Station showing offline status

Post by spanishhighs » Sun Jun 24, 2018 4:44 pm

Hi

After months of working fine all of a sudden my station is showing OFFLINE (as of 16:14 Madrid time today) and yet the clientraw.txt files that it takes data from is still being updated every minute by the server.

I have rebooted the station, server and internet numerous times. Suspect it might be something to do with cron jobs but not sure how to fix.

Data updated via https://www.spanishhighs.co.uk/weatherl ... entraw.txt
Station is at https://www.spanishhighs.co.uk/meteotem ... esktop.php

Any help appreciated. Thanks
Richard

UPDATE
It is a Cron Problem
https://cron-job.org/ stopped updating at 16:15
Not sure why but https://www.spanishhighs.co.uk/meteotem ... ?password=???? Not updating automatically. Works if I feed that URL into a browser though.

SOLVED!
Just couldn't get the cron job to work in https://cron-job.org/
Then I deleted the existing Cron job and set up another afresh. Volia!Worked fine
Hope this helps others in similar position.
