ok, after your post Andrew i decided to uninstall weewx then reinstall using
the apt-get command, this time around as you said it should i was asked for my
location and altitude.
i then used: sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog
which gave me this:
May 2 11:52:07 raspberrypi weewx[1345]: engine: Usin
the easiest way to install weewx is to follow the apt-get Debian install
instructions which, if followed correctly, will ask you for station type
(select simulator) and altitude etc and make the initial edits to
weewx.conf for you.
You can still use wee_config though to edit the .conf for you

Hi Andrew,
Thanks for the reply and your patience!
My brother-in-law bought a raspberry pi and hooked it up to a weather station a
couple of years back with no linux experience so guessed it would be easy
enough for me to do, he is clearly smarter than me! :-)
So, looking in the weewx.conf fil
OK it looks as though weewx is not starting.
can you attach your weewx.conf to the forum. I suspect your altitude has
been wrongly specified in weewx.conf
it should be in the format
altitude = 108, meter
or
altitude = 108, foot
note the comma and that the units are in the singular (not meters
Hi Vince,
here is what i get when i run the weewx.service status command:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo systemctl status weewx.service
● weewx.service - LSB: weewx weather system
Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/weewx; generated; vendor preset: enabled)

Unless you specifically want your RPi to be a DHCP server for WiFI devices,
I suggest that you stop the 'dhcpcd' service.
The commands:
sudo systemctl stop dhcpcd
sudo systemctl disable dhcpcd
should do the trick. (The first stops the service running if it is, and the
second stops is automatica

Lets try this:
- sudo sys
OK -
1. try and run directly, not as a daemon
2. try and edit weewx.conf using nano rather than vi
what happens??

hi Andrew,
i started weewx using: sudo /etc/init.d/weewx start
i've searched the syslog file for any instances of weewx but comes up with
nothing
iàve searched the system and no weewx.log exists
to view thw log i use: sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog
hope this helps a little

Ok,
a couple things ... your syslog is chucking a bunch of DHCP messages
check ifconfig -all and see if you actually have an IP address
next do
ps -ef|grep weewx
see if you are running weewx at all
if you are using
sudo vi /etc/weewx/weewx.conf and cannot open the file to write something
more
a silly question - how do you know it is actually running?? how did you
start it??
there should be at least weewx startup log messages
are you sure the messages are not being diverted to weewx.log??
what command did you use to view the log??
