| Just did a little more digging. The user is now weewx, with its home directory as /var/lib/weex. You need to put the SSH keys for your rsync server in a subdirectory .ssh under that.
Took me a while to find that!

I think I had this problem when I updated to v5. IIRC, the weewx user has changed, and I needed to put the SSH keys into the home directory for that user.

I failed to include it in my snippet. Here is the entire, non-edited RSYNC section in my weewx.conf:
[[RSYNC]]

skin = Rsync

# The server should appear in your .ssh/config file.

enable = true
server = www
user = weewx
path = /var/www/htdocs/wx

#HTML_ROOT = /var/www/html/weewx
# Rsync can be configured to remove files from the remote server if

delete = 0

Unless I missed it, I see nothing rsync related in your logfile snippet.
For starters, I think you need "skin = Rsync" in your [[RSYNC]] section. If you edited weewx.conf be sure to restart weewx afterward so it takes effect.
Also add "log_failure = true" and "log_success = true" to your RSYNC section at least temporarily to have it tell you what it's doing (or not). On Thursday, May 23, 2024 at 7:08:24 PM UTC-7 Chris Eidem wrote:
I'm assuming the
[[RSYNC]] section behaves like ssh normally would - the "server"
line in the RSYNC section is contacting the host "www" as
listed in the .ssh/config below it. I can connect to the remote
server with a 'sudo -u weewx /usr/bin/bash -i' and then
'ssh www'

Is the

Assuming
it's actually set to the true host...
I know
you did not see anything in the log, but it would still be
useful to see it. Set debug=1, restart weewxd, let it run
through the first reporting cycle, then post the log.

I'm
not getting reports sent to my web site on another machine.
rsync was working before upgrading to weewx 5, but now I can't
seem to figure out why nothing is getting sent. I have the
public and private keys along with the config file in the new
home dir (/var/lib/weewx/.ssh) and if I do a sudo -u weewx
/usr/bin/bash -i to get a shell, I can connect without a
password and get a remote shell on the web server.
[[RSYNC]] section:
enable = true
server = www
user = weewx
path = /var/www/htdocs/wx
/var/lib/weewx/.ssh/config:
Host www
Hostname wx.example.com
User weewx
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/weewx
StrictHostKeyChecking no
How would I go about troubleshooting this? I don't see
anything in the journal stating any connection issues and
again, I can connect to the remote service passwordlessly
(is that a word?).
Thank you for any hints,
Chris
