Hi, i need some help.

I'm getting the following error:
vproReceiveArchiveState: read failed
at the end of my /var/log/messages file.

When i place an old .wlk file from weatherlink (windows) Sad

in /var/wview/archive/*.wlk i'm not getting the error anymore.

Then the next problem is that wview is generating the html files from the "old" .wlk file i placed in the /var/wview/archive directory.
But it is not reading data from the "Vantage pro Plus" network port
while i can see that it connects to my RS232-IP server.
I can read the VP console config with
vpconfig my-ip-adress:3001 show.

i'm using :
- metric
- mysql
- pro plus parameters
- radlib 2.6.2 with mysql
- process runs as ROOT

Your serial interface is not right - you are apparently using a terminal server and the terminal server may be doing some processingon the data stream.

Just because vpconfig works does not mean that binary data will not be filtered by the terminal server.

Read the UM carefully concerning setting up transparent data pass through for terminal servers.

OK, i will try to change some settings on my B&B electronics ESP9002.
thanks for the advice.

It works OK indeed on my /dev/ttyS0 port.

/*
I could not try this before because there was no rs232 port on the
linux box anymore ( those new cpu boxes).
I had to install an old pci card.
