Curious why you are using a Wi-Fi dongle? RPI 3 has Wi-Fi built in.

I have a new power supply and wifi dongle on order...that might help! Thanks for the digging on the WD data - will have a look at that in the next day or so!

My post of about 2 hours ago was in an attempt to work out if your headless RPi was running weeWX but it seems that is down to a wifi/dongle issue. If weeWX is running OK then WU should be fine as should your generated pages - checking syslog will show you what weeWX is/is not doing. As an aside, I did a bit of digging on importing historical WD data. Should be relatively straightforward, have started adding to wee_import. Will let you know how it goes.

Hi, It appears that you are in the /home/pi directory and hence weewxd is looking for weewx.conf in /home/pi. Use the full path for weewx.conf ie: $ sudo weewxd /etc/weewx/weewx.conf Gary -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
