[weewx-user] Re: weewx service won't start each time reboot

Um, that is not a RPi boot sequence. When I boot my RPi I get about 500 odd lines of syslog entries from kernel, systemd and many others and down towards the end the WeeWX startup lines I indicated. I suggest you reboot your RPi now: $ sudo reboot Take note of the time and then once your RPi

So you are saying that when you reboot your RPi, the very first line from WeeWX in syslog is: Aug 19 21:40:09 raspberrypi weewx[769]: engine: retrying... Gary On Monday, 20 August 2018 15:24:22 UTC+10, Charlie Huang wrote: > > Hi, > > I already checked the log in a txt editor. There is nothing

Ok, that is very interesting but you did not do either of the two things I asked. Issuing the tail command that you used once your Rpi has booted means that you are only seeing the log from that point on; you miss all of the RPi boot sequence as well as the WeeWX startup and in this case the

Hi, So what happens when you run WeeWX manually and provide the fill path to weewx.conf, ie $ sudo weewxd /etc/weewx/weewx.conf Does WeeWX start without error? What does the log say? Also, the log extract you provided does not appear to be complete, the first line indicates that WeeWX is

Could understand a permissions problems if copying from one machine to another if ownership and permissions are not identical. As for installing, wouldn't sudo apt-get install fonts-freefont-ttf do the trick. Can't remember having to do that when I installed raspbian sid on my RPi3. Gary --
