See the "fileparse " driver in the examples folder. It acts as a driver, except it reads from a file. Or, "filepile ". It acts as a WeeWX service that augments the data stream. On Thu, Jun 6,

I've been running Weewx on a Pi for several years, and want to upgrade both Raspbian and Weewx, but keep the stored weather data which is archived on Wunderground. I've checked the conversations, but can't find anyone who has done this, or even if it's possible. Curently on Debian 8 (Jessie) and

Hi all, First let me say today we remember those lost on D-Day. I can't seem to run any of the utilities like wee_config or wee_extension. When I look in /usr/share/weewx I don't see any of them. This is what I get when I try to run a utility. duane@weewx:/usr/share/weewx$ wee-extension --help

I recommend you leave your existing station alone and buy a new Raspberry PI, install everything on the new one and then use the old one for something else. It's not that expensive and it will allow you to mess around with the new system while leaving the old one operational. On Thu, Jun 6, 2024 a

1. Did you read the Upgrade Guide ? 2. If you are running the SFTP extension as a report (the normal state of affairs), it is not necessary to use the reports timing feature. All you have to do is make sure it runs after all the other report

Thanks for your reply. I upgraded a while ago and can't remember if I read the guide. I think I did. I'll take a look at it now. I'm not going to edit now that I looked. [image: Screenshot 2024-06-06 200711.png] Ah, that makes sense now. I certainly missed this or wasn't paying attention to it w
