[weewx-user] Re: Second Anemometer - Davis Vantage Pro2 Plus

[Rich Strle]

Hello Rory, were you able to add a second anemometer and have it show up in 
the generated pages as 'roof wind' or something like that? I would like to 
do that but haven't seen any examples.

The FTP process works perfectly. My issues were all self inflicted. Thanks 
for your help.

When I ran that report I didn't do it with sudo. When I run sudo weectl 
report run the error goes away. I'm starting weewx with:

sudo systemctl start weewx while I'm trouble shooting. Otherwise it runs as 
a damon.

Re: [weewx-user] FTP Not working

[Rich Strle]

I set debug=2 and restarted weewx. I looked through the log file and didn't 
see where the ftp report was running. Would the Ftp process how up in the 
log as started?

Grasping at straws I added the ftpgenerator to the skins.conf file. That 
didn't do anything productive.

I ran weectl report list and weectl report run. Logs are attached.

Thanks for your efforts.

Yes I can. I made a test directory and uploaded the files using ftp on the

[weewx-user] FTP Not working

[Rich Strle]

I have installed the latest version of weewx on a fresh RasberryPi and 
almost everything is working as expected.

I also have a different Pi running weewx 4.x. It's been running perfectly 
for years. I shut down weewx on that Pi. After everything is working, I can 
see the files getting created on the new 5.x Pi, in weewx.conf I turned on 
upload to WeatherUnderground and FTP to my GoDaddy hosted domain Strle.com. 
WeatherUnderground is getting through but the FTP to GoDaddy isn't.
the ftp section of the two Pi's are identical.
I set debug to 1, and restarted.
I used journalctl --since "2 hours ago" > \tmp\weewx.log to grab the log.
I looked through the log and didn't see anything related to FTP or FTP 
errors.
I reviewed the wiki and saw a section on additional logging but it looks 
like v4 code.

Hi Tom, it happens every time. Attached is a log of what happened when I 
turned off the Pi, restarted the Pi, shut down weewx, and restarted weewx. 

I running a fresh RasberryPi Debian install. Vantage Pro2 with a 
WeatherLinkIP attached to a  VantagePro2 console.

Attached is what happened with my most recent boot and the log file.

[weewx-user] updated to 5.0.1 still no joy

[Rich Strle]

I've been following the 5.0 issues. I have updated to 5.0.1 and done the 
usermod but I'm still having issues. RaspberryPi 3 B+ My Vantage Pro is 
connected via ethernet using the IP adaptor. I appreciate all the work 
that's gone into this free product.

[weewx-user] Raspberry Pi fresh install problems

[Rich Strle]

Hello, this is on a fresh Raspberry Pi 3 model B+ OS install. I'm following 
the instructions and I ran into problems. I found the NO_PUBKEY issue and 
updated it with:

wget -qO - https://weewx.com/keys-old.html | sudo gpg --dearmor --output 
/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/weewx.gpg
File '/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/weewx.gpg' exists. Overwrite? (y/N) y

No joy, when I do: sudo apt install weewx

I end up with: Unable to locate package weewx

I'm out of ideas.

I thought weatherlinklive-driver-weewx would be the 
best: https://github.com/Drealine/weatherlinklive-driver-weewx

There are so many drivers with similar names it's easy to go in circles 
looking.

I have upgraded to a Davis VantagePro2 (VP2) from a VantagePro1 (VP1).

I am trying to read my current data from weatherlink.com with the

the whew.conf file. I'm concerned about the hostname for sure. Does someone 
have a working version I could look at?

[weewx-user] 6100 Davis WeatherLink Live and 'stock' WeeWX

[Rich Strle]

Question: Will the ‘stock’ WeeWX driver communicate with the 6100 Davis 
WeatherLink Live?


Detail:


I have upgraded to a Davis VantagePro2 (VP2) from a VantagePro1 (VP1).


Currently I get data from the VP1 from a Davis Envoy product number 6314 
with a serial data logger installed.


