[weewx-user] "First Light", working, but with some problems

[Craig Young]

After writing a new driver for my station and configuring weewx to support 
its  data stream I was able to run weewx live for a few minutes, then shut 
it down to check SYSLOG (debug=2).
There appears to be two problems (see attached syslog excerpt):

a) The database and reports are updating on two minutes intervals.  The 
config file has this set for 1 minute intervals:
"INFO weewx.engine: Using archive interval of 60 seconds (software record 
generation)"

 Maybe there is some other setting required?

b) There are several HTTP ERROR 429: TOO MANY REQUESTS messages.  Not sure 
why this is happening.

I think I am close to a fully operational system, just need to clean up a 
few things.

Re: [weewx-user] WUnderground test

The WeatherFlowUDP driver is a nice example of one that listens for 
broadcast data and does the right thing.  You could use that perhaps as a 
basis for doing your own driver that matches your gear.  The WeatherFlowUDP 
driver is 'very' stable and reliable so it would be a great starting point 
especially if your station is broadcasting data in JSON format.

Either way, I'd recommend you go wired ethernet for your weewx system and 
(ideally) your logger if possible to avoid wifi-related missed broadcasts.

 You would think you would be pretty safe doing this, though with WU's

 well.

[weewx-user] Re: A low level priority question: A question about multi-instances of WeeWx and a more powerful processor on the horizon

[vince]

A pi4 can run quite a lot very easily especially if you dockerize your 
weewx setups.  The new v5 as Tom mentioned would make it much simpler as 
well if you wanted to go that way (one installation of 'code' and different 
trees for data/skins/config files) although you would need to cook up your 
own startup file setup.

Really comes down to whether your current weewx installations 
hypothetically need to attach to the same physical serial/usb port or 
network port.  If there's no contention there, should be easy to do.

Re: [weewx-user] A low level priority question: A question about multi-instances of WeeWx and a more powerful processor on the horizon

[Tom Keffer]

One v5 change that makes it easier to run multiple instances is that all
station data has now been cleanly separated from the "code." So you can put
skins, configuration files, and even extensions in a separate place for
each station. That makes it a lot easier to keep track of what instance is
using which configuration file and skin.

As far as compute power is concerned, unless you're running some very
intensive reports, I would think an RPi 4 would have no trouble running 3
instances.

I run 3 instances on a 15 year old fit-PC with 512MB of memory and a 32-bit
AMC Geode processor running at 500 MHz and it has no problem.

Re: [weewx-user] A low level priority question: A question about multi-instances of WeeWx and a more powerful processor on the horizon

[p q]

I haven't been following the story of having multiple Weewx on a single
computer. What's the problem? Performance - then having a faster computer
would help? Instances relying on the same resources to do the same thing?
Having more compute power won't help that, but it might make it more
practical to use containers or some other virtualization technology that
was previously limited by the hardware.

[weewx-user] A low level priority question: A question about multi-instances of WeeWx and a more powerful processor on the horizon

[DR]

I have three different RaspPi units running WeeWx from some of my 
stations (like most with this hobby, some obsessions like more than one 
seems somewhat common).


I know it has been said that neither WeeWx was designed to do, nor is 
easy to accomplish, multiple instances running on a single RaspPi.


I also just heard that there is a new version of Rasp Pi coming, a 5, 
sometimes towards the end of the year, with between 2 and 4 times the 
computing ability of the Pi4.  4 is no slouch, and runs fine, but Ihave 
three of them sitting on the shelf doing their solitary thing.


I have my versions pretty well tweaked, but still have a lot of work to 
do for my attempt at a very simple driver, I am dreaming of maybe a nice 
end-of-year present of a new RaspPi 5 and WeeWx 5, and having all the 
stations running off one computer.



Are any of the changes to the upcoming WeeWx 5 likely making it easier 
to run it in what I call  multiple instances (probably the wrong use of 
the word) on the same computer?

