2022-04-19 Thread gjr80
I'm presently working on adding support for the GW2000/WS90 to the GW1000 driver. Unfortunately the current release (1.6.4) of the Ecowitt gateway API documentation has a number of errors relating to the GW2000/WS90. Whilst I have been able to work around most of these errors, I am uncertain if

Looks like a clear case of corrupt station memory, not unusual in a vantage station after a power loss. See the wiki article WeeWX generates HTML pages, but it does not update them

I have been using weewx 4.5.1 more or less continuously since late 2019, running on a Pi zero. I have had occasional problems, but they always seem to be resolved by a restart or a system reboot. There was a power outage yesterday that shut down the power for several hours. After the power came

Yeah, I can't figure out why WU updates every few seconds, but PWS waits for the archive every 30 mins. If the PWS update is specifically tied to the hardware archive interval then that makes sense. I guess I didn't notice what the hardware might have been set to when PWS was updating more freq

It's also related to python2. I installed 4.7 and most of the python3 components on Centos7 forced installed the rpm for EL8. Works good, and of course the config crashes if you use python2, but works with python3. i will be building out a EL8 box soon. On Tuesday, April 19, 2022 at 2:38:2

You are going to need to post your weewx.conf, but the error says the archive interval is 129, which is apparently not a supported value. Change that to 300 (for 5 minutes) and see what transpires. Follow this link on how to post a help request: https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/Help!-Posting-
