Hello,
I'm a brand new Cumulus user and think I have managed to stuff it all up already. I have seen the post on address already in use and couldn't quite figure it out.
Here's what I did:
1. I installed CumulusMX following the instructions, I'm a first time user, with a recent weather station. It seemed to work and I had some readings (after initialisation) but I couldn't see the history (I have had the instrument logging for a couple months now).
2. I looked at the FAQs and changed the today.ini file to an older date (against the warnings). That didn't seem to work and the terminal seemed to hang, but I still had data there. I forced close, rested today.ini to the current date, but of course the damage was done.
3. I deleted CumulusMX totally and reinstalled. That's when I got the terminal already in use error. I tried to close port 8998 with no success (see screen grab - could be the wrong way as I had to google it). I also tried to run CumulusMX with port 9999 with no success either.
Attached the screen-shot of the mess, and also a zip of MXdiags as the error message recommends.
I'm using Mac OS X 10.10.5 and the weather station is acres WS2083. I'm a pretty basic user.
thanks in advance for you help and patience.
Sophie

It looks like it’s the web socket port which the system says is already in use - 8002
Have you tried rebooting before starting MX?

Hi Steve,
Thanks for the quick reply. That worked fine thanks, I should have thought about it. I re-started, did the setup again and the program exited nicely. I started the program again and got a heap of errors, attached. I could see my instrument on the page, with the same readings as on the instrument. When I tried to exit the program hung up on me when trying to exit, in a similar way to last time. Shows on the screen print.
So it might be in the setup. I have an aercus WS2083. I chose "fine offset" and USB/serial, my units, data log to 30 minutes, my latitude and longitude (generally following the aercus instructions on their website). I checked a couple of the option boxes further down: average speed and dew point calculation I think.
Any further suggestions?
thanks
Sophie

This is a known problem in the usb library which MX uses, with later versions of Mono, as it happens there has just been a post about it, and it may get fixed shortly - see the thread “lack of updates”
