Re: [weewx-user] How to change weewx service from python2 to python3 on Debian

Hi Vince, Your advice worked! I already had the python3 version of paho-mqtt installed and all that I had to do to get it to work was to reinstall the mqtt extension with "sudo wee_extension --install weewx-mqtt.zip" and everything was fixed. Previously, I didn't think that I needed to

Re: [weewx-user] How to change weewx service from python2 to python3 on Debian

Thanks Vince for pointing out the problem! I removed the Weather34 skin and the errors stopped. However, I am now getting a very similar error but for my mqtt extension. The command "systemctl status weewx" is now generating the following error dialog: ● weewx.service - LSB: weewx weather

Re: [weewx-user] How to change weewx service from python2 to python3 on Debian

In my previous post I thought that it would be better to send the errors via an image, however, I am not sure that was the best way. In any event, here are the errors from the output of "systemctl status weewx": root@zeebytes:/etc/weewx# systemctl status weewx ● weewx.service - LSB: weewx

Re: [weewx-user] How to change weewx service from python2 to python3 on Debian

Any time you see that error, you are running python2 code that has not been updated to python3. You need to update your weather34 software to a python3-compliant version. On Wednesday, January 27, 2021 at 11:44:40 AM UTC-8 gldic...@gmail.com wrote: > Thanks to Tom, Rainer and Colin for your

Re: [weewx-user] How to change weewx service from python2 to python3 on Debian

Re: [weewx-user] How to change weewx service from python2 to python3 on Debian

Easiest is to just follow the install directions in the Debian guide : *wget -qO - https://weewx.com/apt/weewx-python3.list | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/weewx.listsudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install

[weewx-user] How to change weewx service from python2 to python3 on Debian

How do I make weewx use python3 instead of python2? I initially installed weewx on Debian using the Debian package over a year ago and it was originally setup to use python2. I recently upgraded to weewx 4.3.0 with the Belchertown skin version 1.2 and so I want to also upgrade to python3.
