Thanks Gary...no worries. I just wanted to update you with my findings. I
certainly don't expect real time responses!
Steve
ps..I removed the old gauge-data.txt files from the server, and they are
not being generated (or the server isn't allowing them to upload).

Re: [weewx-user] Re: FTP failure

[gjr80]

Steve,

Apologies, have been tied up the last two days. I don't think there is any 
need to re-installl anything, everything is there it's just a case of 
working out why the php script is not accepting and saving gauge-data.txt and 
perhaps tweaking a SteelSeries Gauges setting or two. I also glimpsed a 
javascript error the other night. I have a few things I want to try today, 
let me work through them and I will get back to you.

 Gary: I am still trying to get things working.

Here is where I am at currently;
Software versions:
Weewx:3.8.2
SteelSeries Gauges:   2.7.3
Rtgd:   0.3.7

The gauge-data.text file is not updating with loops. It is there, but when 
I refresh it does not change   ( 
https://photokinetics.org/Weather/gauge-data.txt )

When I set Debug =1, I get the following error every loop (approx 2.5 
seconds)
Sep 21 11:00:43 raspberrypi weewx[920]: rtgdthread: Failed to post data: 
Unexpected response

This did not change anything, however one thing I see is that

Re: [weewx-user] Re: FTP failure

[gjr80]

Steve,

That has partially fixed the problem; I can now see gauge-data.txt is being 
uploaded to your web server, though it is appearing in a different 
directory to that expected by the SteelSeries Gauges javascript. I 
recommend leaving the SteelsSeries gauges as is and altering 
post_gauge-data.php to save gauge-data.txt to the correct directory. If you 
can edit the post_gauge-data.php file on your web server and locate the 
following line (circa line 28):

$json_file = "./gauge-data.txt";

then change it to read:

$json_file = "./ss/gauge-data.txt";

Save the file. Note depending on your host you may not be able to edit 
files directly on the web server, you may need to edit a local copy and 
then manually upload it.

No need to restart anything, the gauges should start to work again in a few 
seconds.

Gary

Gary: my host told me how to access my log files, and in the instructions 
was this:

" I checked on the error logs, and today's log is empty, which is good in
the way that it would indicate the hosting environment is working
correctly. Please check on the logs and if you need further support let
us know, we'll be happy to help."

The error.log for today is empty.

The .php file WAS missing from /Weather, but my adding it does not appear 
to have changed anything.

Gary..I will check for the .php file later today...thanks
Vince..I intend on changing to Rsync once I get the gauges working again.
I'm sure I will have some problems when I do it,  and don't want to try and
fix 2 problems at the same time.

You really should consider switching to rsync as your uploader.   It will 
go through all those files in a second or two total if you have any kind of 
reasonable internet bandwidth.   All you need to do is some relatively 
simple ssh setup so you can do a password-less ssh to your internet site.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: FTP failure

[gjr80]

Thanks Steve, you are (were) uploading gauge-data.txt via HTTP POST to your 
host. This involves the use of a fairly basic PHP script on your web server 
that receives and saves gauge-data.txt and does some basic acknowledgment 
for each upload. First thing to check is that the PHP script still exists 
on your web server and is in the correct location. According to your 
[RealtimeGaugeData] stanza the script, post_gauge-data.php, should be 
located in the Weather directory off the web root of your web server. Can 
you check that the file exists? If it is not there, or located elsewhere, 
you will need to manually upload it to the Weather directory. If you need 
to download post_gauge-data.php you will find it here 

.

If post_gauge-data.php is there then it is likely encountering some sort of 
error. In this case you to look at the error log for your web server - if 
the PHP script is encountering some problems they should be logged by your 
web server. Where to find and how to access your web server error log will 
vary depending on your web host, sorry I can't be much help there. Perhaps 
your son or your web host can help if you can't find it. It's possible that 
you may not be able to access the error log, some hosts are like that. If 
you can access the error log just grab a small extract and post back here, 
the uploads are attempted every 2 odd seconds so any errors will be 
occurring very frequently. If you can't access the log let us know and we 
can try to work something else out.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: FTP failure

[gjr80]

Steve,

>From what I can see of your SteelSeries Gauges it looks as if the WeeWX 
data file, gauge-data.txt, is not being uploaded to your site. I had a poke 
around on your site and could not find gauge-data.txt in any of the obvious 
locations. As Vince said this is unlikely to have anything to do with your 
host account password. To troubleshoot further we need to know how 
gauge-data.txt is being transferred to the DreamWorks server, from previous 
threads I gather you are still using my realtime gauge-data extension 
 to generate 
gauge-data.txt.  If that is the case could you post the [RealtimeGaugeData] 
stanza from weewx.conf, check before posting for any sensitive info in that 
stanza, I do not expect there are any account names or passwords but there 
may be API keys. If so just blank them out before posting.

You might want to also have a look in the WeeWX log, if upload/transfer of 
gauge-data.txt is failing there should be an indication in the log. Try 
setting debug = 1 then restart WeeWX and check the log for errors.

Also, let's check that the realtime gauge-data extension is indeed being 
loaded. Can you post the startup log extract (with debug = 1) from when 
WeeWX starts through until a couple of report cycles have completed.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: FTP failure

[vince]

Switching to rsync from ftp will give you much more reliable and quicker 
uploads, but that has nothing to do with your ISP blocking your source 
address.  I think it is very unlikely that there is anything related to 
your ISP-side username/password required to have your gauges work.

Don't overthink things and start twisting knobs and dials blindly.  All 
you're doing is uploading pre-generated files from your weewx site to your 
Internet site.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: FTP failure

[Warren Gill]

You will probably find (as I have) that rsync works *much* better than FTP.
The protocol is cleaner and more secure. The biggest benefit is that rsync
sends only the bits that changed, instead of ALL the bits. That means the
connection doesn't have to stay active as long, and you transfer a fraction
of the data. Plus you can set compression to even further reduce the
bandwidth requirements.

Gary..I my son granted me aux user permission on DreamHost. I was then able 
to communicate directly with support. They found my IP had been blocked, 
possibly for too much activity even though I have never changed anything on 
my end (perhaps someone hacked the account?). They unblocked it and a few 
hours later the main Weewx program is working,  however my Steel gauges are 
not filling in properly (photokinetics.org/Weather). Its been so long since 
I changed anything, I don't remember if there is a setting in steel gauges 
that requires my password to DreamWorks. I did change it, and changed the 
FTP file for weewx. I am thinking of switching from FTP to Rsync for 
security reasons, but I dont know how that will effect other parts of the

Not good. Not being able to SSH into the server is suggestive of something 
to do with your network/router or your host not WeeWX. Before you said you 
could ftp to your host outside of WeeWX, is that still the case?

try dropping the http://, if anything it should be ftp://, but for WeeWX it

I had the same thing occur, the issue was with my provider/host. Touch base 
with them to see if there is a simple answer.

Steve,

Sounds like something changed with your host. Have you set debug = 2 and 
restarted WeeWX? There will be extra detail in the log that may give a 
clue. Any chance your password has unusual characters? Perhaps try single 
or double quoting the password (just make sure you use a code editor so you 
don't end up with open and closing quotes).

Gary
