Cant see wd on my website

Hi all. I have a new website specially for weather and I have set up WD ftp to transfer my data. It seems to upload fine but I cannot see anything at all on my new website and then when I go in to ‘web files/web page setup’, I click on ‘View a webpage’ and there it is.

What am I doing wrong???
I’m afraid I am not very technically minded so I appreciate any help …Thanks

Hi
what is the URL to your web site?
and what shows in the ftplogfull.txt file?

from my Wd ftplogfull.txt: (there are about 10 of these messages so I posted the last one?)

You might want to edit your last post and remove your password from each of the two long links.

oops… thanks!!

Hi
which version/build of WD are you using?
the best way to get files to your web site is to use the customise internet and file creation setup
I have a youtube video outlining how to use that

hi. i’m using Ver.10.37s41. I am using the pages you suggest but nothing appears on my website… i’ll look at you’re videos and let you know.
thanks.

is the main internet switch on in the connections setup?
also make sure you have ticked their to use WD’s ftpupd.exe program

the main switch is on. i cant see the ftpupd.exe. i have ‘Use Weather Display’s own FTP’ ticked.

does the ftpupd.exe program exist where WD is installed?
if you could .zip and email me your settings files then I can check on them

yes it does and I can see it uploading on my desktop.

what shows in the ftplogfull.txt file?

no errors

what I mean is
does it show that the files on your web page are uploading?
what is the URL to your web site?
is the remote directory set correct in WD?

Hi, if files are being uploaded you should see details of FTP logging into the server and transferring files in ftplogfull.txt

e.g.
Logging onto FTP server…<ftp.yourservername>
Connecting to FTP server.
OK
Connected.

etc etc etc

your log just shows data being transferred to Wunderground (more than 2 years ago so it may not have been updated since)

Best thing is to zip and email settings files to Brian so he can check. (In WD, action → backup windows registry entries, then look for wdisplay.ini and wdisplayftp.reg in c:\wdisplay\databackup - those are the files to send)

Sorry about that. I have the remote directory set correctly, as far as I can see. my website url is http://vincentlong.info/

try putting a trailing / on the end of the remote directory

are you using the customise intenet and file creation setup?
if you are (recommended) then make sure you have set times to create and set times to upload, the files needed on your web site and you have the switch on in the create and in the upload times
and the override switch is on

Remote into your server from a terminal and issue a pwd command and see what it reports as your root directory. If it shows you’re root is /home3/uinsinnl then drop that part from your WD setup and just ftp to /weatherdisplay.
