Re: [weewx-user] $almanac varying values

[Tom Keffer]

Pressure and temperature also factor into the calculation. If you want to
hold them constant as well, then use something like:

$current.dateTime , $almanac(almanac_time=1655805600, temperature=20.0,
pressure=1010.0).sunrise

See the section *Almanac
* in the Customizing
Guide.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: cant registrer my weather stations

[Tom Keffer]

It is weird. It's possible the problem is related to an "upgrade" in perl,
or MySQL. Don't know.

 Lets see your [Station] stanza from weewx.conf please.  I'm guessing
 that you have strange characters in there possibly in your 'location = '
 line or nearby.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: first user - a lot of issues

[Tom Keffer]

(Vince, I think he went to the correct link.)

Alex, what operating system are you using? These days, almost all operating
systems put something in /var/log.

If we can't figure it out, there is a way to get WeeWX to log to a standard
file. Add this to the bottom of weewx.conf:

[Logging]
[[root]]
  handlers = rotate,

[[handlers]]
# Log to a set of rotating files
[[[rotate]]]
level = DEBUG
formatter = verbose
class = logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler
filename = /var/tmp/weewx.log
maxBytes = 1000
backupCount = 4

This will put the weewx-related log entries in /var/tmp/weewx.log. Post
that.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: first user - a lot of issues

[vince]

Try again.  The next-to-last link in the FAQ.

You have to work a 'little' here please.  I'd suggest you also look into 
some free linux courses online to help you learn linux enough.

[weewx-user] $almanac varying values

[Karen K]

I was unsure about some results of the $alamanac tag. So I created a test 
template. It is very short. It calculates the sunrise time for June 21st, 
2022:

$current.dateTime , $almanac(almanac_time=1655805600).sunrise

Every archive period a file is created out of that template. And I 
collected those files. 

I would expect to get the same sunrise time all the time. But I don't. 

Could someone explain the reason for that behavior?

The different files for the different archive periods are (one line per 
file):

Re: [weewx-user] Re: cant registrer my weather stations

[Tom Keffer]

The problem is the "location" option. Here's the error showing up on
weewx.com:

2022.11.03 17:45:34 execute failed: Incorrect string value:
'\xCE\x9C\xCE\xB5\xCF\x84...' for column 'description' at row 1
reg={description=Μετεωρολογικός Σταθμός Νέων Μουδανιών
Χαλκιδικής,last_addr=87.202.32.10,last_seen=1667497534,latitude=40.2430,longitude=23.2770,platform_info=Linux-5.10.0-16-amd64-x86_64-with-glibc2.31,python_info=3.9.2,station_model=WΗ1080,station_type=FineOffsetUSB,station_url=
https://kairos.moudania.com,user_agent=weewx/4.9.1,weewx_info=4.9.1}

Unfortunately, the registry does not handle utf-8 characters well, which is
a known problem. See Issue #7 .

I would fix it myself, but all that stuff is written in Perl by mwall, and
I don't have a clue how that language works.

My apologies.

[weewx-user] Re: UDP listener (for Weatherflow Tempest) won't run

[vince]

It's not hearing anything.   Your hub is either offline or your network 
isn't getting the broadcast messages to the system you're listening on. 
 Did you perhaps VLAN your network and put the hub on a different VLAN ?

You'll need to crtl-C twice to stop it.  The error is normal so it can be 
ignored.

 hey Guys,

 I'm trying weewx for the first time, no experience in python, a little 
 bit in php

 done the setup as required.

 running ubuntu as a virtual machine on windows, want to check it out 
 before i buy a raspberry.

 problems: in the config file I see a lot of setups which I dont get 
 when performing the the how to.

 sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog doesn't exist, I'm stuck with the nOrth 
 pole default thing.

 and sudo ./bin/weewxd doesn't exist???

 although i configured the config manually and copied it.

 what files do you want to troubleshout?

 I've set up a cumulusMX, pwsWD and a meteotemplate website, so this 
 should work too?

 Bare with me please,

 THX

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weewx-wh23xx - Weewx breaks starting/running after upgrade from 3.9.2 to 4.0

[Tom Keffer]

We are still not seeing any debug messages, so I suspect that you may still
have more than one instance of weewxd running. Kill them all with:

sudo killall weewxd

Then try starting weewxd again. Post  the log.

[weewx-user] UDP listener (for Weatherflow Tempest) won't run

[weatherl...@gmail.com]

I realize this is not strictly a WeeWx issue but perhaps Vince can see from 
the Terminal results below what I might be doing wrong.

I've always been able to run this but can get it to work this time.

Ubuntu 20.04
UDP Listener V 4.x

I issue:
/Downloads/WeeWx/weatherflow-udp-listener-master$ python3 listen.py 
--decoded

and nothing happens.

When I hit Ctrl-C, this is the result.







*^CTraceback (most recent call last):  File "listen.py", line 785, in 
t.join()  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/threading.py", line 1011, in

I know the Tempest is working as I receive its data in the Tempest App on 
the iPad.

