IThanks vince, t's the /dev/ttyUSB0 so I edited my weewx config to
/dev/ttyUSB0 :
If the connection type is serial, a port must be specified:
# Debian, Ubuntu, Redhat, Fedora, and SuSE:
# /dev/ttyUSB0 is a common USB port name
# /dev/ttyS0 is a common serial port name
# BSD:
# /dev/cuaU0 is a common serial port name
port = /dev/ttyUSB0
- And restarted then looked at log . Still wont run weewx .Log says it
can't open vantage console: At least now weewx is attempting to run .