Re: [weewx-user] WUnderground test

[Craig Young]

The data logger is a broadcast type, meaning it outputs the current data 
every 60 seconds (ie, it is not polled by the driver).  If the weewx driver 
fails to get one or more of these data then the data base is not accurate 
and hence any daily totals will be wrong.  For me, the most important data 
is the daily rain amount, for agricultural reasons.  So if the weewx driver 
fails to get one or more records on a day, it will be updated correctly 
with the daily rain on the next successful read, assuming of course the 
driver is not down during the span across midnight.  In which case I can 
download the data from the data logger, run it through a conversion 
program, then add the missing data to the database.  At the moment what I 
am doing is letting weewx calculate the daily rain amount.  But I am also 
display signal3 which is the daily rain from the data logger.  If there is 
a discrepancy then I will notice it and fix it.  I will most likely stay 
with this approach.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Getting no chart or graph - just the looped data

[kd4e]

OK. Clean install with careful model settings, etc. Working 100% 
Awesomeness!
Thanks for this - I've been wanting to use it for years but always some 
distraction. I've referred many others to WeeWx.
Being able to devote an inovato Quadra to the project keeps the setup 
neater.
The HTML page looks nice.

 @Tom Keefer the current version of WeeWX, v4.10.2, as well as the beta 
 version of v5.0, have the fix. 

 It's a brand new download and install of WeeWx using wget - would that 
 have grabbed the most recent version?

 I'm not sure how to find the version info.

OK, I had already upgraded to v5 - so I just switched to a second inovato

I'll install V4.10.2, run it, and post a good log.

It will take just a few minutes ...

Let's stick with V4.10.2.

If you're not getting any graphs, the first thing you need to do is show us
the log. See the Wiki article *Help! Posting to weewx-user

to get a good log.

Re: [weewx-user] Belchertown weekly graph

[Lorin Tremblay]

Well I commented out in skin.conf of the highchart

# Highcharts week json data
#[[[WeekJSON]]]
#template = json/week.json.tmpl

# Highcharts year json data
#[[[YearJSON]]]
#template = json/year.json.tmpl
 And my weekly now works!


Thanks for all the inputs, really appreciated!

[weewx-user] Getting no chart or graph - just the looped data

[kd4e]

I'm setting up WeeWx on an inovato Quadra with an Acu-Rite weather station 
(label says Model 01536 but lsusb says Chaney Instrument Model 01036 
weather sensor).

I'm getting no chart or graph - just the looped data.

@Tom Keefer the current version of WeeWX, v4.10.2, as well as the beta 
version of v5.0, have the fix. 

It's a brand new download and install of WeeWx using wget - would that have 
grabbed the most recent version?

I'm not sure how to find the version info.

I'm getting no chart or graph - just the looped data - I think I followed a

I'll copy this to a new thread.

 Anyhow, I'm getting looped data and no chart or graph.

 Where would I find the development version of genplot.py - I don't seem 
 to be able to locate it in the installed files.

 Thanks!

Re: [weewx-user] WUnderground test

[gjr80]

Hmm, let me throw a question back at you. Why store dayRain in the database?

The restx uploaders will use dayRain if available in the current archive 
record otherwise they will manually calculate the value (dayRain does not 
need to be saved to database for it to be available in the current archive 
record). Today's rainfall (or for that matter any days rainfall) can be 
displayed in a report using a tag based on the rain field, again no need 
for historical dayRain. By all means have your driver pass dayRain through, 
it will save a few milliseconds or less each restx upload, but I don't see 
much other use for historical dayRain data.

Ok thanks for the insight, Highchart is overwriting my week.json, but not 
my other, day.json, month.json or year.json…. Now the question is why?


Simple, the weewx-highcharts extensions produces two json files; week.json
 and year.json, it does not produce day.json or month.json. So that is why 
the Belchertown day.json and month.json are not overwritten. As for why 
year.json is not overwritten, it could be for a number of reasons. Have you 
disabled generation of weewx-highcharts year.json? Is it being written to 
another directory? By default weewx-highcharts places week.json and 
year.json in /home/weewx/public_html/json or /var/www/html/weewx/json depending 
on your WeeWX install type. I thought these would be safe, but perhaps not.

The answers will be in your config files. You have a few choices; either 
disable the Belchertown skin or weewx-highcharts or change the location of 
the generated Belchertown or weewx-highcharts output. You could also change 
the names of the weewx-highcharts generated json files, but I do not 
recommend this as it would entail editing some of the weewx-highcharts 
javascript.

kd4e, I'm not sure why you put your post under this thread. Are you getting
this error? If so, the current version of WeeWX, v4.10.2, as well as the
beta version of v5.0, have the fix.

