The debug.log file is extremely useful in troubleshooting problems with Cumulus and/or connectivity to your weather station.
By default this is not enabled, but can be turned on and off as required. Click on the Settings / Program settings menu within Cumulus and tick the 'Debug Logging' menu option.
The file contains a wealth of data including the raw data received from your weather station, connectivity attempts, file uploads, etc.
Note: the file can grow very large very quickly so turn the Debug Log option off it not required. If the file grows too large it can cause Cumulus to crash.
