Reformatting not working after April 1st 2016 anymore

[MeteoTwischkamp]

Hi,

It looks like the reformatting tool is not working anymore for my database. I used it a while ago to have the intervals of my large database (starting in 2006) on the same level (5 minutes) and that worked back then.

Until January 6th 2018 i used the import file option from Weather Display so that my logfiles are again in 1 Minute intervals.
Since i recently decided to switch to a raspberry which runs 24/7 (unlike my old laptop which was off during the night and during longer absence) data is now automatically updated by the api every 5-10 minutes so no need to reformat that.

What i want to do is to reformat the data between April 1st 2016 and January 6th 2018 to have five minute intervals. I followed the instructions in the wiki and got the " DATABASE REFORMATING...
DONE!" screen instantly. Checking the database after that, indicated that nothing has been done.

I guess this has to do that i had used the reformatting script already once- so is it possible to reformat the data a second time?

Best regards

Georg

Hi,
no, not currently and it is something I want to fix in v18.
However you should be able to do it yourself. If you use phpMyAdmin, you need to delete the table "new" and "alldata_bkp". Then the reformat will work again.
