Problems downloading historical weather
Hi everyone,
since 2 or 3 days I had problems downloading historical weather with Active Sky X. ASX.log says, that when I checked a date of the last 2 or 3 days, that 3554 instaed of 8804 stations were scanned. When I start the program, the weather is downloading the actual without a problem and all 8804 stations were scanned but not when I want to download historical weather.
Today I tried to download the weather form January 31st and all 8804 stations were scanned but when I try to download the weather from February 5 or 6 or from today just the 3554 stations were scanned. Then I bought ASA today but the same problems with historical weather from the last 2 or 3 days. Are there any problems with the servers? It always tries to download historical weather from primary server and then this "error" occured. When the program starts, the data is downloading from the secondary server the actual weather and it seems to work.
Has anyone an idea?
Sorry for my bad english :-).
Regards
Sebastian
Hi, Do you have all the
Hi,
Do you have all the Enhanced/Virtual/ station options checked On? In ASX and ASA they are called different things.
Thanks,

Hi Jim,the virtual stations
Hi Jim,
the virtual stations option is checked on, the ehanced not. The strange thing is that I can download the historical weather before February and the actual weather when ASA starts without any problems but when I want to download some historical weather from February 2010 just half of the stations are checked.
Tried to download historical weather again, this time with Active Sky X. It didn´t work, especially the stations at Australia. I will post my ASX.log, maybe it helps. Same result with ASA:

As you can see, 8068 stations were scanned for the actual weather. Then I tried to download the weather for 07.02.2010. Then just 3554 stations were scanned, for 02.02.2010 just 7595 stations were scanned and for 31.01.2010 all 8068 stations were scanned as it was the hole time. I don´t know what happened, I haven´t changed anything.

Hi, I don't think there is
Hi,
I don't think there is anything wrong here. At different times of the 24 hour day, many stations do not report, are closed down and so on. Hence the data numbers change so there is going to be some variations.
