Hi Chris, I guess you followed the documentation for installing on a Pi? http://www.weewx.com/docs/debian.htm
In that case first uninstall WeeWX {should keep configuration}: sudo apt remove weewx Also keep in mind that the WLL driver uses the Python *requests* library. Install it using: sudo apt install python3-requests Then re-install according to the page linked above. In the first section only run the command that's labeled "*For Debian10 and later, use python3*". Skip the following line for Python 2. Follow all other sections as usual. grua...@gmail.com schrieb am Samstag, 20.
