MX has a default level of logging that stores in the [[MXdiags_folder]] folder a log file that shows some of the interaction with the weather station and some of the output actions done as MX runs. A new log is started each time MX is restarted. | |||
If there is a problem, then there is a great benefit in actually increasing the level of detail in these logs; and that is done either within the settings (on recent MX releases this is on '''Program Settings''' page of admin interface - please see [[MXdiags_folder]] page for details) or by adding a parameter: | |||
:<code>sudo mono CumulusMX.exe -debug</code> | |||

Beta builds in MX version 3.0.0 had an optional parameter <code>sudo mono EXISTING PATH/CumulusMX/CumulusMX.exe -wsport nnnn</code> that determined which port (represented by a 4 digit number ''nnnn'') was used for '''Web Sockets'''. | Beta builds in MX version 3.0.0 had an optional parameter <code>sudo mono EXISTING PATH/CumulusMX/CumulusMX.exe -wsport nnnn</code> that determined which port (represented by a 4 digit number ''nnnn'') was used for '''Web Sockets'''. | ||
That parameter [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=17887&p=138815&hilit=sockets#p138815 is now deprecated as Web Sockets in all builds since 3045] use the same port for web sockets as for the HTTP port of the [[MX_Administrative_Interface#The_API_interface|Admin Interface]], see -port parameter described earlier. | |||

Although this is not mentioned in any release announcements, it appears that on all recent MX releases this effect is incorporated into the '''-debug''' parameter. Perhaps someone could confirm whether this is true. | Although this is not mentioned in any release announcements, it appears that on all recent MX releases this effect is incorporated into the '''-debug''' parameter described earlier.
