Funny you should bring this up now. I recently upgraded to WeeWX 2.6, and
my modified code no longer works. I was always able to adapt to each new
version, but the new codebase is quite different than the previous ones. I
have kind of given up on trying to adapt it to 2.6. Sorry.
Instead, I use a

Dear Rob
After moving to a different server i have been trying to get sftp to work
with weewx and never managed to get pysftp compiled, probably because my pi
is running Ubuntu 16. This I cannot change because my home automation is
running on the same pi3b - I would not like to mess with heating

Not a sftp user but the typical approach to fault finding ftp/sftp/rsync
generator issues is to see if you can connect to the remote server from the
command line, ie take WeeWX out of the equation. What happens if you do the
following from the command line:

I don't know anything about the sftp extension (it's not part of WeeWX),
but I would imagine you want to use either the extension, or the ftp that
comes with WeeWX, but not both.

Something to add to the above. The weewx-sftp extension is installed and
the weewx.conf looks like below. Is there some conflict here between sftp

Dear Mr or Ms Potamia, ;-)
I have code that I hacked into the standard Weewx base that implements proper
sftp. If you would like a copy I can send it to you. (And anyone else who’d
like a copy.) Just one modified file.

One pip quirk that consistently bites me over and over again, is trying to
use pip from the WeeWX home directory, /home/weewx. It appears that is what
you're trying to do.
The problem is the presence of the file setup.cfg. Pip sees it, and tries
to install in the directories it specifies, in this

Gary, yes, I did try to install pysftp via pip, it failed, and I went onto
other things. Will read more about this (including Matt's *readme*) and try

I think the weewx-sftp issue was the inability to install pysftp via pip. It
installed fine for me on raspbian Stretch last night though I needed to use
pip2 not pip. A bit of googling the OPs pip error message suggested pip may
need to be upgraded, wouldn’t be the first time that has come up.
Aha. "ReadMe". So that's what that's for. 😂 jk
I probably missed it. Thanks.

If you connect via the command line command "ftp", it will usually tell you

WeeWX supports FTPS, not SFTP. Two questions:
Which one does your server support?
If it supports FTPS, do you know what kind of FTP server it is? The PureFTP

OK, I fixed it. It was the version of paramiko that was messing things
up. If you are using a Pi with Raspbian 10 (Buster), you can't use the
default paramiko you get by default. You have to upgrade:
pip install --user --upgrade paramiko
The default is 2.6.0 and the above command ups it to 2

of a password. It meant, in sftp.py, changing all references of passwordto

Rob- thanks for the awesome work on your SFTP mod.
One issue the mod has is that it doesn't create directories on the remote
server if they don't exist. Easily fixed though. I'll upload my fix to
github, or email me off-list if you need it in the meantime.
