Thanks, when you say settings… assuming you mean WDisplay.ini wdisplayftp.ini - any others? oh and a log file of course
In program event log, when I see the access violations, there is no time stamp. However, in some they seem to be before the resetting warmest night setting - so that would be before 6am.
From recollection many of them are around the 9pm time frame if that helps.
Will send settings and screen shots
I agree finding the violator will be tough so thanks so much in advance
Oh btw I’m on build 285. I saw there was a 288 avail - do you think that will help?
I see that you have not set a time zone (hours) in the sun moon rise/set
(note that west of GMT is postive for this setup)
try setting that
and yes use the latest version as I am improving things all the time
and I see you have that set to be created and uploaded every 5 minutes
that is over kill
the live data comes from the clientraw.txt file
that testtag file takes alot of processing
the live data comes from the clientraw file
the rest of the info only changes less often , so you really only need to have that file updated and uploaded say every hour
try that too (i.e the special file conversion)
similar for extra moon and moon icon
you have that set to be created and uploaded every 5 minutes
and yet the moon info is only going to change daily
so change that to be updated/uploaded daily only
if you go to control panel
internet file creation and uploads
then click on set
for the file #29, 2nd tab
you will see its set to be created every 5 minutes
click on every hour
instead
same for file #31 and 32 (set a one time only i.e daily)
do the same for the upload times
I did put that value back to hourly when i got home yesterday.
When I got up this am I noticed something odd. It appeared to have flat lined. But then around 6am it recovered - as evident in the WD main screen graph.
When I got up at 7am the record counter was working/light blinking. Program event log had an access violation
Current memory used is approx 10gb with total of 16
Anyways, giving you as much info to help you out.
Not sure if this means anything, but wayyy back when for another problem (which I just recollected in the VP import screen) you had me set the data read delay to 800 - does that mean anything?
That value in the VP import that way back when you had me changed to 800 - is that OK (read delay)
Also is it OK to put that #29 setting back to 5 mins or do you still want it at an hour?
Thanks
Brian, since Oct 21 I put that value in #29 back to an hour. So far no flat lines. I also held off not going up to B288 (you said not to change too many things at once).
Would it be OK to put value #29 back to 5 minutes - see if that brings the issue back OR i could wait another week to be safe. The flat lines were happening typically once a week minimum I think
If the issue came back, I would think that might help you pinpoint the issue.
Also on that odd issue I had a year or so ago in the data logger screen you had me change the “data read delay” to 800. Do you think that has anything to do with this?
My WD has been running for just over a week now with that value #29 (in internet file creation uploads) set to 1 hour.
So far no flat lines (I was getting at least one if not more a week prior)
So that could possibly be the cause. If so i hope that helps isolate. I would like to put the value to at least 5 mins (1 min too frequent) as 1 hour impacts with web page times.
I held off applying Build 288 as you said (which I agree) not to do too many things at once. I see you have a new and exciting build 290 which I would like to try.
Finally, back a year or so ago you had me change some data read retry in the data logger screen to 800. Could this be causing any issues? Should it stay at 800 or some other value?
Perhaps its because i’m remoted in and hard to see my screen, but looks like the data packet count pauses, then normal a bit, then pauses etc - I will look when I’m home.
So what about that read delay from the logger screen?
I started to write a reply here yesterday but got side tracked and ultimately forgot ):
I was going to say that while I was getting a flat line 1-2 a week, since I changed that value to 1 hour I hadn’t received any in approx 3+ weeks.
UNTIL…
When I woke up this am, I noticed a flat line starting approx 930pm
I noticed the counter wasn’t incrementing. Memory use was approx 10GB (total 16)
I checked program event log and saw some access violations (attached).
I am on the latest build 290
If you need anything else, let me know. Defiantly progress
