[weewx-user] Re: Vantage Pro versus Vantage vue

Andrew, The main difference I see is about $200 US. :-) Actually I have a Vantage Pro2 running on my iMac that is used for my main weather station. When I purchased the Pro2, I wanted a another station console in my living room to monitor the station also. So I ordered a Vue console. It worked

[weewx-user] Vantage Pro versus Vantage vue

As a non-davis user, but thinking about splashing out the cash, does anyone have views or opinions on the benefits or disadvantages of the vue over the pro2 davis stations - for reliability and/or accuracy? The vue looks to me to be the better option - but maybe I am missing some important diff

Thanks so much for that helpful reply Matthew. I found the pylibpcap bindings here , but unfortunately I still get the same result. Tried rebooting for good measure, but no change. Tried uninstalling pypcap as well, but still no change in

[weewx-user] Re: Exceptions attribute error - Interceptor driver for Acurite bridge

douglas, this looks like a pcap library issue. i think there are two python bindings for pcap: pypcap and pylibpcap. apparently pylibpcap has the pcapObject, but pypcap does not. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2501138/module-object-has-no-attribute-pcapobject when i did the development

[weewx-user] Exceptions attribute error - Interceptor driver for Acurite bridge

Have installed weeWX on MacOS 10.11.6 and I think my install is correct. I'm able to launch with Simulator configured, but I get the following error when I try to run configured with Interceptor for an Acurite bridge. I also installed libcap as instructed. *From wee_debug* Using configura

[weewx-user] Re: Looking for a Weewx running script

Hello, Having you station on Internet could be an other root of yourr problem: hackers interfering/disrupting your connections. Most stations I know have little, if any, protection against hackers. So check your firewall. You can also install a spy, using wireshark for example, recording all in

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Looking for a Weewx running script

I'm still a little lost as to why your weather station is talking to weewx via the internet - can't you just give weewx an internal IP address for the weather station and not bother using dyndns. Just seen that this was discussed a year or so ago also - so will let the vp experts take over from

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Looking for a Weewx running script

then that is when we need the log. the log you posted weewx was still running. I guess eventually weewx probably hits the wait for x minutes before restarting situation - maybe that is what is happening - but weewx would log a message before shutting down. I do not believe the log you posted

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Looking for a Weewx running script

Hi Andrew, in case it would be run I should get this message when I try to start it: "already running" /etc/init.d/weewx start * Starting weewx weather system weewx * already running... ...done. What I am calling a crash and I run /etc/init.d/weewx start I am getting, see below, so Weewx

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Looking for a Weewx running script

I am sorry - this is NOT a crash. Weewx is sill running and is trying and trying to reach your station. If you look closely at your log you will see it is logging try #1, try #2, try #3, try #4 and so forth. This is not a crash - this is handling an error because it cannot communicate with th

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Looking for a Weewx running script

Dear Andrew, my Weewx is not running at this point, see the log file Right now it is running, If I try to start it I am getting: * Starting weewx weather system weewx * already running... ...done. which is right. But before it was not running and it was crahing. I am pretty sure the Dedic

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Looking for a Weewx running script

since you seem to be using a non-static ip connection which may not be known for 5 minutes (30 secs) to the weather station have you tried increasing the wait time to say 6 minutes (360 secs) in weewx.conf (currently set to 180 secs). I'm sure this is a question of tweeking the timeouts and re

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Looking for a Weewx running script

Thanks for your quick response. I have no fixed IP from my ISP, my DynDNS IP is checked and updated every 5 minutes I am running a Davice Vantage Pro with WeatherLink IP As attached file the log and my conf file Thanks again 2018-05-24 14:56 GMT+07:00 Andrew Milner : > Weewx does not crash wit

[weewx-user] Re: Looking for a Weewx running script

Weewx does not crash without a reason. Believe me - it doesn't. What does the log have to say around the time of the crashes. Fixing the cause of your crashes is the right way to go about fixing the problem rather than trying a sticky plaster approach with automated restarts. Automated resta
