tom, i think we missed this case. the function weeplot.utilities.get_font_handle deals with no font specified, but the path normalization in genplot.py does not do the right thing. it tries to normalize even when path is None. m -- You received this message because you are subscribed to

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Beta testers for v3.9.0 needed

this is because the cmon skin.conf does not specify any fonts the change to defaults.py did not include fonts - only strings as a workaround, add these to the cmon skin.conf: [ImageGenerator] top_label_font_path = /usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeMonoBold.ttf

Re: [weewx-user] Vantage through serial to Ethernet device and lost connections

Not completely following the scenario. If the vantage driver loses communication with the station, it will try up to max_retries time, then the program *starts over* from the top. It does not exit, so it is never in an "exiting state." It should keep trying forever. As always, it is helpful to

Hello, Sef Take a look under [ImageGenerator] in the skin.conf configuration file for your 'BigReport', and make sure there are entries for top_label_font_path bottom_label_font_path unit_label_font_path axis_label_font_path rose_label_font_path -tk On Tue, Feb 5, 2019 at 4:04 PM Sef

Thanks all for the info! I have a few more things I need to feel more comfortable with in basic configuration, but I'll look at all of the links and info provided. Struggled with getting cmon in my exfoliation skin for days only to find out that the instructions say to use cmon_binding when it

Hi, weewx users. I have just upgraded my weewx weatherstation, from weewx 3.8.2 to the latest version 3.9.0. I have done this with the apt-get update and upgrade tool The weatherstation starts again in 3.9.0, new graphs are being produced, but after a few minutes, I can see this error

Hi, I have a Redhat system set up with two different Vantage Pro 2 systems going. These are using the Weatherlink Serial devices that I run through either a Wiznet SR110 serial to ethernet or a StarTech serial over IP. They both work fine, I have no issues running two instances of weewx. My

Indeed! That looks better, the menu is now populated and working. It appears that removing the "search_list_extensions = user.forecast.ForecastVariables" entry has made all the difference. That line is still in the copy I have here but I don't have the forecast extension installed so it had

Find it in the usual place . Be sure to read the Upgrading Guide . If you chose the unit system your reports will be in by selecting US or METRIC during installation of your old skin, you will have no problems. This includes most

Re: [weewx-user] Is more than one station_type possible in a single instance of WeeWX?

For a while, I was running two instances of weewx on a machine with the same installation, but separate trees for the db_archive, output web files, skins, and separate config files. I didn't have any problem with it, just changed hardware and needed to move the one close to the console (VP2 in

Re: [weewx-user] Re: NOAA reports not available

Glenn, *I've got it!!!* I checked the original skin.conf under 3.8.2 and noticed that "search_list_extensions = user.forecast.ForecastVariables" didn't exist under [CheetahGenerator]. I commented it out in mine and the summaries worked from drop down lists. I'll have to go back and figure out

Re: [weewx-user] Re: NOAA reports not available

To get the entries for the dropdown list, the report generator does not scan the NOAA subdirectory. Instead, it watches what goes by in the [[SummaryByMonth]] and [[SummaryByYear]] sections, then saves that result. So, for the dropdown list to populate properly, the [[SummaryByMonth]] and

Re: [weewx-user] Re: NOAA reports not available

Glenn, Had a thought that might not mean anything but here it goes. The page is not finding the summaries in /NOAA because I am unable to select a month or year. The box fails to display a drop down list of months or years from which I would select. It seems that it's the actual drop down list

the OutOfSpan failure killed the report thread, and that brought down weewx. imho this is a bug - weewx should continue to collect data, even if the report thread cannot do its job. however, tom and gary know the accumulator code better than i do, so they could say whether OutOfSpan should
