Re: [weewx-user] No logs at *ALL*??!

2023-03-14 Thread Paul R Anderson 
Seems like your system uses systemd since you state that you tried "I run
systemctl start weewx"
Based on that weewx seems to have a unit file name of "weewx"
Under Systemd you can use journalctl to query the contents of the systemd
journal.
You can pass it a unit file name, and start stop ranges alone with a lot of
other options.
You should be able to see all logging activity since 2023 02 01 with:

sudo journalctl -u weewx.service --since "2023-02-01"

where -u is the unit name, --since is a date in -MM-DD format
Also you can redirect output to a file to save it
 sudo journalctl -u weewx.service --since "2023-02-01">/var/tmp/weewx.log

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Roughly how many weewx users are there?

2023-03-14 Thread Paul Dunphy 
    Thanks, Jonathan.  Those stations are the ones who voluntarily 
chose to register their station with the weewx registry.  That is a 
field in the weewx.conf file that defaults to not doing so, specifically:


    [[StationRegistry]]
    # To register this weather station with weewx, set this to true,
    # then fill out option 'station_url', located in the [Station] 
section above.

    register_this_station = false

    According to the weewx authors, there's no accurate way of knowing 
the number of active users.  They know the number of downloads of the 
software, the number of subscribers to the discussion group, etc.  None 
of these metrics indicate the correct number of active users.  Tom's 
"best guess" is about 10,000.


    When anyone asks me, I say "I believe around 10,000."

Do any developers have a ballpark figure of how many active 
instances of weewx are being used worldwide?  Now and then, people 
ask me how widely it's used.  I'd like to say "by about 1000, 5000, 
10,000."

Take a look at the section *Where to find things

User's Guide to locate your log.
