Hi, bin/user/schemas.py is a file that existed under weeWX 2.x but was removed in weeWX v3.0.0 (and onwards). I presume you edited setup.cfg to change the home directory? I am no expert on the setup.py installer, Tom and Matthew are better versed, but you haven't somehow ended up running the

I am trying to do something similar, upgrading from 2.01 to 3.8 using setup.py. After unpacking the tarball and editing the setup.cfg file the build goes ok but the install stops with this error: error: can't copy '/home/jen/weewx-3.8.0/bin/user/schemas.py': doesn't exist or not a regular file

Just discovered my Vantage Data Logger has ATTRS{idProduct}=="ea61", instead of "ea60" in the udev rules supplied with the .deb package. I'm using it with an Davis Envoy, instead of a Console. But I suppose the product ID should be set with the data logger itself. On Sunday, January 22, 2017

Yes, it was fairly uneventful. I installed with .deb package and went though the weewx.conf to make sure everything was correct. Now with the basic function working, I'll start to play with the new features like RapidFire and rsync. I'll also make sure the setup will survive a reboot. DS On

I'll report back when I finish the upgrade. Just ordered the Pi, RTC, etc. So it may take some time, depending on my schedule. Would it be better if I allow the database upgrade to finish before I connect the weather station (Vantage Pro 2 + Envoy) or it doesn't really matter? I didn't really

This will be a good test of the automatic upgrade. :-) Unless you are using an extension, or have done a searchlist extension, it should just work. Note that there is no longer a statistical summary file (stats.sdb). Instead, the daily summaries are now included inside the weewx.sdb file. So,

Hi, I'm planning on installing the latest weewx 3.6 on a new machine (Raspberry Pi). I've been running 2.0 on another machine for almost five years and would like to to keep my weewx.sdb. Will it work by simply coping the weewx.sdb from 2.0 to the 3.6 installation? Thanks, TDS -- You