To get the same functionality in my VP2 I need a new Davis Envoy product 
number 6316 Data Envoy and a new data logger 6510USB Davis WeatherLink 
Computer Interface.


Would I be better off with a 6100 Davis WeatherLink Live? It seems to offer 
more functionality like adding additional sensors including the Davis 
Airline air quality sensor.


In the Vantage Notes section:


“The Davis Vantage stations include a variety of models and configurations. 
The WeeWX driver can communicate with a console or envoy using serial, USB, 
or TCP/IP interface.”


Poking around in the drivers section of the wiki, I see a weatherlinklive 
weewx-driver. Is that my best option to feed data into weewx?


Or will the ‘stock’ WeeWX driver communicate with the 6100 Davis 
WeatherLink Live?


Apologies for the long drawn out question. My VP1 ran since 2001 and fed 
data to my website since then. A lot has changed since then.

Re: [weewx-user] Davis Envoy to Davis Weatherlink

[Rich Strle]

Thanks Tom and Greg! I'm going to make a new question about 6100 Davis 
WeatherLink Live as a better option perhaps than the Envoy and data logger.

Re: [weewx-user] Davis Envoy to Davis Weatherlink

[Rich Strle]

I see, I need to get a new 6316 Data Envoy and a new data logger 6510USB 
Davis WeatherLink Computer Interface in order to upgrade my weather station 
from a VP1 to a VP2.

Tom, you have a 6314 Data Envoy and the USB data logger connected to a 
raspberry pi running weewx, correct? I want to be able to tell my wife 
'well Tom said' when she questions this additional expense ; )

Re: [weewx-user] Davis Envoy to Davis Weatherlink

[Rich Strle]

Davis does not make it easy to discuss there products with their naming 
convention.

My wireless VP1 communicated with my VP1 console and the Davis Weather 
Envoy product number 6314. The Davis Weather Envoy was connected to my Pi 
via a serial to USB cable.

The VP2 is a wireless unit that connects to the new wireless WeatherLink 
Console that feeds their database.

Tom, what is the product number of your Envoy? I don't think my Envoy is 
talking to the new VP2.

[weewx-user] Davis Envoy to Davis Weatherlink

[Rich Strle]

I upgraded from a Davis Vantage Pro (since 2001!) to a Davis Vantage Pro 2. 
I've been using a serial Weather Envoy to connect to my Raspberry Pi to 
feed weewx and then feed my website. It's worked very well for a long time.

I understand I need a 6510USB Davis WeatherLink Computer Interface. Is that 
a direct, drop in replacement for the Envoy? I don't see where there is 
differentiation from Envoy to Weatherlink as far as weewx is concerned.

[weewx-user] Station in registry twice

[Rich Strle]

Hi, my station is in the registry twice. 

I had a hardware issue, reinstalled weeWX, put in the wrong url, changed it 
after a couple of days. The station is showing up correctly but the small 
image isn't.

I'm out of ideas ; )

Re: [weewx-user] Re: New internet provider - now ftp doesn't work

[Rich Strle]

Thank you Karen, Tom, and the others who tried to help. I think Karen could 
be on to something.

The t-mobile home internet router does not have an advanced interface and 
no bridge mode. The connection speed is slow at my location. The device is 
going back and I'm going to stick with my current provider.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: New internet provider - now ftp doesn't work

[Rich Strle]

No joy

I tried  reuse_ssl = True here:

# To upload files from something other than what HTML_ROOT is set
# to above, specify a different HTML_ROOT here.
#HTML_ROOT = /var/www/html/weewx

reuse_ssl = True

# Most FTP servers use port 21
port = 21

# Set to 1 to use passive mode, zero for active mode
passive = 1

And closer to the bottom of the FTP section.

I disconnected and reconnected. Does filezilla trust the site now so we're 
not seeing all of the connection comments?

