Hello,

I am in the process of migrating from wview to weewx.  Yes I know I am very 
late to the game.

The issue I have with wview is that the Davis Vantage Pro 2 periodically 
generates a future date that then hangs any further data collection.  The 
fix usually involves:

 sudo service wview stop
 vpconfig /dev/ttyUSB0 cleararchive
remove the bad data from the sqlite and mysql databases
 sudo service wview start

Then if I am late to catch this issue, I have a lot of missing data.

I plan to start installing weewx in the next few days on a raspberry pi 5 
with a 1TB NVMe and run using the mysql (mariadb) database choice after 
migrating my existing database to the new setup.

Assuming that the date issue is a Davis glitch and not wview, is there a 
software check in weewx to determine if the date is wrong and either delete 
the data for that time or correct it to the correct time and then log?  I 
assume that the clear archive would also have to be automatically performed 
(how is that done by software)

PS: I have tried the usual shutdown the Davis, remove batteries and still 
the bad date occasionally occurs.  The Davis is the wireless version 
purchased 2011.  Also, it must know when I am not around as the bad event 
occurs during my away times.

Stay healthy,
Pat
