Hello,
I would like to upload some extra data like soil temperature to wunderground with Cumulus MX.
I already tried to edit the cumulus.ini as described in this post viewtopic.php?f=2&t=10777#p95209, but it does not seem to work.
Is this feature implemented in MX, or am I doing something wrong.
Regards,
Stefan

Re: Upload extra sensor data to Wunderground
The code is in MX, and I can't see any reason why it wouldn't work. Did you edit Cumulus.ini with MX stopped? If you turn on debug logging (and unset 'rapid fire' temporarily if you have that set) then the MXdiags file will show the string being sent to WU. Note that problems with WU uploads are often due to problems at WU, see other recent posts about this.
Silly question: You do actually have a Davis station, with a soil temperature sensor? Your forum profile says otherwise.

Re: Upload extra sensor data to Wunderground
Thank you for your quick answer.
I enabled debug logging and I send the following to wunderground:
This means for me the soil temperature is beeing sent to wu.
If I look on wunderground no soiltemp ist displayed. So it seems to be an issue with wu, I also checked the upload protocol documentation again and everything should work fine.

Has anyone an idea what else could be wrong with my wu account?
Concerning the station - i have my selfmade station, emulating a Davis station for communication with cumulus.

Perhaps there isn't anything wrong with your account, it's just a WU bug which seems to not affect everyone.
On the WU webpage, try to change the display units to ºF and you will see that your Soil Temperature will be shown correctly.
I reported this problem to WU some months ago, after some time (a month or so) I get a reply from them telling me that it could be a bug, but until now seems they haven't corrected it.
