You're probably overthinking this one a bit... That said, In the absence of what error messages you are seeing, we can't really help too much. http://weewx.com/docs/debian.htm has the instructions for how to add weewx using the pre-packaged version. If it's a newly build raspi, you probably want to do this. Just follow the instructions on the web page. But to answer - your pi doesn't magically know where to download weewx from. You have to run the first command under 'configure apt' to add the location of the weewx software repository to the built-in list of the sites (plural) where your pi will try to install software from. Then do the install steps. It works. Really. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
