    Collect weather data for 08/01/2014 00:00:00
    No data retrieve!
    No data retreive!

    R-B,
    it was due to the fact that there is no historical data for Hockenheim (web site bug?), and when no data was received, i stopped the whole collect process, so no data at all was retrieved.

    V1.1.4.1 fix the problem (but i can not create historical data for Hockenheim :))

    I collect data provided by the web site, it is not my own code that decide which interval to use. So if the website provide me some data with 10mn interval, you will have this 10mn interval in the tool.

    Hi, does someone have an idea for automating the process of downloading climate and restarting the RF2 Server?

    Hi Gerald

    Would it be possible to implement so sort of date mapping to enable gathering of weather data over multiple days like an F1 Weekend. Example: Friday = Practice, Saturday = Qualy, Sunday = Race).

    Thanks in advance for your help

    Hello. It is already possible to define a date per session. So one date for practice. Another for qualif and another for race (simply unselect the chain buttons)

    Gerald, i found a bug in the tool.

    When i collect weather (this case Mid Ohio), the tool notices dates 18-02-2014, 19-02-2014 and 20-02-2014. But when i do a check on uk.weather channel, it is the forecast from dates 17-02-2014, 18-02-2014 and 19-02-2014.

    The tool takes the wrong date? The forecast is right, just wrong dates?

    Is it a full day shift or is it due to the to the time local shift between your location and the time location provided by uk.weather ?

    its a full day shift, the difference between netherlands and UK is just 1 hour.

    When i collect now, date is 18-02-2014, time 05.00

    On the site is that 17-02-2014, time 05.00

    Hi Gerald, I'm using your tool for more than a year on my website...it's very cool!! Today, however, I can not create the weather because the site is offline http://7timer.y234.cn/. There isn't other solution to create a future weather? I think I've understood that i can add other weather sites in WeatherConfig.xml...can you show a weather site that works with your tool? thanks
