Worth a try. I do like the "ls -l /dev | grep USB" command to better see what's what in /dev given that it looked like he has a USB keyboard and mouse plugged in. On Monday, February 3, 2025 at 12:14:41 PM UTC-8 Warren Gill wrote: > The system install should have put a udev rule in place. This

Re: [weewx-user] First Day with WeeWX Some Good, but...

The system install should have put a udev rule in place. This causes the kernel to create an alias to the device whenever it detects it plugging in (or at boot). Because if you have more than one serial device the envoy could get a different device name (ttyUSB1, ttyUSB3, etc.) every time it plugs

Re: [weewx-user] First Day with WeeWX Some Good, but...

ok - lets go back to the beginning. Is weewx getting data from your station and continuing to run other than these messages, or is it not ? In other words do we have something breaking it from working, or is this just an annoyance in the logging/reporting stuff ? If it's working - you 'cou

There have been a few other incidents of "Unknown hardware type 10". The solution seems to be to clear the logger. Try this procedure: weectl device --dump weectl device --clear-memory The "--dump" command will attempt to salvage any data on the logger. It will probably fail because of the "unk

Re: [weewx-user] First Day with WeeWX Some Good, but...

weewx is reporting permission error. it seems to be using /dev/ttyUSB0 ➔ check perms on that file: $ ls -l /dev/ttyUSB0 it will probably show group ‘dialout’ has read/write on it, so make sure user ‘weewx’ is in that group e.g. $ sudo adduser weewx dialout ⊣GE⊢ > On 3 Feb 2025, at 1:36 pm, v

Sure it could, try “lsusb” to list the usb devices found. You might need to preface it with sudo. Alternately unplug it, wait a couple seconds, plug it back in and run “sudo dmesg” to see kernel messages that usually have enough info to figure it out. On Sunday, February 2, 2025 at 4:01:50 PM
