With WeeWX version 2.5 (released 2013), the name of the WMR section was changed from WMR-USB to WMR100. Normally, setup.py takes care of the name change, but in your case, you already have a WMR100 section, so setup.py doesn't know which one is correct and aborted.
Go into weewx.conf and figure one which one is correct. My guess is the WMR100 section is correct. Then delete (or comment out) the other section (probably WMR-USB). This means you start with something like this: . . . [WMR-USB] option1 = value option2 = value [WMR100] some_other_option = value . . . and end up with . . . # [WMR-USB] # option1 = value # option2 = value [WMR100] some_other_option = value . . . I don't remember what actual options are used in these sections. That's why I've used the generic names "option1", "option2", etc. If this is all too much for you, you can email me your weewx.conf file and I'll do the corrections. After draining your bank account, of course. :-) -tk On Fri, Jan 17, 2020 at 8:01 AM Xerxes Shelley <theac...@gmail.com> wrote: > morning world! > > wondering if anyone knows why i get the error in the picture? again any > help would be appreciated. > > On Wednesday, January 15, 2020 at 1:49:20 PM UTC-8, Xerxes Shelley wrote: >> >> Hi, i'm doing this as a hobby.
