Re: blank ui
Same problem as in your other thread - https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=14427
I don't know what is causing it. Debug logging still not turned on, which doesn't help.

Re: blank ui
That turns it on temporarily. You have to edit Cumulus.ini.
The last thing it's done, according to the diags log, is to attempt to write yesterday.ini. Perhaps there is some system problem writing that file which cause the archive data processing loop to hang.

Re: blank ui
It should have been written again at 07:41, when it reset the sunshine hours. So it looks like there is some problem on your system writing the yesterday.ini file again. This apparently kills the thread and stops the rest of the archive data being processed - or perhaps the thread just hangs. It's possible there's a bug in the ini-file library, or in my code, but that doesn't explain why it's only you that apparently has this problem. Perhaps something on your system is preventing the file being written a second time - anti-virus scanning for newly modified files, perhaps.

Re: blank ui
I've added some more logging to the next build for the writing of the yesterday.ini file, which should confirm that's where the problem is (or not). But if that is confirmed, there is no other logging that can tell me why it happens on your system. There's a later version of the ini-file handling library than the one I am currently using, so I may look at using that in the next build.

Re: blank ui
It didn't actually work, you had a different issue which meant that it didn't download any archive data, so you now will have a gap in your data.

You could try rewinding and trying it again, using the backup files that it created when it started, here:

Re: blank ui
For what it's worth I've seen this blank control panel, with just the time updating. I went through to the settings and changed some things before stopping, rebooting, and restarting. Sorry, no diagnostics.
