Hi,
Welcome to the joys of troubleshooting a Cheetah template! The best Cheetah
errors to have are those that crash in your non-template python code as
that way you tend to get a meaningfull error trace, if the crash occurs in
the in-template python code they can be very hard (well tedious) to track
down. As you have no doubt found out the line number quoted in the error
trace is usesless, it refers to a temporary file we have no access to. The
best clue is the actual error message itself. in this case there is a
multiplication operation occuring that is using an integer and the value
None which gives the TypeError. What you need to do is carefully look at
each multiplication operation in the template (there are 33 but some can be
ruled out depending on your settings) and see if any of them could possibly
be using a variable that is None. You have what sounds like a unique setup,
I would look at what obs your setup is providing weewx and through omission
could any of the common obs be None? This could cause some variable in the
template to be None (which does not trigger the error) but later on that
variable is used in an equation that does trigger the error. As you can see
it can get complex. One technique I use is what I call the 'method of
halves':
1. make a backup of the template as this is destructive
2. open the template
3. delete the bottom half of the template
4. save the template
5. let weewx do a report cycle(no need to start/stop, just let weewx
continue to run, you could be here a while)
6. did the error go away?
- yes - the error is in the bottom half of the template, repeat but
this time only delete half of what you last deleted
- no - the error is the top half of the template, delete half of what is
left and repeat
As I said it can be tedious, also if you have a template with lots of
embedded python you need to be careful where you slice. Anyway I think you
should get the idea.
Assuming you track down the issue do let us know what the cause was, that
way we can harden the gauge-data.txt template.
Good luck
Gary
