[weewx-user] Upgrade won't start

2016-07-27 Thread lonehighway
I've never had this happen before. Trying to upgrade from 3.2.1 to 3.5.0 and I did what I've always done, download the file, unpack it, cd into it, then sudo ./setup-py build, sudo ./setup.py install. Everything looks normal but when I use /etc/init.d/weewx start nothing at all happens. Using t

Slightly Off topic, but I'll throw this hat in the ring and hope it doesn't come back too fast! As the title suggests, it's about locking up the SDcard as a read only filesystem, then adding weewx to utilize those same features. It works for me, it should work for others but given the variation

I am not an apache expert either, but from what I can tell, the problem is that the weewx Debian installs sets HTML_ROOT incorrectly. It's being set to /var/www, when it should be /var/www/html. Because of this, the HTML files are being put in a directory that is not accessible to the Apache serve

Vince, thank you for clearing this out. I think your great explanation deserves to be included in the documentation. Right now it feels like everything should work out of the box, which is clearly not the case. --- Влад Рафеев http://dandaka.com/ On Wed, Jul 27, 2016 at 7:13 PM, vince wrote: >

The alternate solution is for you to edit weewx.conf to have it save its files in the place the webserver expects things. The underlying issues are: - there are lots of webservers to pick from, they pick different locations for document root - operating systems differ in where they set

I know the sensors were working because I could see wind, temp, etc. changing over time. I did end up clearing the memory and it has been stable for the past hour or so. I'm wondering if it was trying to read memory and saw old values.not sure at this point. On Wednesday, July 27, 2016 at

The simple answer is to do what Vince said - put a symbolic link in the apache root. Looking at other instructions, out of curiosity - from the quick start guide: After about 5 minutes, open the station web page in a web browser. You should see your station information and data. *file:///var

You're probably right in that it looks as though the guide assumes apache2 is installed first, before the deb install - although there then appear to be some linguistic issues with present tense used when maybe it should be future!! I don't use apache2 either - preferring lighttpd on my rpi. On

It is either : a) you not understanding how to make apache serve web pages that are not immediately in the apache2 root tree or b) you not configuring weewx to make the pages within the apache tree weewx is set up to create the pages in weewx/public_html and then ftp them top a web server host
