I followed all WD and CWOP (DW6803), WeatherUnderground (KORASHLA12), and WeatherBug (21507) instructions for posting my station, including having the main FTP switch on. I can see that the WD ftp starts up and send data every 5 minutes, but nothing ever gets to CWOP, WU, or WB. Must be something blocking it, but I can’t locate any specific issue and other ftp processes work fine.
Any ideas on a flow to figure out what is happening?

So it appears that the ftp is setup to upload, but that nothing is posted. Not sure why? Attached below and in other replies are a couple of screen shots of my setup for CWOP/APRS and the ftp main.
I see you have checked that you are not using a CWOP ID, is this true. Your ID of DW6803 looks like a proper CWOP ID (mine is DW2671). Are you in fact registered as a Ham ID with CWOP? If not, then maybe try deleting the id in the Ham Validation box and uncheck the box stating you are not using a cwop id.
Also, on your server setup you have checked Use this server instead, but there is no server selected. Uncheck that box as well as another thing to try.
Did everything suggested in the last two replies (thanks by the way) and the ftplog still shows

Since nothing is being uploaded then WD must not be reading or processing a file. How can I check to see if WD has what it needs to post?
Thanks … that seemed to do the trick for CWOP-APRS and WeatherBug … however, WeatherUnderground is still not posting. Any tricks with it that might different from the other two.
CWOP-APRS and WB working fine, but WU still not posting. I have the station and password set up fine and the station exists on wunderground, nothing gets to them. No luck with anyone at WU to confirm that the station is setup to receive on their end. Any other ideas?
I’m beginning to think it’s overkill. With all the near real-time updates the templates are doing, RF is just excess baggage. Mine will probably come down (those cpu cycles can then drive my SETI calcs faster!).
jgillett did highlight one problem
if you were to turn off the rapid fire switch but then not exit the separate WUrapidfire.exe, then that program would keep on sending stale data to WU
I have fixed that now, so that its closed if the switch is turned off
