=Explanation=
 
*This sub-category provides links to pages that give explanations for all of the Log files within Cumulus 1.
*Descriptions, and tips, can also be found in the Help file within the Cumulus 1 software.
 
= Correcting Log files =
 
[[Calculate Missing Values]], [[Amending dayfile]], and [[Correcting Extremes]], are the pages to look at. Be aware that from release 3.7.0 of MX, internal code changes have made MX less tolerant of log files that are not perfectly formatted; therefore it is harder to [[Migrating from Cumulus 1 to MX|move log files between the Cumulus flavours]].
 
= TYPES =
# '''.txt''' files - these are the logs that Cumulus updates at defined intervals to hold details of what has happened, but it can also read these files when requested, click on links below for details
# '''.xml''' file - this holds the Cumulus 1 [[Weather_Diary]]. Although it uses standard XML, the component that Cumulus 1 uses also writes a special value that other XML editors will not understand.
# diagnostics '''.log''' files, see both [[Debug.log|this page]] and [[Diags_folder|this page]] for Cumulus 1 diagnostics, and see [[MXDiags folder|this page for Cumulus MX diagnostics]]▼
#'''.db''' file - there are two of these for Cumulus MX, click on links below for details
▲# diagnostics '''.log''' files, see both [[Debug.log|this page]] and [[Diags_folder|this page]] for Cumulus 1 diagnostics, and see [[MXDiags folder|this page for Cumulus MX diagnostics]]
 
*'''[[Speciallog.txt]]''' is only Cumulus 1. ▼
Cumulus MX also has some JSON files with data for its web pages. See MX announcements for more details, as this functionality varies depending on your MX release.
 
= Not all files are in original Cumulus and MX =
 
Most log files apply to both Cumulus 1 and Cumulus MX, but a few log files are only used by one flavour. There is full information at [[Compare C1 and MX|compare original Cumulus and MX]] page, but here are some examples.
▲*'''[[Speciallog.txt]]''' is only Cumulus 1.
*'''[[cumulusmx.db]]''' is only MX.
*'''[[Weather Diary]]''' is stored in different formats for Cumulus 1 and MX.
*Also, various ''.ini'' log files have different formats (for dates, times, decimals) in Cumulus 1 (where they take formats from Control Panel settings) and MX (where they ignore locale settings, and have a fixed format set in MX).
