Hi, I was able to update the confi file and change the Debug to 1...which in itself is a huge win as it took me a while to figure out how to even access the file. (permissions have been a bear to learn). I have read a lot in the last 24 hours! That said, I still don't know how to access any additional log information. When I run the status check, it comes back with basically the same info... × weewx.service - WeeWX Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/weewx.service; enabled; preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sun 2025-02-02 11:35:11 EST; 23min ago Duration: 18min 49.054s Docs: https://weewx.com/docs Process: 1261 ExecStart=weewxd /etc/weewx/weewx.conf (code=exited, status=4) Main PID: 1261 (code=exited, status=4) CPU: 873ms
