Discussed this with Matthew. Could you post the contents of a few things for us?
1. Contents of /usr/lib/systemd/system/weewx.service 2. Contents of /etc/default/weewx. 3. Does /etc/systemd/system/weewx.service exist? If so, what does it contain? 4. Contents of /usr/bin/weewxd 5. Contents of /etc/os-release Please note any changes you have made since the install.
