My Met Office link stopped working at 15:55 on the 04 Jan 2021. Sadly I hadn't notices and now cannot get it to restart receiving data from my station.
I can find my station number from my settings page on the Met Office site but cannot confirm my "pin" as asked for in my Cumulus settings.
How can I find out if I have inserted the correct 'pin' in my Cumulus settings and how can I confirm whether or not it is Cumulus not sending successfully or the Met Office WOW site not responding.

Re: Met office WOW
Hi,
Site ID: [37595665]
Pin: [my password when setting up WOW]
You can see these in your Cumulus.ini file in the [WOW] section.
However signing-in to WOW website has been somewhat a challenge... but I have been able to get signed in.
I presume this is your site ID 6396059:
and WOW site: https://wow.metoffice.gov.uk/observatio ... id=6396059
Enjoy,
Paul

The MXDiags should have an entry for the upload attempts:and how can I confirm whether or not it is Cumulus not sending successfully or the Met Office WOW site not responding.

Re: Met office WOW
Yes that is my site site. I have checked MXDiags and am getting "WOW Response: ERROR - Response code= Forbidden" so it looks like an issue with my PIN.
I can't find a way to change that on my Site Page.

Re: Met office WOW
Geoff I just checked my WOW site and to see and presumably change the AWS 6 digit PIN log in to WOW and edit your site then it should show the PIN and presumably you can change it there. At least I saw it on mine but did not try to change it!
