Unable to get wxlocal, etc to upload

Brian,
Since 4 Oct I have been unable to get WD to convert wxlocal.html to wx.shtml. The ftp error log reports that wx.shtml cannot be found, but there is no mention of any error processing the wxlocal file. Same is true of wxlocal2 thru wxlocal13. I do have the .shtml suffix specified both in the custom web page setup and in the customized upload schedule setup.
I have tried using 1 minute updates, as well as all the others. I have tried using only the normal scheduled uploads as well as the custom uploads. Neither seems to work anymore - they were working prior to 4 Oct.

Fred
p.s. currentl using WD 9.94d

i will check it out…
but off to a meeting now on a proposed wind farm in the area :slight_smile:

My files also no longer upload :frowning:
All I get are zero byte files…

C:\WDisplay\webfiles\extrarealtimegraph.gif
C:\WDisplay\webfiles\forecasticon.gif
C:\WDisplay\webfiles\localweather.gif
C:\WDisplay\webfiles\weatherbanner.gif

I notice in the path you get two backslashes at one point \ rather than 1.

Is this the problem?

Many Thanks

Automan.

automan, try re setting the webfiles location, under setup,webfiles and web page setup

fred: i have fixed a bug with the test button on the custom setup page
but the new thing now(and it states it next to the extension to use) is that the source file needs that extension too
i.e you need a file called wxlocal.shtml to create the wx.shtml from
(instead of say wxlocal.html creates wx.html)
that is a change i made…
and that should fix that

i have duplicated the disappearing icon, so i will fix

You are absolurely right! The screen does say that the wxlocal… files must have the same tag as the converted file. But I read it and the meaning didn’t sink in. Must be getting old! All fixed now and my uploads are aperaing again. Thanks for the assist.

Fred

list of files uploaded*

Also sometimes when it did work it would place the files in the route of my web site rather in the subfolder called “weather”

Many thanks

Automan.

hi automan
also post here the ftplogfull.txt file after a update
(as long as you have ftplogging ticked under connections)
i think it cant find a file

fred, i have fixed it, uploading a new 9.94e now
i will let you know when ready

C:\WDisplay\webfiles\index.wml

thats the clue
i bet it cant find that file

automan
are you usign the custom web page option?
export and email me your settings from the registry (wdisplayftp.ini)

Brian,
New 9.94e did the trick.
Thanks from my wife for helping to get the web page uploading again. Thanks from me for fixing the disapearing icon.

Fred

good news :slight_smile:

My fault :frowning:
Seems on of the rules on my firewall were preventing ftp from working via your software (ftp still worked however via my WIN FTF Pro software) - Rules were updated last weekend to enable VPN connection.

Anyway I have restored my rules to last week and it worked first time.

I will try and compare the rules to see if I can see which one was stopping it from uploading correctly (it would just make zero byte files).
