This happened during system upgrade: apt update, apt upgrade. When you do this, you do *not* read the Upgrade notes of each package you are upgrading - and you don't have access to them, because it is supposed to run correctly. And it did not : it did not load my weewx.conf at all (that's in a previous post, but the issue is linked). Now, yes, the way I fixed it was wrong, and that's why I preferred to downgrade, read the upgrade notes, and upgrade when I get more information.
So, to clarify things: - No, it's not your fault, I'm not trying to blame anyone here, especially that you do a wonderful work - It *was* a horror upgrade *for me* On Sunday, March 3, 2024 at 5:10:37 PM UTC+1 Tom Keffer wrote: > From what I see in the log, the upgrade ran perfectly.
