[weewx-user] How to upgrade using a NEW Raspeberry Pi ?

Hi, I have an old version of weewx : 3.9.2 and I want to upgrade and in the same time change the hardware by something more recent (rpi 4b), with a new version of Python... Is there somewhere a "step by step" manual or indications to be able to do that? I follow instructions in the documentat

You asked the same question on Sept-12 and Sept-25th and several people tried to help you both times. On Sept-12 Tom pointed you to the Upgrade Guide (link) which has the procedure. On Tuesday, September 27, 2022 at 8:55:

Re: [weewx-user] Max/min Daily/Monthly/Yearly sum

Thank you for explaining, I've found these things in the docs, but was wondering if there is already a solution not only for days but also moths and years. For the driest days/months/years it won't work in a reasonable way without excluding the current week/month/year. Regarding the maxsumtime,

Re: [weewx-user] import from WU returns only 1 row from actual date

Maybe WU only allows downloads from the last or earlier completed day(s) (of the user's time zone) via the API with wee_import (or any other download 'tool') ... That would explain this behaviour. Anyone has any information of some such restriction ? Am 27.09.2022 um 14:38 schrieb 'Sebastian E

[weewx-user] Linux Friendly Hardware

Hi! My daughter is interested in setting up a weather station. Thought it would be fun to turn this into a citizen science project for her. Looks like WeeWX is exactly what I was looking for - but I'm a bit confused about the supported hardware. The hardware list doesn't show supported operati

Re: [weewx-user] Linux Friendly Hardware

I have been using a pair of Davis Vantage Pro2 stations with WeeWx, one with Linux (Raspberry Pi) and the other with FreeBSD (Dell Server). No issues! Marius -- Marius Schamschula > On Sep 27, 2022, at 4:01 PM, William Blankenship > wrote: > > Hi! > > My daughter is interested in setting

Re: [weewx-user] Linux Friendly Hardware

Weewx runs in Python and does not depend on an operating system. Any operating system that supports python can theoretically run weewx. (not sure how the attempt to port weewx to python on windows is coming along) I have personally run weewx on any possible flavor of linux and FreeBSD. I know

Hi Vince, Yes but it is not working for me. This is not just an upgrade, I've replaced the Raspberry PI by a new version (4b) and a new distribution of Debian, including a fresh install of Python. When I try to upgrade, it ask me like it was a new install, and do not consider my "weewx.conf"

Re: [weewx-user] Linux Friendly Hardware

Thanks for the fast response y'all! Appreciate it. Excited to dig in on the project! Thanks for confirming the Davis Vantage Pro2 works on Linux and FreeBSD Marius! Those are the two "always on" server OSs in my house too, both are candidates for plugging the station into. Good to know they're

In the absence of you providing any data of what you did and what you saw, I have no idea. On Tuesday, September 27, 2022 at 2:29:35 PM UTC-7 Yves Martin wrote: > Hi Vince, > > Yes but it is not working for me. > > This is not just an upgrade, I've replaced the Raspberry PI by a new > version (

Re: [weewx-user] Re: How to upgrade using a NEW Raspeberry Pi ?

The Rpi4B has nothing to do with it (ca n'en a rien à voir - rien du tout !) Just do the following things: 1. save your old .../skins/Seasons directory and its content 2. save your old weewx.conf 3. save your old weewx.sdb e.g. on a USB stick 4. now do a complete new install on the new RPi (doesn

Re: [weewx-user] Linux Friendly Hardware

William, The only thing that you need to know regarding WeeWx on FreeBSD, is that the rc script no longer works on boot. The bundled script uses a legacy format that is no longer fully supported. I haven’t had any luck writing my own. Any time I reboot the server, i.e. for OS updates, I manuall

[weewx-user] Re: import from WU returns only 1 row from actual date

Before I look into this I would like to understand exactly what it is you are doing and the results you are seeing. As I understand it: 1. you are running wee_import --import-config=/etc/weewx/import/wu-example.conf --no-prompt via cron on the hour and at 10,20,30,40 and 50 minutes past the hou
