# install weewx the hard way because # the rpm signing key is not accepted # by modern fedora 39 sudo yum install -y wget wget http://weewx.com/downloads/released_versions/weewx-4.10.2-1.el8.noarch.rpm sudo yum localinstall weewx-4.10.2-1.el8.noarch.rpm # get weewx's six.py out of the way cd /usr/share/weewx/ sudo mv six.py six.py.keepme # set debug=1 and save the file sudo vi /etc/weewx/weewx.conf # make sure it's running simulator sudo wee_config --reconfigure # start it up interactively sudo weewxd On Saturday, November 11, 2023 at 2:29:10 AM UTC-8 bell...@gmail.com wrote: > Sorry I wasn't clear.
