Recently - not sure when as I was away for a couple of weeks - I have started seeing gaps in charted data for several Ecowitt sensors I have.
Soil temp, soil moisture are two. Example is shown. The Ecowitt app shows the data are present and its not everything - I have a CO2/IAQ sensor and that seems to work. Rebooting has not helped. Any thoughts?

rebooting when did not help ?
What is interesting is that the loss of data occurs always at the same time and data comes back at the same time.
something happens at midnight that makes the data reappear. And around 13:00 that makes them disappear.
When these gaps do not exist in the ecowitt.net dashboard, it's likely not to be a sensor issue and probably not a console issue either.
What about the other sensors - do they also show gaps ?
What does the log file say ? (System --> Logging)
What is the sensor reading age in the RAW sensor data page in a gap ?
What console are you using resp. what driver are you using inside MB - the GW1000 or the Ecowitt custom server driver ?
If it's the GW1000 driver, it could be a network infrastructure issue.
Did you make the IP address of the console fixed - by creating an IP address/MAC address binding in your router ?
If not (and the GW1000 API interface used), if the DHCP server of the router has a 12 h lease time, it may assign a new IP address - and MB wouldn't receive the console data anymore, and after the next 12 hours reassign the old (but meanwhile free) IP address again and would receive the sensor data again from the console.

@grwkak: That can have many reasons. Does the "System - Log File" tab show any errors? If there is no indication I can offer to login remotely and check myself. Please send URL and password to "info(at)meteobridge.com" if you want me to have a look.

Gaps exist for soil temp, soil moisture, and a T/RH gauge - I will setup remote access and email info.
Beginning to wonder if its a graphing issue of some sort.
Graph data intervals were at 10 mins - when I regenerate a graph I see gaps in the data until I use a 1 hour interval. Then data displays just fine.
Also looking at the raw sensor data - for the sensors in question its not old data.
Some days ago I had with mapping added one sensor, that I didn't add before. However, it's data wasn't shown after 24 hours, so that was weird. Next I did a reboot after 7 days running, thinking that the mapping wasn't picked up and after that I had the same problems with the graphs. MB was updated to version 22 September now. When displaying in one minute interval or for example hour or day interval, everything was fine. But displaying for example min10 that went wrong. Strange enough the sensor that I added was the only one giving some data on time points that others didn't do.
See screen shots.

Are you storing data persistently on per-minute intervals? This needs to be switched on at "system - Administration" tab. Otherwise sub-hour data is just kept in RAM and there variants of per-minute resolution might not work.
If persistent per-minute storage is enabled and 1min works but 10mins does not, then something is wrong. It would help to inspect that on your system. Please mail URL to "info(at)meteobridge.com"

Yep, per-minute storage is enabled.
I will try to email (using another address) the credentials. Can't see the PM function - but know its there having used it in the past.

you don't need a PM function in the forum software - just read what @admin wrote:

I see there has been a reboot yesterday evening and an update to the version of September 24th. In my case the problem is gone. Normal graphs again, for min1, min5, min10, etc.
Related questions maybe. In my case only mapped data are stored in a per-minute database.
Data that isn't mapped, how long is that stored in minute interval?
And once no longer stored in per-minute database. What is stored? Hourly timepoints? Or hourly averages with min/max values?
