[weewx-user] Upgrade from 2.6.3 to 3.8.0 issues

2017-11-25 Thread gjr80
Sorry, that last sentence should read:

As an aside, the weeWX version number logged during startup is hard coded in 
the weeWX source and not necessarily the version read from weewx.conf, that 
being said I would expect weeWX 2.x to complain loudly if it was forced to use 
a weeWX 3.x config file.

[weewx-user] Upgrade from 2.6.3 to 3.8.0 issues

2017-11-24 Thread gjr80
Hi,

You are definitely still running 2.6.3 code, that error message is a 2.6.3 
error message that is no longer used. What type of weeWX install was 2.6.3, 
setup.py, .deb or .rpm? Also how did you upgrade to 3.8.0? Finally, what is the 
full path to the weeWX.conf you are looking at that says 3.8.0? As an aside, 
the weeWX version number logged during startup is hard coded in the weeWX 
source and not necessarily the version read from weewx, that being said I would 
expect weeWX 2.x to complain loudly if it was forced to use a weeWX 3.x config 
file.

[weewx-user] Upgrade from 2.6.3 to 3.8.0 issues

2017-11-24 Thread Tony F
Hi,
Finally broke down and updated my weewx running on a raspberry pi from old 
version 2.6.3 to 3.8.0
Looked like everything was working but then a few hours later it just 
stopped. I cannot get it to stay running.
Noticed that syslog says I am running version 2.6.3 ??? But when I look in 
weewx.conf it says 3.8.0.
I thought my serial interface was toast so I connected the VantageVue to a 
PC and it works just fine.
Since it could be my GPO ttl/rs232 interface on the Pi, I connected a USB 
to rs232 converter and changed
weewx.conf to use this.  Still wont stay up.  

Any help would be appreciated.  

Thanks,  TonyF
