Sorry to be back late to my thread. It’s Raspian Desktop (recent) and fully updated.
When I start WeeWx manually, this is the log at startup: > pi@NUC62:/home/weewx $ sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog | grep weewx > Aug 26 21:19:48 NUC62 weewx[21100] INFO __main__: Initializing weewx version > 4.1.1 > Aug 26 21:19:48 NUC62 weewx[21100] INFO __main__: Using Python 3.5.3 > (default, Jul 9 2020, 13:00:10) #012[GCC 6.3.0 20170516] > Aug 26 21:19:48 NUC62 weewx[21100] INFO __main__: Platform > Linux-4.9.0-13-amd64-x86_64-with-debian-9.13 > Aug 26 21:19:48 NUC62 weewx[21100] INFO __main__: Locale is 'en_US.UTF-8' > Aug 26 21:19:48 NUC62 weewx[21100] INFO __main__: Using configuration file > weewx.conf > Aug 26 21:19:48 NUC62 weewx[21100] INFO __main__: Debug is 1 > pi@NUC62:/home/weewx $ python -V > Python 3.7.9 I know this isn’t the place for Python questions but I’m at my limits here; how do I change the default python? > On 25 Aug, 2020, at 21:40, John Kline <j...@johnkline.com> wrote: > > Well, we know the error message is not erroneous. > > I assume it’s Debian (since it’ a NUC), and not Raspbian. > > Is it buster? > > /usr/bin/python3 is probably a symlink to /usr/bin/python3.5.
