Hi Rainer
I did as you suggested and it seems to work now. gw1000.py was not there, so something went wrong during the installation.

A couple of questions:
1) I used sudo to install and WeeWX is running under root. Should I just use the user login(pi), to install WeeWx?
when you are acting as user pi, you need root rights - hence you use sudo .... installing weewx as any user, root or any other, hasn't been an issue so far (afaik)
2) Is the weewx.sdb compatible with Version 5?

I don't think the database type has changed (still either a sqlite3 database or a MySQL database, and the weewx.sdb is/was a sqlite3 database)
- and you will probably still use the wview_extended database schema
what does weewx show when you use your "old" weewx.sdb in /var/lib/weewx ?
if you can see you historical data, all is fine 😉

3) Should I use pip to install or sudo apt install ./python3-weewx_5...., as I did

as far as I know the general weewx install instructions are valid - you can use apt and pip as package managers, depending on installation type
see weewx documentation

Thanks for helping

    I think a simple solution could be to extract the file gw1000.py
    from the gw1000-0.5.0b5.tar.gz archive and copy it to
    /usr/share/weewx/user

    Hi Ian
    Thanks for looking.
    I used this command to install WeeWx:

    sudo apt install ./python3-weewx_5.0.0a24-a_all.deb


    and this command to install GW1000


    sudo weectl extension install

        How did you attempt the install? I am running version 5 with
        a pip installation. I am also running the Gateway driver and
        it installed seamlessly using weectl extension install [URL]

        Hi Vince
        I followed the installation guide for the driver, but the
        installation used the folder structure from WeeWx version 4.

                Is it possible to install the gateway with WeeWx 5.0
