Thank you Gary. I will rework everything. The reason why I think it has something to do with line breaks is the following: on my test system I didn't save the original weewx init script when I tried it the last time. So I also copied and pasted the init script from my production to the test system as described above. After that I was seeing the very same error, but with the origninal single instance init script. Copying the script, instead of pasting it's content into Notepad++ and saving it through WinSCP, solved the problem. A diff didn't show any differences (different line breaks are ignored), also the permissions were set correctly. I will try it all again and we'll see. gjr80 schrieb am Donnerstag, 4.
