Is the zip file just the exe? Just unzip and copy over the old exe?
I downloaded the zip and extracted WeatherD.exe. Right click-properties tells me it sversion 10.20B.
By the way, at 9 PM the file uploaded again and was missing the icons.
Thanks
Frank
ignore the properities, on right mouse click , i have not udpated
yes, unzip to where you have wd installed (when wd is not running)
the other solution is to set a time to create and upload when nothing else is being created or uploaded then maybe
I copied the exe then restarted and waited for the 10 PM hourly update and VOILA EUREKA the icons are appearing in the gif image!!! Fantastic!
I continue to be amazed at what your program will do!
Thanks so much. What was the fix?
Happy Holidays - take some time off for family - I know I am
Frank
forced them to show just before grabbing the image (although there is no where in the program where i set them not visible)
and do a application.processmessages to let the program catch up (its a good idea)
and thats done the trick by the looks
so good news
Brian,
The image generated at midnight last night was again missing the icons. And at 12:19 AM WD crashed with an Invalid Page Fault in Module WeatherD.exe
Frank
All during the day today, WD generated sunmoonimage every hour. Until 5 PM the icons were missing. The 6 PM update had the icons.
Frank
i am clueless
sun moon rise set times only change a couple of times day, so hourly updating is a bit of a waste if you ask me
at the moment this is the only person i have with this issue, but i have seen reports a long time ago about it
Is that original W98, and how much memory do you have in the PC?
Brian,
I am updating it every hour so I can observe what happens.
Nikoshepherd it is WIn98 SE and 192 MB RAM. It is an old Pentium 2 --450 mHz machine I had lying around. I formatted the drive and installed Windows98SE then applied any patches from Microsoft.
If I go to Setup-ControlPanel-SunMoon and click update web file teh icons are always there. If I let WD update hourly icons are sometimes present and sometimes not present (more often NOT )
Thanks for your help.
I sometimes had similar problems when I had a slow upload with satellite -
Just something to try…set your FTP properties to passive mode to see if it makes a difference.
the problem occurs with the image on the PC, and not just the image on the web, so its not a ftp issue 8O
Just weird :?
I just checked and the sunmoonimage has not been uploaded for the last 3 hours. I did not see it in the FTP log. I verified teh settings in the custom internet create/upload and sunmoonimage was in fact set for hourly creation and hourly upload.
In the program error log I found the following:

Earlier I got the following errors that crashed WD
I am wondering is I have some flaky memory chip?
I agree - very wierd.
the cannot create errors are not a problem,…that happens when the ftp program is uploading the file and wd is recreating the file
the access violation errors are memory errors…
it could be an array going out of range
try running the beta debug verison,and it should trap where that error is (it produces a euraka log crash report)
Now WD is crashing with invalid page fault every 30-60 miniutes
I think a remove/reinstall is in order
How do I remove COMPLETELY?
How do I preserve the existing data?
Fran,k
try:
install to a new directory
then create a file there called 2wd.txt (make sure its not 2wd.txt.txt)
then start wd there (it should start up like brand new)
and set up the basics, to see how it goes
then latest, copy across the datafiles and logfiles from the old installation (when wd is not running)
and then see how it goes
If you want to test memory download memtest86 http://www.memtest86.com/ it creates a self booting diskette and does a very thorough test.
I tried running the beta debug version. It is crashing at least twice a day with Error 103.
Is there an error log generated by the beta debug version I can send you?
Thanks
Frank
the beta version should have a euraka log come up, and you click on more details
an i/o errors is a file error
