Meteotemplate Forum

I have been doing some maintenance on the Windows 10 computer connected to my weather station, which is running Weather-Display.

On a different computer I happened to bring up my MT site, and noted the "station status" block said my station was off line, yet the "current" block was updating every 10 seconds.

I checked the other templates I also have running, specifically Leuven-Template and Saratoga Template, and all were displaying current info. Bottom line, everything was being uploaded to my site, except the MT SQL database was not being updated.

I changed nothing, and the station status block showed the station was back online, and more showed there was a 20 minute gap. I have noted other 20 - 25 minute gaps in the past, but after the fact so I had no idea what was going on.

That happens to both of my sites about once a week or once every other week. It is usually down for about 20-25 minutes and usually happens early in the mornings around 1 am. I tracked it down to my host doing maintenance on their SQL databases. It happens to both sites at the same time. They are both hosted the same place.

The timing on mine is all over the place, middle of the night, mid afternoon, evening.

I agree, it looks like an SQL issue, as I did confirm everything else was updating, including the current conditions block in MT, and clientraw.txt.
