[weewx-user] Your hardware experience (for running WeeWX, the service)

2024-02-22 Thread 'michael.k...@gmx.at' via weewx-user
I'm curious what hardware you are running WeeWX on, and your experience with it. So, this is not about the weather station and the sensors, but the device which is running the service. The reason I ask this here, is because the issues I experienced with my hardware might be related to weewx and

You're going to need to share your weewx.conf file for this one. You have to be referencing gpio stuff somewhere under the hood. Running 'weectl extension list' would help explain your setup too On Thursday, February 22, 2024 at 2:18:28 AM UTC-8 Glen N wrote: > After updating DietPi to

gary - your (re)install upgrade will be quicker if you pre-seed your NOAA files (Belchertown has its own copy too if you use that). Feel free to PM me if you want to hear my somewhat different way of getting from v4 setup to v5 pip (and multi). On Thursday, February 22, 2024 at 6:28:15 AM

Jamie - I didn't change anything related to how the driver actually works. I just added one line to hopefully get it to register vs. v5 weewx. The map shows a few v5 sites using that driver now, so that part seems to be working. On Thursday, February 22, 2024 at 7:24:23 AM UTC-8 Jamie

There's nothing special about /home/weewx. You could do *cp -rp /home/weewx ~/weewx-data* *cd ~/weewx-data* *mv bin bin.old* *mkdir bin* *cp -r ./bin.old/user bin * You'll have to adjust your systemd service file to reflect the new location. -tk On Thu, Feb 22, 2024 at 6:28 AM

It looks like the author of the driver is trying to insert a string into a byte array. You should file an issue on the repository's issue list. On Thu, Feb 22, 2024 at 6:00 AM Jamie Stephens wrote: > i manually restarted it and it's running right now just the registry push > error but not

I fixed my issue today by modifying the bme280wx-master/install.py script to use the correct i2c_address: 'i2c_address': '0x77'. It was set to 0x76. I then uninstalled the extension and reinstalled it. Thanks again! Jeff On Thu, Feb 22, 2024 at 8:08 AM Pierre-Yves wrote: > Hello Jeff, > >

Amen to that. Funny how things creep in and when you try to change one thing, others break. I just did that with mosquitto. Didn't want it running as root anymore. I found it is quite picky about the SSL certs location and permissions. Take the time to install properly with a fresh OS and

Thanks for the options. I don't want to have a "hybrid" so won't be following the migration guide method. Makes more sense to me to install new, install extensions and skins, edit in my config from the existing (old) weewx.conf, copy the database over, remove the old systemd service file, add