If this is not your problem, you should really start a new thread.

I'm not sure why you need genplot.py, but you will find it at

OK, after a dumb pill, or two, I renamed the existing genplot.py then got 
the linked genplot.py and copied it to /usr/share/weewx/weeplot/ then ran 
"sudo weewxd"

No joy - same loop.

Do I need to rerun "wee_config --reconfigure" or anything for it to take 
effect, please?

I'm just setting up WeeWx on an inovato Quadra with an Acu-Rite weather 
station (label says Model 01536
 but lsusb says Chaney Instrument Model 01036 weather sensor).

Anyhow, I'm getting looped data and no chart or graph.

Where would I find the development version of genplot.py - I don't seem to 
be able to locate it in the installed files.

Thanks!

 This is a known problem caused by a change in Pillow, the imaging

 If you're on a Mac, you probably installed Pillow using pip. See 
 what version of Pillow you have by using these two methods.

 *python3 -m pip list -v*

 *python3 -c "import PIL;print(PIL.__version__)"*


 If it's 10.0, then this is the problem. The solution is to 
 downgrade your copy:

 *python3 -m pip install Pillow==9.5.0*


 If it's earlier than 10.0, then it's some other problem.

Re: [weewx-user] Belchertown weekly graph

[jterr...@gmail.com]

Lorin,

According to your "week" configuration, Belchertown should normally create 
a json file named week.json. 
(http://www.gestionlgt.com/Chalet/json/week.json).

Your problem seems to be due to the fact that another template is 
overwriting  the week.json file, and that the format of this json file is 
not recognized bat the Belchertown javascript :

Here the beginning of your current week.json file :
[{
"_version": "*week.json.tmpl version 0.3.2*",
"utcoffset": -240.0,
"timespan": {
"start": 169544160.0,
"stop": 169609860
},
"temperatureplot": {
"series":
{
"outTemp": {
"name": "Temperature",
"data": [[169544190.0, 8.4], [169544220.0, 8.3]
..L


If you look for example  at your day.json, the beginning of the file is :

{
"belchertown_version": "1.3.1",
"generated_timestamp": "09/30/2023 14:35:22",
"colors": "#7cb5ec, #b2df8a, #f7a35c, #8c6bb1, #dd3497, #e4d354, 
#268bd2, #f45b5b, #6a3d9a, #33a02c",
"chartgroup_title": "Today",
"tooltip_date_format": "LLL",
"credits": "highcharts_default",
"credits_url": "highcharts_default",
"credits_position": "highcharts_default",
"chart1": {
"series": {
"outTemp": {
"obsType": "outTemp",
"yAxis_label": "Outside Temperature (\u00b0C)",
"polar": "false",
"zIndex": 1.0,
"name": "Outside Temperature",
..

and the day.json is recognized and daily charts are generated.

Re: [weewx-user] Belchertown weekly graph

[Lorin Tremblay]

Found out that I was creating the issue by running it myself, but the weewx run 
as root so that problem doesn't occurs when it runs by itself

So the problem is really specific to only the week graph, every other thing 
work flawlessly other than the week repport.

http://www.gestionlgt.com/Chalet/

Running all the latest version of Weewx for raspberry PI ans belchertown skin

So back to thinking the problem is in the preference of the week graph section….

[week]
# Chart Timespan Defaults
title = "This Week"
show_button = true
button_text = "Week"
time_length = 604800 # Last 7 days
tooltip_date_format = ""
aggregate_type = max
aggregate_interval = 3600 # 1 hour
gapsize = 3600 # 1 hour in seconds

Or in the belchertown skin

Re: [weewx-user] Belchertown weekly graph

[vince]

The log file pretty clearly says which file it can't write to.  So you need 
to fix the permissions on that file.  Pretty simple.

Without any details on your setup it's hard to say more than that, other 
than if you're doing unusual things like writing across the network to a 
filesystem mounted on another computer or NAS, the possibilities of what's 
perhaps wrong grow a lot.

Do other skins work ok ?
