Below is a list of the Log files within Cumulus.  Descriptions, and tips, can also be found in the Help file within the Cumulus software.
This category is to be deprecated. Currently, it is only for legacy Cumulus 1
Essentially, there are 3 types:
# .ini files - these hold values that represent sums, counts, or extremes, for cumulus to read and maintain as it reads the weather observations.
[[Category:Cumulus 1]]
# .txt files - these are the logs that Cumulus updates at defined intervals to hold details of what has happened.
# .xml file - this holds the [[Weather_Diary]].


These files apply to both Cumulus 1 and Cumulus MX.  Note that file names are case-sensitive, read documentation to see where capital letters are required.


Cumulus MX also has some JSON files with data for its trends web page.

Essentially, there are 4 types:
# '''.ini''' files - these hold values that represent sums, counts, or extremes, for cumulus to read, and update, as it reads the weather observations, click on links below for details
# '''.txt''' files - these are the logs that Cumulus updates at defined intervals to hold details of what has happened, but it can also read these files when requested, click on links below for details
#* '''[[Speciallog.txt]]'''  is only Cumulus 1.
# '''.xml''' file - this holds the Cumulus 1 [[Weather_Diary]]. Although it uses standard XML, the component that Cumulus 1 uses also writes a special value that other XML editors will not understand.
#  '''.log''' files, see both [[Debug.log|this page]] and [[Diags_folder|this page]] for Cumulus 1 diagnostics
