Here are two captured Records pages, showing different data:

How do I fix this?

It looks like it is picking up the data from somewhere else, and from a set of data where you have changed units after you first ran Cumulus, so you have a mixture of units, e.g. Highest Pressure 1007.490 in - that's actually a mb value.

You're running Windows 7; which folder have you installed Cumulus into?

C:\Program Files (x86)\Cumulus

You haven't taken the advice to install outside Program Files, so you have this situation:

In addition, it appears that sometimes you are running Cumulus with administrator privilege, so Windows is allowing it to use the Program Files location for its data, with the result that you now have two different sets of data.

All I do is double click on the icon on my desktop, never specifying anything special.

I have reinstalled into C:\Cumulus, I'll see how it goes.



OOPS...same problem. A manual web update show good data, automatic show bad.

Looking at your web site, you appear to have Cumulus and Weatherlink updating at the same time. I assume, therefore, that you are using Virtual VP, and you have two copies of Cumulus running at the same time, one of which has the bad data.

Only one copy of Cumulus is/was running.

But I am running Virtual VP, with info being passed to Cumulus and Weatherlink via TCP.

Weatherlink and Cumulus seem to be updating 6 minutes apart, without manual intervention.

You have two copies of Cumulus updating the web site at the same time. Your site says it is updated every 10 minutes, but it is actually being updated twice every 10 minutes, once at x:x6 and again at x:x9. The x:x9 update has the bad data.

Thanks Steve, I had one copy running on my Win7 box, and another on a laptop.

With the laptop's internet cable removed, MY problem is now fixed.

Thanks again,
