I have loaded several months of archive data into the DB and everything looks okay except  when I look at the NOAA reports.  I removed all files from the NOAA folder and it was rebuilt on the next report cycle, and those txt files look great.  But in Seasons, when I select a month in the upper right (NOAA report) they do not match the txt files.  Are the NOAA txt files translated to some other file before displayed in Seasons?  I did remove all .png files and it made no difference.
More specifically, the txt files for each month show data for each day, as separate lines in the file.  But when displayed in Seasons, I get only a couple of days showing data.  Usually at the end of the month.  So the txt files show all the data but Seasons only displays a couple of lines.

Can you provide any more details regarding your installation? How many skins do you have installed? Are you sure, the files you have deleted and rebuilt, are the ones, that are shown in Seasons?

The Seasons skin loads the respective NOAA format report file via a call to small javascript function. No processing of the file is performed other than reading the posting the content. This html template and this javascript refer. 

The first two things I would be doing if you have forced regeneration of all NOAA format files is to check the re-generated files have been uploaded to your web server and then make sure that your web browser cache is cleared.

I am only using one skin, Seasons.  When I delete the files and they get rebuilt they do show the new data on Seasons.  In fact, the NOAA yearly report does have the correct numbers for each month.  The History reports are all correct and do update with the archive load.  It is just the monthly NOAA reports that are not displaying correctly.
I will check the web server and browser cache next.

Yes, it appears to have been some sort of caching issue.  Looks like after midnight the display updated.  I can now see all of the monthly NOAA data.  I have more archive updates to do and will look at the web server cache after each one.
