Hello, and thank you so much to all of you that work on the software and participate in this forum. I've been using weewx for a while now, and I hope to be able to contribute to the community going forward.
I am trying to write to a mariadb instance on my network. I have several other self-hosted apps on my network that write to the database, and there are absolutely no network / port restrictions on the db. Maybe its just me, but the instructions <https://weewx.com/docs/5.0/usersguide/mysql-mariadb/#2-change-the-weewx-configuration-to-use-mysql> are a little murky. I am not sure that I have the config right. I can connect to the db with the user and password, so I don't think that is the issue. Here are some snippets from my config. [Databases] # A SQLite database is simply a single file. [[archive_sqlite]] database_name = weewx.sdb database_type = SQLite # MySQL [[archive_mysql]] database_name = weewx database_type = MySQL [[MySQL]] driver = weedb.mysql # The host where the database is located. host = 192.168.1.100 port = 3306 # The user name for logging in to the host. user = weewx # Use quotes around the password to guard against parsing errors. password = "weewx" *Note: I tried appending the port to the end of "host" - same error.* here is the error: admin@WeatherPi:~ $ sudo journalctl -u weewx -f Jan 08 08:47:00 WeatherPi weewxd[19901]: weewx.UnknownDatabase: Unknown database ''weewx'' Jan 08 08:47:00 WeatherPi weewxd[19901]: CRITICAL __main__: **** manager_dict['database_dict'] = get_database_dict_from_config(config_dict, database) Jan 08 08:47:00 WeatherPi weewxd[19901]: CRITICAL __main__: **** [image: weewx.png] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
