weather station has stopped uploading data to weather underground
CCWxWatcher:
My weather station has stopped uploading data to weather underground on October 16, 2018 @ 4:58 EDST. WeatherCat is not attempting to send any reports to WU although it indicates "current status = Running. This setup has been uploading to WU for many years without an difficulty. I am using a DavisPro weather station, iMac, and weather cat software, all with latest updates. It is uploading data to CWOP without interruption.
A few minutes ago I switched to WeatherSnoop, latest updated software and it is uploading data to both WU and CWOP. I prefer using WeatherCat software. Any suggestions as to what may be wrong? Thanks
JosBaz:
Strange one... should work (as you say). Have you tried the typical steps to try and breathe some life into it again?
- stop and restart the process
- reboot and restart WC
- change the settings (e.g. set the update rate to 5 mins) and deselect the 'Log Sent Data' option
FWIW: this is what my settings look like.

There are changes for "RapidFire" updates which could be the cause of the problem.
Could you first test with "RapidFire" not selected?
Just using the "slow'" 1 or 2 minutes updates.

You have been given some good suggestions to start with. One other thing to check is to make sure that you can log into your Weather Underground account without difficulty. There has been some problems with Weather Underground not accepting passwords that were okay in the past. You might try changing your Weather Underground password and see if this resolves the problem.
Cheers, Edouard [cheers1]

Some good suggestions above, in addition, try turning off historical uploads and waiting a few minutes to see if it resumes real time uploads. If no good, the problem may be preferences file related - try replacing it. To do this, first make sure WeatherCat isn't running and then access your preferences folder by using the Finder's Go->Go To Folder... menu command and enter:
~/Library/Preferences/
Scroll down the list of preferences files until you find the one named:
com.trixology.weathercat.plist
Delete (or rename) this file then reboot the machine and launch WeatherCat. The reboot after removing the old preferences file is very important - without this, the old settings will be cached in RAM and reused when WeatherCat relaunches.
Also note that many of your settings will be reset to defaults/cleared so make a note of any settings you?ll need to re-enter/change when the settings have been reset (such as your latitude/longitude).
