thanks for all the help.

Steve

Hi everyone
My Steelseries weathergauges work o.k. and my graphTempOut.php and other graph.php's work o.k. in browser. Those php:s get data from my SQL. I use Cumulus MX ver. b3031.
For example: Trends temp out jpgraph. But how can I point the gauges.js to where the scripts are? I know, this is stupid question, but I cannot to get SteelSeries gauges popups to work without help :oops: :oops: ...
Thanks in advance..

Use the .htaccess file that Mark supplied in the .zip file and put it into the directory where the images are held.

Nothing happens... Should I write those php:s addresses somewhere? Or What should I do? I saved that .htaccess in same folder, where those php.s are, but nothing still happens? Only empty pic and those writed values.... Should I make some changes in that .htaccess, or what..? I just don't have enough skills to solve this prob... I managed to do iframes from those php:s, so they are working o.k. although I think, but that pop up is not working for me...

So according to your previous post the images are in http://www.kapoweather.net/kuvat/ so that is where the .htaccess should be which causes a reference for example to temp.png to translate that into a call to http://www.kapoweather.net/kuvat/graphTempOut.php

You should have the .htaccess set up so that a reference to xxxxxxx.png causes a call to the relevant PHP code so they should refer to the .png files you are making gauges.js look for in config.tipImgs for example

Code: Select all

               config.tipImgs = [                                  // config.tipImgs for Cumulus users using the 'default' weather site
                    ['temp.png', 'intemp.png'],                     // Temperature: outdoor, indoor
                    // Temperature: dewpoint, apparent, windChill, heatIndex, humidex
                    ['temp.png', 'temp.png', 'temp.png', 'temp.png', 'temp.png'],
                    'raint.png',                                    // Rainfall
                    'rain.png',                                     // Rainfall rate
                    ['hum.png', 'hum.png'],                         // Humidity: outdoor, indoor
                    'press.png',                                    // Pressure
                    'wind.png',                                     // Wind speed
                    'windd.png',                                    // Wind direction
                    (config.showUvGauge ? 'uv_image.jpg' : null),         // UV graph if UV sensor is present | =null if no UV sensor
                    (config.showOzoneGauge ? 'ozonedu.png' : null),   // Ozone rad graph if Ozone sensor is present | Ozone =null if no Ozone sensor
                    (config.showRoseGauge ? 'windd.png' : null),    // Wind direction if Rose is enabled | =null if Rose is disabled
                    (config.showCloudGauge ? 'cloudbase.png' : null)    // Pressure for cloud height | =null if Cloud Height is disabled
Looks like you are using the Saratoga software so you have to match that area in gauges.js.
