Not reporting total daily rainfall

Post by goombah »

Hi all. Recently had to reinstall due to some filesystem corruption on the SDHC card my Raspberry PI was using. This is the 2nd time in a couple of month, so I used a new stick this time. I have everything up and running, apparently, and re-licensed, but I can't remember what I did to get total daily rainfall uploaded to WUnderground. I am showing 0.68 inches on the console, but WUnderground is showing 0 inches for the day.

Oddly, the busted system was reporting data up to WUnderground, but also showed 0 accumulation. That oddity is what lead me to digging around and discovering the SDHC corruption. When I rebooted on the bad SDHC, it was ugly, complete with /dev/ttyUSB0 not being found. Backup chips, with just the base install, booted just fine, complete with /dev/ttyUSB0 being found.

Any thoughts?

More rain this morning, and WUndergroup is now recording it, so I'm guessing that value is not transmitted from the console to WUnderground. Makes sense, since there is not an "Accumulated Rainfall" sensor.
