RUMlogNG resetting LotW status

[PE2V]

It may help, when you wait few minutes after uploading to LoTW before you upload to eQSL.

Does not make any differences.... I participate 2 times a week the CWops CWT and after importing the contest log, I wait a couple of minutes, open the iPhone app to see if the QSO's are also in RUMlogNG2GO. Upload to LOTW or eQSL. Wait a couple of minutes while clicking around. Then I upload to eQSL or LOTW. This is what is happening every time (I'm glad I make about 20 QSO's per CWT):

When first upload to eQSL and second to LOTW, the LOTW status will go from S to W after a couple of minutes.
When first upload to LOTW and second to eQSL, the LOTW status goes from S to W directly after the eQSL upload is complete.

And I don't know if this is a RUMlogNG, iCloud or iMac Catalina issue. Or an issue on my iMac only. But it is annoying. Every time I need to open every single QSO to change the status.

But what it makes probably related: When I make a selection like 'Mode CW' or 'Mode CW Year 2023' because I need to change QSL statuses, it does not always keep the selection. I need to go back to all and make the selection again. Don't know if this has something to do with the QSL status thing....

On which devices do you use RUMlog? Do you log on a Mac?
Switch off all the other devices. Will it happen again? Have you tried to delete the sandbox container?

Yes, I run es log with RUMlogNG on iMac Catalina and RUMlogNG2GO on my iPhone 8 only fer /P logging but therefor I use a separate logbook file. Not iCloud.

Switch off all the other devices. Will it happen again?

Ok! Did not try that. Switching off the iPhone would be good to test! tnx!

Have you tried to delete the sandbox container?

Euhm I don’t know what you mean. Is this ‘sandbox’ visible at the import window? If so, the issue appears also with a single QSO logged into RUMlogNG, not only when importing. It only hurts more after importing hehe

macOS stores all related app data in a special folder. When you delete it, you have a clean install and you loose all settings!

• Backup your logbook - Export to file, or do a complete ADIF export.
• Quit RUMlog.
• Back up first and then delete the folder in your home directory: ~/Library/Containers/de.dl2rum.RUMlogNG . You may just see ~/Library/Containers/RUMlogNG in the Finder.
• Reboot the Mac
• Start RUMlog and select the iCloud-synced logbook from the Logbook menu.
• The logbook should appear after a short time.

Most of the settings are stored in ~/Users/dl2rum/Library/Containers/de.dl2rum.RUMlogNG/Data/Library/Preferences
Few files are stored in ~/Users/dl2rum/Library/Containers/de.dl2rum.RUMlogNG/Data/Library/Application\ Support/de.dl2rum.RUMlogNG
Later you could copy back these files/folders to restore your setup. But a real clean install would be better a better try to fix your problem.

Okay, it’s scary but I’ll try and report here!

Thanks for your support!

This makes a difference! I added 3 QSO's this morning but kept the iPhone off. And all is working fine. After a certain time I put on the iPhone and still the QSL status is good and the QSO's are visible in the 2GO app. So a good workaround fer now.

Next week I'll do what you described Friday!

When you can confirm this over the next days, I would recommend to delete and reinstall RUMlog from your iPhone first. There are far fewer settings to restore.

Thanks. I'll do that.

And you're right, with 2 TRX's (IC-7300 es FT-891) and two transverters (VHF es UHF) and rotor interface it's a bit more to setup/restore on the iMac hehe.

Today I imported 22 CWT contest QSO's into RUMogNG iCLoud log while the iPhone was off. Uploaded to LotW first, second uploaded to eQSL and boom... sadly all statuses back to W fer LoTW. So, shutting down the iPhone does not help.

I'm a bit scared reinstalling RUMlogNG on the iMac but I have to I'm afraid.
