Woohoo! I am now at least uploading to WeatherUnderground successfully with my station.
This was one of my goals for sure. WeeWX is running, according to the logs, and according to my data now showing up online. However, when I go to localhost/weewx/ the webpage still hasn't updated from when I initially started messing with this (back on 7/1). SO, it appears the driver works for the BYOWS, but my full install is not working yet. I'm off to troubleshoot this new issue. Thank you so much for writing the installer!
