Cumulus MX Known Issues


Crystal Clear info.png This section was last updated for the MX beta by Steve Loft; that is no longer latest!

Appeal to contributors: Please work through all MX release announcements and work out all the many updates needed for this section, this page might benefit from a redesign, for more recent releases!


We need confirmation that those flagged as fixed, actually are fixed.

  • There are issues with 'decimal commas' - particularly in the admin interface, but also in the 'engine'
  • At some browser widths, the (admin interface?) menu wraps and obscures some of the content
  • Not all 'out of range' values in Davis logger data are catered for - should be fixed in 3010
  • Realtime ftp may not recover from network/server issues
  • Dominant wind direction figures not reloaded from today.ini (calc may also be wrong) - should be fixed in 3015
  • TCP/IP data stops when using Virtual VP (and possibly other Davis TCP/IP connections?) - hopefully fixed in 3018
  • FTP uploads can go to wrong directory if there are connection issues - should be fixed in 3021
  • 'Sharing violation' on a .ini file (e.g. month.ini) when new high wind run set - should be fixed in 3021
  • Davis UV graph is in integers if you use decimal commas - should be fixed in 3022
  • Doesn't check for out of range Lux figures (Fine Offset) - should be fixed in 3022
  • Davis data stops being read
  • Problem with setting/unsetting 'send solar' in Wunderground and PWS Weather settings - should be fixed in 3023
  • Should check that a WU update isn't already in progress before starting a new one - should be fixed in 3023

  • Problem with 'wake console' code on Davis TCP/IP connections - should be fixed in 3024
  • <#tomorrowdaylength> calculation is wrong - should be fixed in 3025
  • High min temp date is wrong - should be fixed in 3025
  • Monthly alltime record broken on 1st of month before 0900/1000 gets assigned to wrong month, if using 0900/1000 rollover - should be fixed in 3025
  • Crashes at startup if sun is always up (or down). There are other related issues with things like daylight length at higher latitudes - should be fixed in 3026
  • Davis wind chill is always degrees C if logger data is being used - should be fixed in 3026
  • Communication issues with Davis IP loggers - should be improved in 3026
  • Rounding issues with Beaufort calculations - should be fixed in 3026
  • Use of 'periodic disconnect' for Davis IP connections causes crash - should be fixed in 3027
  • Twitter stops working on some systems - should be fixed in 3027
  • Data reading thread with Davis serial/USB stations can crash if invalid data received (bug introduced in 3026) - should be fixed in 3028
  • 'Recent data' missing if duplicate timestamps in log files - should be fixed in 3028
  • Davis 'periodic disconnect' still has problems, on Windows only - should be fixed in 3029
  • Spurious small 'rain last hour' etc when multiplier used - should be fixed in 3029
  • Exceptions can occur when enabling or disabling FTP logging dynamically - should be fixed in 3029
  • WMR928TempChannel setting doesn't also do humidity - should be fixed in 3029
  • A fix to the 'dp' code for latitude and longitude in 3029 has stopped it working - should be fixed in 3030
  • Graph data loaded from logs at start up is always for last 24 hours rather than configured period - should be fixed in 3031
  • Rain in last 24 hours is actually for configured graph period - should be fixed in 3031
  • A zero in location seconds field can sometimes cause problems - should be fixed in 3031
  • Davis reception stats are still read every couple of minutes rather than every 15 minutes - should be fixed in 3031
  • Checksum validation for Instromet is wrong, so all data is rejected - should be fixed in 3032
  • Dominant wind direction is wrong when Davis logger data is used (i.e. when catching up) - should be fixed in 3032
  • Easyweather.dat reading interval is an integer, should be a float as in Cumulus 1 - should be fixed in 3033
  • All-time and monthly all-time gust don't always get updated on Davis stations if figure from LOOP2 is used - should be fixed in 3033
  • Crash while parsing data from Instromet station - should be fixed in 3033
  • External program shouldn't run until all pages processed - should be fixed in 3033

  • Problems with parsing Instromet responses due to Unix newlines - should be fixed in 3036
  • Davis Leaf Wetness values are not read correctly - should be fixed in 3037
  • Processing of Davis archive data can stop after day rollover - should be fixed in 3037
  • Web files without UTF-8 selected should use ISO-8859-1 not ASCII (causes 'odd' characters to appear) - should be fixed in 3037
  • End of month/year copies of month.ini and year.ini are incorrectly named if 0900 start of day in use - should be fixed in 3037
  • Dayfile.txt viewer can display an error message if dayfile.txt from Cumulus 1 is used - should be fixed in 3037
