Fine Offset guages not working after update

Hi all, after I updated to v3.27.0 my system is no longer showing any gauge activity in "dashboard" or "gauges" tabs although the "now" tab is obviously getting data correctly from the weather station. Anybody got any ideas how to fix this please?
I do start the Cumulus MX in administrator mode.
Thanks, Richard.

Is your Internet Settings=>Web/Upload Site=>Enable Upload connections by accident unticked (assuming you upload over the internet)?
If so tick it and save. You might be lucky I saw this happening to my install yesterday.

Ah wait... stupid of me: the interface does not need the upload. We're not talking website here. Sorry for that.

Any errors in your Utils | Latest Errors screen?

Hi Mark. No errors showing up. But I have just found out that using localhost:8998/ is the IP address that has no activity on the dials, but using the 192.168.56.1:8998/ or 192.168.2.108;8998/ ones works perfectly.
System is latest win11.
An interesting anomaly.
Regards, Richard.

Localhost is probably resolving to the IPv6 address [::1], that is not normally a problem as MX binds to IPv6 as well, I often use that address on my own dev machine.

OK; thanks for that. I'm happy with using an IP address for now, but I would eventually like to revert to the localhost route so that the IP address doesn't change when things are updated. But I don't know how to achieve this.
