Dear Angiotom and WeatherCat troubleshooters,

I have today upgraded to Mac Sonama. I am using the latest version of WeatherCat. Although in the toolbar the data from my wireless Vantage Pro 2 is correct, my custom graph is not updating . Any help please?

Here are a few things to try.  Since one other WeatherCat user solved their Sonoma problem by replacing their preference file with a backup that certainly would be a good first thing to try.  The instructions on how to do this are here:

https://wiki.trixology.com/index.php?title=How_to_create_and_use_a_backup_of_your_WeatherCat_preferences_file

Hopefully, you either have a dedicated backup or can retrieve this file from system backup.

You might try simply closing the custom graph and reopening it to see if that gets it working again.  You could try creating a new custom graph to see if the problem is with all graphs or just that one.

Finally, it would be a good idea to take a look at the WeatherCat log to see if there are any messages there which might explain your problem.

Let us know what you uncover.

It would still be nice to know if SFTP/PPH is ever coming to WeatherCat  :D :D

Agreed.

Just a small update to this one:

I am running WeatherCat on my Mac mini.  ;D Then I installed an FTP Server on my mini (this one: FTPServer). Next step was creating a new folder that WeatherCat can use as "SavePathFolder". Now WeatherCat processes the files within the "CustomWebFolder" to the (new) "SavePathFolder" and in the preferences I told WC to upload to the FTP Server folder I ceated with the app linked above. Now how to bring all the files up to my webhost using FTPS or SFTP? Three other apps helped me doing this: Automator, Transmit and Lingon. With Automator I created two programms that are executing "look for files within the finder" then "open an FTPS connection with Transmit", ftp the files and close the connection. The last step is using Lingon to create two LaunchDaemon scripts (one that is executed every 15 mins for the app that uploads all the files and webcam pictures that are found in the FTP Server folder, the other one executes every 1 min for the app that uploads the txt file used by SteelSeriesGauges. The nice thing is that all is running on one PC - no Raspi or something else needed.

Any Questions? :o

Yes, a bit complicated but doing what I want so far that I am back in business with WeaterCat and my website.  ;)

WeatherCat Feature Requests / Another sync tool? (Re: SFTP and/or PHP Uploads)

Dear Reinhard and WeatherCat "fixer-upers" 

OK, it's a fix. That fix offers me the idea of istalling an FTP-Server on my Mac mini to get all of the uploads I want to get uploaded. After collecting all data within a folder on this "Server" the one question remains: How to tell my Mac to upload the files every xxx minutes.

But to use a fix is a little bit ... strange.  ???

There might be a simpler way to switch to SFTP.  There are FTP clients that offer sync services.  One is ForkLift:

https://binarynights.com/

If you look at the sync section of the manual, it claims it can monitor a folder on your Mac and automatically upload any changed files to an SFTP server.  So you could have WeatherCat create your files as usual but turn off the FTP upload that your hosting provider doesn't support anymore.  You could then simply have your FTP client like Forklift monitor the folder where WeatherCat deposits its files on your Mac and automatically upload them to your website directories as before.

It is still a bit clumsy and involves buying some new software, but it should work and is a lot less misery than setting up your own FTP server.
