Since I detest systemd and friends, I wrote a perl script to run as a cron

The other thing... Do you have shell access on your hosting provider? You
could verify that between rsync runs, the files aren't
getting modified somehow. Failing that, stop weewx long enough to pull all
the files from your web host and check them against
your sources locally. Another option

Well...not exactly. I didn't look to see what weewx does with the empty

isn't nfs. Just straight using nfs, you soft link could link between your

Hi Again,
At one point setting up this solar panel monitor I thought I
wanted group_delta_time,
but weewx failed to start when I used it. I grepped through all the weewx
.py, .conf, and .tmpl files and it doesn't show up. Did it get dropped, or
is it new for v5? I ended up not needing it,
Noted, thanks.

So, from your hosting provider, you are getting two types of errors.
One for userID, the other for MaxStartups. The #27 and #28 are the number

At the end of the day, we're still back to debugging the interaction
between you and your web hosting service.
It is unlikely, but not impossible, that weewx contributes to the issue.
Debug logs are required, and maybe the logs
again from your hosting service.
As an alternative, do you have ano

Is there a relatively pain free way to include the hostname running the

I'm running ver. 4.10.2, using the basic Seasons skin.

So... short answer; start from scratch. I've got a handful of weewx
instances for various purposes, all on 4.10.2 or whatever the