[weewx-user] Re: cant registrer my weather stations

[vince]

Yes, the location in Greek (?) characters seems to be the issue

You seem to have registered https://kairos.moudania.com/kolxiko/ 
successfully in the past with Greek characters according to 
https://groups.google.com/g/weewx-user/c/9eAWjrvbIAU/m/JUwjf8X-CQAJ so do 
whatever you did then for that site.

Perhaps your os isn't set to a greek language ?   Try the 'locale' command 
on both systems and see if there are any differences.

[weewx-user] Re: OS-WEEWX compatibility question

[vince]

There is no need to change your os to add Home Assistant under docker...

But to answer:

   - weewx runs fine on debian on any hardware, as well as debian 
   derivatives (RaspiOS, Ubuntu)


   - Home Assistant in docker runs fine on a pi4 over RaspiOS


   - If you purchase a Flirc case for your pi4 it will idle under 50C with 
   no reboots required.

While you can run HA and weewx on the same pi, be aware that HA does a lot 
of disk writes and this might stress your SD card.  Even on a pi4 you might 
find the HA performance a bit slow.  I started that way here and moved HA 
to a i3 NUC in docker (over ubuntu LTS) and it is much more responsive and 
stable.

Ignore the HA people saying 'you must run debian'.  They're referring to 
adding HA on top of an os, not running HA in a 'container' under Docker. 
 It doesn't matter what os you're running docker on really.

[weewx-user] OS-WEEWX compatibility question

[Kruse Ludington]

Does WEEX run on Debian OS on the Raspberry PI? I am currently using 
Raspbian OS (that the RPI came with), but I am being somewhat "pushed" to 
change it

That may sound "odd" but below is the reason why -

Current setup:

My long term goal was to use my Raspberry PI for a bunch of stuff, not just 
WEEWX and here is a slight compatibility problem. Hardware and software 
setup listed below, then main question is at the bottom:

Hardware:

   - Raspberry PI 4 (8GB Ram and booting off of an SSD so it is pretty 
   fast). 
   - Connected to a fiber 1GB connection by ethernet for reliability
   - Running it headless (access over local network via VNC & Telnet) -
   - Bluetooth, sound and HDMI ports all turned off to maximize available 
   CPU. The weather station is an AmbientWeather WS-2902C about 9 months old.

Software:

   - I have WEEWX running like a top (very well) and recently updated it to 
   the latest version. It is using the "Interceptor" driver to listen to the 
   weather station  to collect the data, and sends data out to ten places: 
   Windy, Wundergound, WindGuru, OWM, Meteoservices, Weather365, PWSWeather, 
   WeatherCloud, AWEKA and WOW
   - Running on the default OS that came with the RPI (which I consistently 
   keep up to date via VNC) - Raspbian.
   - Partially as learning excercise,  I have two two decent scripts 
   running on it:
  - One that turns it's fans on when the CPU exceeds 65 degrees celcius 
  and turns back off when it drops below 55 celcius.
  - A nightly reboot script as a cron job that emails me with details 
  on processes first shut-down and then gently reboots the RPI (takes place 
a 
  few minutes after my router reboots in the middle of the night).
   - Home Assistant* ("Supervised" version), which is pretty involved but 
   can do amazing things regarding home automation. It was pure luck that 
   there is also a very good integration with the AmbientWeather weather 
   station that I am using so I can set up lights in certain rooms to turn on 
   automatically with brightness that is inversely proportional to the 
   berightness outside, send reminders to close specific windows that are open 
   when it starts raining, remind me to close the garage if left open too 
   long, etc., etc., etc.,

The creator of Home Assistant is a company named "Nabu Casa". The vast 
majority of Home Assistant users run their setup on a dedicated machine 
with the Home Assistant OS. With that setup, they do not allow ANY other 
software to run on the machine. There is one exception which I am using, 
and that is to run Home Assistant on Debian OS in a container - and that is 
what I am doing - even so, they still insist I use Debian, as my setup is 
considerd "unsupported" (ugh)... (They also alow me to run it in a VM but I 
haven't gone that route).

I was also thinking maybe I would get a dedicated mini PC or a second RPI 
and have them talk to each other, but #1 that's not in the budget right 
now, and 2. it might be overkill... (RPI CPU levels and temperature is 
still within very acceptable limits)...

Thoughts?

All working fine.
Many thanks for the new release.

 I have successfully installed the steelseries gauges and the rtgd 
 extension. All works fine and it is fantastic to see the gauges updating 
 in 
 real time.

 Just one small problem - the Wind Direction gauge shows latest and 
 average, but the average is always the same as the latest. Tried playing 
 with the rtgd.py program but even when I set data[avgdirection] to a 
 different value, nothing  changes.

 Any ideas?

 Thanks for spotting this. There is an issue is v0.5.5 that maps current 
 wind direction to both the 'bearing' and 'avgbearing' fields used by the 
 SteelSeries gauges. I should have a fix by tomorrow.

 I have successfully installed the steelseries gauges and the rtgd 
 extension. All works fine and it is fantastic to see the gauges updating 
 in 
 real time.

 Just one small problem - the Wind Direction gauge shows latest and 
 average, but the average is always the same as the latest. Tried playing 
 with the rtgd.py program but even when I set data[avgdirection] to a 
 different value, nothing  changes.

 Any ideas?
