30% from epg is missing

hay
Why is this happening? I made a file last weekend and uploaded it to my server. It pulled up a full and normal broadcast schedule and for two days only. after 2 days 70% is updated and everything else is not. What am I doing wrong? Now after I run again the command run in config maker on the computer and uploaded the file again to the server again, it again pulls up a full broadcast schedule. But the operation with the run is supposed to be a one-time operation no?, and update on its own, no?, so why isn't the file updated on its own, why am I required to run again every few days

webgrab doesnt update on its own.
use task scheduler(windows) or crond(linux) to have it run daily or whenever you want.

I don't understand once I created the file for the first time and uploaded it to the server and got an address with an xml extension the file shouldn't automatically pull an update to the channels? After all, this is the idea of working with webgrab after creating the file and sending it to the server, it should be updated, the other channels were updated on their own, so why some of the channels were not updated as well, I would appreciate a detailed explanation, thanks to whoever answers

As BlackBear explained, grabbing is not automatic, you need to set a script to run wg++ everyday to grab epg.
In config you set "update" to c to get new channel list, then you change to f or i to get epg, once you do that you need to tell your computer to run wg++ and transfer the guide you want.

So just a question, do I need to run the run command every few days? and then upload the latest updated xml file to the server?
When you say i need to run wg++
You mean to run command?

see here..
http://webgrabplus.com/documentation/interact-your-pvr-software

is you server local or remote of the pc running webgrab.
if local u should be able to copy that file with another task using your scheduler.
if remote the you will need to create a bat script that uploads the file(again run on a schedule).
google this,there's plenty of information out there on how to do it.
we dont get into is much here as users uses so many diff OS(windows,linux,docker,nas,ect) its all different.
