Station Offline

[Kristi]

My station stopped updating today around 14.00.

I tried to understand why but I cannot really track the problem. The realtime.txt file from Cumulus is updated regularly, the database update is set up correctly and tests are successful, cron-job has been successful, but manually accessing the update.php page will not update the website either.

Any ideas?

What is really weird is that if I go under the tab Current Conditions - Gauges, I will get to see the most recent data:



But not under Current Conditions - Current Data

Maybe useful information is that I have in the past couple of days switched from WU to Cumulus, but it seemed to be working fine until that point, where no specific change that I can think of happened.

Apparently the realtime.txt file was getting cached, and even though it was being updated, it always showed the old data. Checking delete before FTP update in Cumulus fixed it, hope this is all that was going on. Will leave this here in case anyone ever has the same issues.

My database is still not updating though. I think it has to do with the fact that I changed from my server's cronjob to cron-job.org. Csn someone confirm my cronjob is set correctly?

Hi,
try running the URL in a browser. If that triggers the update correctly, the problem is in the CRON job
