You do not need to uninstall weewx first. Just follow the install instructions, but use the python3 version instead:
*wget -qO - https://weewx.com/apt/weewx- <https://weewx.com/apt/weewx->python3.list | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/weewx.list* *sudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install weewx* On Sat, Feb 20, 2021 at 3:42 AM Michael Schantl < michael.schantl...@gmail.com> wrote: > > 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.
