[weewx-user] Re: Dual Skin + Dual FTP

[vince]

Put both skins under public_html and then you'll be able to transfer them 
all up to your remote server in one transaction.

/home/weewx/public_html for the Standard skin
/home/weewx/public_html/Seasons for the Seasons skin

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Power outage without RTC module

[cric...@pobox.com]

My solution was to install ntp, plus add a wait routine in 
bin/user/extensions that waits for ntpq -pn to
report sync'd time.  I use that code on the rest of my Rpi's as well.  Can 
send if interested.  FWIW, the RPi that
runs my weather station does have a RTC stacked on the serial port 
(pre-dates said code block).

[weewx-user] Dual Skin + Dual FTP

[Ton vanN]

Presently using Standard skin as basis for presentation through remote 
server,
uploading the files from folder /home/weewx/public_html to a folder at 
remote webserver by means of the built-in FTP of Weewx.
Have activated Seasons skin, saving Seasons-files in other folder 
/home/weewx/Seasons_html.
Would be convenient just to duplicate the setup and apply FTP to forward 
the Seasons-files to another folder at the remote server.
Using present weewx.conf might use RSync for the 2nd uploadchannel, but 
simplicity is preffered and hence aiming for dual FTP. 

Have looked around in the documentation and this group, but did not find 
info on simple dual parallel FTP. 
What is appropriate setup in weewx.conf to get such functionality?

Re: [weewx-user] Off topic

['Peter Fletcher' via weewx-user]

It sounds as if your weewx/solar Pi installation was one or (probably) two 
versions behind the current ('Bullseye') version of the Pi's Debian-based 
OS. While it may be possible to upgrade the OS 'around' the existing 
installed programs, it would take a lot more Linux knowledge than I am 
guessing you have, and would not be guaranteed to work - either in the 
short or in the long term. The right solution (in addition to implementing 
a better backup strategy, going forward!) is almost certainly to be to 
install the latest version of the OS on a new SD Card, reinstall weewx and 
your solar monitoring program, and migrate your data.
weewx is easy! All the data is stored in its database - presumably 
weewx.sdb, in your case.
The solar monitoring program is obviously the issue. I assume that you 
didn't write it yourself, or you would know where it stores its data. Where 
did you get it? How did you originally install it? Was/is there no 
documentation? I assume that you know what it is called - I would try doing 
a Google search for '[program name] data location', and/or '[program name] 
migrate data'. In any event, unless this produces an easy answer, your best 
bet for knowledgeable further help is likely to be The Raspberry PI User 
forums .

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Solid non-Raspbian platform for WeeWx + MariaDB?

[Owen]

I used to run Raspian on a Pi4, but my InfluxDB regularly crashed and 
sometimes even failed to restart cleanly at all due to corruption.
All sorts of random issues, including out of memory (when it wasn't).  No 
tuning of config file settings would fix it.  Drove me mental for months.  
I believe it to now be a limitation of the 32-bit OS.

Anyhooswitched to Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS (64bit) and it's been flawless 
since.

I've basically ditched Raspian completely on all my Pi's - the Ubuntu 
release is extremely stable and robust.

 Thanks Vince.  I didn't include error messages because my question was 
 (and is) whether there are other options for a small CPU I can use to 
 replace the Pi/Raspbian.  I appreciate your letting me know that you have 
 confirmed Ubuntu can work on the Pi 4, I may try that.

 I see the differences between Ubuntu (which I am getting pretty 
 familiar with) and Raspbian (which has some annoying differences in how 
 users are implemented for example, plus the various issues below) as 
 distracting from my main goals with WeeWx.  

 With regard to the SSH passwordless login issue, I have been running 
 into "Putty key format is too new" when using the keys created by Puttygen 
 in Putty to log into a remote server.  So this indicates to me that 
 Puttygen is downrev on the Pi/RaspbiOS.  I'm sure there is a way to make 
 this work but I haven't found it.  There are multiple options for 
 generating keys.  The ones I've tried don't work on Raspbian thus far.  I 
 have updated all the packages and gone through multiple reinstalls to make 
 sure I wasn't tripping on some small detail.

 I don't see how firewalls or sudo play into these problems.

 I'm hearing you that you haven't had these problems with Pi.  You are 
 clearly much more of an expert and are working from solid install/config 
 procedures that I don't have, since the (multiple) ones I've tried are not 
 getting me through to the result.

 As for MariaDB, I have used it for years and the problems I'm running 
 into with RaspiOS are ones I haven't seen on Ubuntu.  Where I am stuck on 
 that now is when running

We need to see the ftp section of the weewx.conf file in order to help

 use the 'developer tools' option in your web browser to diagnose this
 kind of problem.  that will provide lots of information about which files
 are loaded, which css attributes are applied (or not), javascript errors,
 etc.

Okay-  Looking on my web site target directory (/weather/4.8) there are not 
any .css or .js files present, only .png and .html files.  What steps will 
I need to re-populate them?  I guess I am reliant upon WEEWX to ftp 
whatever files it needs to operate.

It is but many struggle with RPIs.

My advice is

0) Ask this in RPI-land instead.
1) first image the card you have, saving it
2) figure out and implement a backup strategy for your data
3) get another card, and do an install
4) mount it someplace and look at the files in the boot partition and
   see which is different from the card that was in the machine that
   broke.  It is possible that your old system hasn't gotten the new
   packages.
5) think about using other small computers that are less pesky than the
   RPI.  I like the PC engines apu2 series, but last I checked they too
   were having supply chain issues.

[weewx-user] Off topic

[Alastair L]

Apologies in advance for this off topic question, but I'm sure someone out 
there has had  a similar issue and solved it.  

My RPi4 ran both Weewx and a program to monitor my solar panels.  The Pi 
died and I've finally managed to get a replacement.  Unfortunately when I 
transfer the SSD card to the new Pi4 I get the messages  “start4x.elf not 
compatible” and “this board requires newer software”.  It appears that the 
replacement RPi requires new firmware.  I tried running  update the 
firmware, use sudo rpi-eeprom-update -d -a  using an other 'old' RPi4 but I 
still get the same  error.  

I could of course start again with a fresh OS installation.  Weewx is not 
the issue as it's relatively straightforward to retrieve my history,  but 
it's the solar panel monitoring program that stops me doing this as I would 
lose my entire history - I cannot figure out where it saves its history to 
as it appears to save data in hidden folders.

My question is, is there a way update my SSD card to allow it to run on the 
newer RPI4  without a full re-install?

Thanks
