If you're python 3.7 on the raspi os, you are running an old debian-10 based system which although it's as patched up as it can be, it's not really current. I have an old pi running that os and my python3 is 3.7.3 FWIW. But the underlying problem is you likely didn't get something quite

This is true: you do not need a value for WEEWX_ROOT. The default value is the directory where weewx.conf is found. In fact, weewx.conf installed by V5 do not contain a value. On Fri, Mar 1, 2024 at 7:21 AM Remy Lavabre wrote: > Yes Tom, as I told Matthew in my previous post, I installed V5 in
