Yes; I used the weewx config program and the configuration file is updated 
fine.

I found another post about this problem and made this edit to vantage.py -  
adjusting "for_loopPacket in self.genDavisLoopPackets(200)" from 200 to 2.  
I did that and it all started working now.

Did you edit /etc/weewx/weewx.conf as that is the file that has the 
information about your station name etc?