Re: [weewx-user] Re: New internet provider - now ftp doesn't work

[Rich Strle]

I installed FileZilla and was able to use the same user name and password 
to upload files from /var/www/html/weewx/ to the same spot on my webserver. 
I did get an error message Hostname does not match certificate but I've 
gotten that before...

Re: [weewx-user] Re: New internet provider - now ftp doesn't work

[Rich Strle]

My bad, the ftp in whew still doesn't work. The Access Point only has an 
IPv6 number listed, it doesn't have an IPv4 number listed. My website 
provider only allows 1 sftp account at the root level and I was trying to 
avoid using that.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: New internet provider - now ftp doesn't work

[Rich Strle]

I did as instructed. Attached is the log file after I made the change. I 
have a call into my provider to see if they are IPV6.

[weewx-user] Re: New internet provider - now ftp doesn't work

[Rich Strle]

Thanks for your response David but that didn't fix my issue. 

It was set at 1. I stopped the weewx process, set the ftp to 0, restarted 
weewx and it did not help. I changed it back to 1.

[weewx-user] New internet provider - now ftp doesn't work

[Rich Strle]

I changed out my internet provider to t-mobile home internet service and 
now I'm getting ftp errors. I tried connecting to the ftp from another 
computer and that worked. When my raspberry pi tries to connect I get 
errors. This was working fine before I switched providers. Any ideas?

[weewx-user] Problem after power outage

[Rich Strle]

We lost power last night and now I'm not updating. The FTP part is working, 
my image is processing correctly and I see the timestamp change as it 
should.

I have reset my Davis Envoy but no joy. Ideas please?

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Copy webcam image to /var/www/html/weewx/image.jpg

[Rich Strle]

Thank you for all the suggestions. I need to take my linux-fu a lot.

Before I can move forward, I have a problem on my weather station Pi. On my 
'dev' Pi this wget command works as expected wget --user=user 
--password=user  http://192.168.254.33/jpg/image.jpg?size=3 
-O/home/pi/Pictures/image.jpg works as expected

When I run the same wget command on my weather station Pi I get an error 
message :schema Missing from wget. it makes the file but there isn't any 
data in the file. if I put the URL into a browser window I get the image I 
expect. 

if it matters, I am running WeeWX directly. I believe both Pi's have the 
same version of the operating system and I didn't change any permissions.

I'm out of ideas...

[weewx-user] Re: Copy webcam image to /var/www/html/weewx/image.jpg

[Rich Strle]

Thank you John. I have more questions. I'll try and be specific so the next 
person who wants to grab an image, resize it, and include it in the ftp 
process can go it easier.

Looking at my passwrd file I see: 
www-data:x:33:33:www-data:/var/www:/usr/sbin/nologin

Would I remove the /nologin?

Can you explain this please? "once that is done you can sudo su - www-data 
and add the cron entry."

My bigger question is, where did weewx set permissions for itself? Does 
that happen in the install process?

[weewx-user] Copy webcam image to /var/www/html/weewx/image.jpg

[Rich Strle]

My copy of weewx is running on a Raspberry Pi. I am trying to get an image 
from a webcam on my local network using wget, resizing the image using 
imagemagick, then put it in the /var/www/html/weewx/ folder so it will get 
uploaded to my web host.

wget --user=user --password=user  
http://192.168.254.33/jpg/image.jpg?size=3 -O/var/www/html/weewx/image.jpg

I get a Permission denied error.

>From there my plan was to use imagick to reduced the size of the file and 
include the image in the upload.

I as able to put this in a bash script and run a cron job to do this 
process to my /home/pi/Pictures/image.jpg folder but I can''t figure out 
how to copy the file to the html/weewx directory.

If there is a better way to do what I'm trying to accomplish I'm willing to 
try that.

Thanks in advance.

[weewx-user] Include image file in ftp?

[Rich Strle]

I have a jpg image captured from a webcam. 

The image is on the Pi that runs weewx. 

Can that image be included in the ftp upload process that weewx does to my 
webserver?
