When Cumulus starts, it will display the URL of the user interface. It runs on port 8998 by default; if this is not suitable for some reason you can over-ride it using the '-port' parameter on the command line, e.g. to use port 9999 instead:
<pre>sudo mono CumulusMX.exe -port 9999</pre>
=== Parameter for adding debugging ===▼
MX has a default level of logging that stores in the [[MXdiags_folder]] folder a log file that shows some of the interaction with the weather station and some of the output actions done as MX runs. A new log is started each time MX is restarted.▼
If there is a problem, then there is a great benefit in actually increasing the level of detail in these logs; and that is done either within the settings (on recent MX releases this is on '''Program Settings''' page of admin interface - please see [[MXdiags_folder]] page for details) or by adding a parameter: ▼
:<code>sudo mono CumulusMX.exe -debug</code>▼
=== Parameter for changing Locale ===
WantedBy=multi-user.target</pre>
== Setting up as a service in release 3.8.0 ==
Skip this sub-section for latest release.
# Type <code> mono-service -l:/var/run/cmx.pid CumulusMX.exe -service</code>
# (to verify) note this does not allow you to add -port, -debug, -locale parameters
▲=== Parameter for adding debugging ===
▲MX has a default level of logging that stores in the [[MXdiags_folder]] folder a log file that shows some of the interaction with the weather station and some of the output actions done as MX runs. A new log is started each time MX is restarted.
▲If there is a problem, then there is a great benefit in actually increasing the level of detail in these logs; and that is done either within the settings (on recent MX releases this is on '''Program Settings''' page of admin interface - please see [[MXdiags_folder]] page for details) or by adding a parameter:
▲:<code>sudo mono CumulusMX.exe -debug</code>
=== Parameters only applicable to Version 3.0.0 Beta builds of MX ===
Beta builds in MX version 3.0.0 had an optional parameter <code>sudo mono EXISTING PATH/CumulusMX/CumulusMX.exe -wsport nnnn</code> that determined which port (represented by a 4 digit number ''nnnn'') was used for '''Web Sockets'''.
That parameter [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=17887&p=138815&hilit=sockets#p138815 is now deprecated as Web Sockets in all builds since 3045]
▲That parameter is now deprecated as Web Sockets in all builds since 3045 uses the same port as the rest of the [[MX_Administrative_Interface#The_API_interface|Admin Interface]], see Port parameter below.
==== Debugging of data flow between station and MX====
Note use of this parameter is now deprecated.
Although this is not mentioned in any release announcements, it appears that on all recent MX releases this effect is incorporated into the '''-debug''' parameter described earlier. Perhaps someone could confirm whether this is true.
