The current standard log can be updated at your usual web site update interval using ''<currentlogfile>'' as the local file name. If your web site upload interval is the same as the logging interval, there might be a conflict because of the file locking, so this might not work every time. However, extra web files are not processed all at once, so by listing this file against a higher number the chance of conflict is reduced.

#*For Cumulus 1, list this log file as the local file by specifying the parameter 'ExtraLocal[0-99]=<currentlogfile>' in [[Cumulus.ini#Section:_FTP_Site]]).  
#*For Cumulus 1, list this log file as the local file by specifying the parameter 'ExtraLocal[0-99]=<currentlogfile>' in [[Cumulus.ini_(Cumulus_1)#Section:_FTP_Site]]).  
#*For Cumulus MX, use the '''Extra web files''' option within the "Settings" tab, and enter "<currentlogfile>" in the local column.
#*For Cumulus MX, use the '''Extra web files''' option within the "Settings" tab, and enter "<currentlogfile>" in the local column.
#You can also use <currentlogfile> as part of the remote file path, as explained in the Cumulus '''Help'''. You will also need to specify a path in the remote column for MX or the 'ExtraRemote[0 to 99]=...' for Cumulus 1. You might of course want to specify a local path, and leave the FTP column unticked (or set to 0 for Cumulus 1). You can then use a separate FTP process to upload this copy.

The original Cumulus 1 software takes no notice of the <#recordsbegandate> see [[Webtags#Records]], so it is quite happy to process standard data logs with lines with earlier dates.  The same applies to '''ExportMySQL.exe'''. However, by default, '''CumulusMX.exe''' will ignore any data log lines dated before the [[Cumulus.ini#Section:_Station|start date]]  it recorded in the configuration file.
