Hi Mickael,
Regarding the section, I've already tested it and it works;
but since I'm using a PIP installation with Venv,
I followed that section for the installation because I also want to add
logrotate later.
https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/logging
I don't understand why it says "failed read-only" when I've set
permissions to 777 everywhere, even up to /home/patrick/weewx-data/log.

I use this stanza in weewx.conf for logging:
[Logging]
version = 1
disable_existing_loggers = False
# Root logger
[[root]]
level = INFO
handlers = rotate, #console
# Additional loggers would go in the following section. This is
useful for tailoring logging
# for individual modules.
[[loggers]]
# Definitions of possible logging destinations
[[handlers]]
# Log to a set of rotating files
[[[rotate]]]
level = INFO
formatter = verbose
class = logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler
filename = /home/patrick/weewx-data/log/weewxd.log
maxBytes = 10000000
backupCount = 4
Note: the user you run WeeWX with has to have write access to
/home/patrick/weewx-data/log
I don't know if syslog is even involved then, but if I have understood
correctly what you are trying to achieve, something like this could do
the trick. See
https://weewx.com/docs/5.2/usersguide/monitoring/?h=logging#logging-on-macos
which apparently isn't limited to mac OS.

hello,
I followed the configuration to take log from wiki but I have an

I don't see where is my error of configuration
