Title: CWOP Sites
Post by: ColdnFrosty on March 31, 2014, 11:29:44 PM

Anyone know if there has been a problem with their servers? I noticed my station data is missing for a good portion of the weekend.

My CWOP data posted just fine over the weekend, but I had the exact experience you describe the previous weekend. When I checked the WeatherCat Status tool, I discovered the CWOP uploads had stopped. Rebooting WeatherCat restarted everything and I never could figure out why the CWOP uploads stopped for most of that weekend. Don't know if the problem was on my end or theirs but since all other uploads were running (WU, PWS, Met, etc) I assumed CWOP had a problem. It's been fine since then.

Dear ColdnFrosty, Blick, and WeatherCat fans,

If you are having a problem with CWOP, there is a read-only email list that provides status reports of the various CWOP submission servers:

https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!forum/cwop-server-status-alerts (https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!forum/cwop-server-status-alerts)

It is a useful link to bookmark to determine if your CWOP connection is having problems because of your local setup or because of global "issuez."

Cheers, Edouard  [cheers1]

Thanks for the info Edouard! I checked the status reports for the days I had no uploads and discovered the problem was on their end.
