It is easy when you know how to do it....
Cumulus will not upload data on database.. Cumulus toolbox sends data in files on a remote server and from there a cron job upload data on data base ... It is how It's work in my case
Thus, database will load by data with the help, not from my friends
, but with a help of cron Job which is set on a remote server and your host must be capable to do that…..
The answer to you first question is the following:
Cumulus toolbox got to set to upload your data file using the FTP protocol and is as follows:
Open Toolbox / File / setup / upload files (ftp) / add ..... and then just fill what you want / need
Local file name is the file on your PC which you want to upload, while the remote file name is the file on the server to which you want your file to upload.
As I understand in your case it would be three files
a) C / Cumulus / data / Dayfile
b) C / Cumulus / data / some monthfile
c) C / Cumulus / realtimelog.txt
This realtimelog text file will be form by Cumulus toolbox also because this file does not exist on Cumulus original configuration. You must do that by Cumulus toolbox also .... File / setup / realtime.txt ..... only fulfill what is required
Regarding your second question I am not sure whether I understood well but probably do not know the answer, but I think that in any case there is a solution ... for beginning I suppose that your data format is dd.mm.yyyy?
If you ask me your question is not precise enough...
Good luck!
