Script problems v1.0n

V1.0n / XP

I have made a script:
------------------------
download,http://131.54.133.44/cgi-bin/ProductSea ... 63,d:\Mijn Documenten\Digital Atmosphere\data\Nederland.dat
;
download,http://www.atmos.albany.edu/weather/dat ... mo,d:\Mijn Documenten\Digital Atmosphere\data\metar.dat
;
same for synop, buoy, radiosonde, lightning etc.
;
import,d:\Mijn Documenten\Digital Atmosphere\data\*.*
-----------------------
This script gives a problem. Nederland.dat (the 1st entry) does not work in the script but it works perfect in the normal data retrieval. Looking in the downloaded file shows that it gives some headers: <HTML><BODY><PRE>SINL06 KAWN 091500 AAXX 09151 06210.

So for testing I made a script with just the entry for Nederland.dat. Running this it turned out that also metar, synop etc. from previous runs were decoded. This does not happen when I get it with the normal data retrieval.

I tested this and saw no problem. You can look at data.usr when the
import is complete and verify that the files were combined.

However I note you are mixing SYNOP and METAR data. This can bring in
data from two different time ranges and cause only one of the sets to plot.
You should see what times are being imported, and if necessary, expand
the Control Panel > Time Selection to "All".

I tried it again and now it works??? Perhaps it has to do with the time selection. I will try on a later moment again.
I put everything in 1 script for test purpose. These are not original scripts.

The second problem was my fault. I made a new test script for 1 URL but forgot to delete the already downloaded files. They were again imported in DAWS. Sorry.

OK. Let me know if there are any further problems.
