I am not exactly sure what occurred which is why I was looking for a tool to inspect it deeper. Only thing I know for sure was that UPS backup was so run down and deteriorated that the commercial power slamming off and on in rapid succession was passed through to the PC and if it occurred right during a data update cycle from the sensors somehow the whole transaction became so confused that the local page in the /var/www/html folder did not have a correct date time string on it; and a simmilar problem happened to the report generated for transfer via ftp to my personal web page. and neither of these agreed with each other. and neither was the actual time of the data update. Successive updates or page reloads/refreshes displayed these same frozen data pages. Once the system shut down for a week and restarted it began with no existing archive data showing on any graphs but current display data from sensors properly processed and updated properly every 5 mins approx.

Not clear what you're asking, but I'd like to know more about the corruption of the database. I spent a lot of time making sure that commits were atomic. Did I miss something? Could you be more specific about what's wrong with the database?

    I had a major commercial power failure about 10 days ago. In the
    process
    it ran the UPS down almost completely such that when the last few
    power
    surge/bumps/fails occured something in the date time pointer
    system , I
    believe in the SQL databse became disconnected and immediate
    restart of
    the program on power restoral Had the local /var/www/html page was a
    wrong date and the FTP'd  page sent to my web site also had a corrupt
    date/Time string and neither agreed nor were either  at all real
    cuurent
    time accurate.

    I shut down the PC with the intent of looking for a mySQL dB
    troubleshooting/repair software application and attempting to correct
    the corrupted data when I had time.  About a week later I found
    time to
    take a look at the problem and when I restated the PC , with the
    intent
    of halting weewx to troubleshooting the dB. It all came back working
    normally but with no back archived data available but it appears the
    delay from it being down so long allowed it to restart and regenerate
    the consistent web pages and messages.

    So although it is back working now, I would like to know if their
    is a
    recommended dB software /data repair/maintenance package available
    that
    is open source freeware either standalone program or possibly
    something
    like a plug option/package to use with a browser similar to
    phpmyadmin.

    My 2nd takeaway is when urgent commercial power fails get to the
    weewx
    PC and shut it down immediately in an orderly fashion before the 8-10
    min UPS backup support runs out.

    Any pointers are welcome, considering so many outside agancies use
    the
    data (eg AWEKAS, CWOP/NOAA/aprs/ WeatherUnderground in addition to
    my on
    local and www page.

    Thanks 73
