That appears the be the problem. Using 192.168.255.255 and it found the 
correct address for the station. Now it's updating the database. Should 
take awhile. Thanks

[weewx-user] Re: WS-1001 connection to Raspberry PI for Weewx

[Susan Mackay]

Have you changed any settings on the router? What I'm thinking is that it 
is not letting through the broadcast packets.
If that is the case, then all I can suggest in the short term is to do what 
I suggested in my first post and edit the Python code to simply try to 
connect directly to the IP address.
(I'll add that to the "wishlist' for the next version of the driver, just 
after making sure that it works with Python 3 and the latest WeeWx code! Of 
course that is all after 'getting some time for all this playing'!)

[weewx-user] Re: Porting data from WVIEW

[Andrew Milner]

I don't think you have an alternative, you have something different.

>From wview manual:
*Day history Table (wview-history.sdb)*

*Overview*

This table is generated internally by wview to avoid having to compute the 
daily summary records used for the yearly charts every time wview starts. 
This was not a time concern with the flat WLK files but became more costly 
when we started storing data in SQLite3. The external use or utility of 
this table is limited at best.

*Regeneration*

To regenerate the NOAA database:

--

I think you need to double check with wview, but the manual CLEARLY says 
the wview archive is wview-archive.sdb and that wview-history.sdb is an 
internal database used by wview for the yearly reports.

It looks like I have an alternative:

  Thankfully, WVIEW saved a bunch of .txt files for every logged day 
(almost 4k). Although I know very little about SQL databases, I am pretty 
decent at converting text file formats to CSV files. 

I picked the OLDEST text file, created a script to convert it to a CSV and 
ran it through the wee_import utility. 
SUCCESS! The reports now show data for all months/years since the date of 
the first log in that file (2008), 
All the information between that file and the first record extracted from 
the Davis is blank, but that SHOULD be fixed
once all the other text files are imported. 

It may take a day or so to get all the info into the program, but it looks 
like my prior year's data can be salvaged. 

Thanx to all for your assistance.

Take a look at chapter 7 of the wview users guide (

[weewx-user] Re: Belchertown skin 1.0 released!

[Pat]

Hi Manfred, for clarity users who install the Belchertown skin (and all 
other extensions) should be using the wee_extension method 
. So it's not Belchertown's 
decision where it goes in the config, but rather weewx's internal wee_extension 
utility.

[weewx-user] Re: Can i grab loop data in a shell script

[Robin]

I did think about running the script after weewx updates, but the ease of 
saving the image to the web page folder so it gets uploaded using rsync was 
too appealing.

I am not a programmer and my Linux knowledge is at the 'just enough to 
survive' (most of the time) level.

I have had a look at the wiki and now realise that this is way beyond my 
current skill level.

Thank you, Gary and RobbH for your tips. I have a lot of learning to do 
before I can take this on.

There is NO current *wview-archive.sdb*. I only have one from an old backup

The history from the niculskin is not available in Belchertown. Someone I

try and find it. 

Heatmap is also not available right now. Unsure if/when that'll be added

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Porting data from WVIEW

[Richard Rosa]

Looking through some old backups, it seems that there WAS a* wview-archive* 
file from about five years ago. It would appear that there was a format 
change (at least in the version I was running) around the beginning of 
2015. The two .sdb files that I have that were updated recently (the last 
time I was able to run the program) are '*wview-hilow.sdb*' (a 50mb file) 
and '*wview-history.sdb'* (a 1mb file). 

I should also mention that there is a WVIEW  ..*/img/Archive *directory 
that contains a .txt file for every day that was logged. Not sure if that 
info can be used or not.

Hopefully, someone knows how to import or convert this data. 

Thanx

Richard Rosa

[weewx-user] Re: Acurite Atlas/Access with interceptor and wunderground

[Xant]

The problem of Atlas not sending data to WU might be that All data been 
channeled/DNS hijack to weewx, creating a loop (and similar case happened 
to me, when using DD-WRT DNSmasq). Use the following strategy and have 
weewx to feed WU.

In case of DNS hijack through router (DD-WRT or similar):

Do not use DNSmasq for hijack, but Firewall along with IPtables

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s [AcessIP] -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT 
--to-destination [weewxIP]:80 iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE

[weewx-user] Re: Can i grab loop data in a shell script

[RobbH]

You might take a look at the crt service: 
https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/crt

This writes a text file, realtime.txt every time new loop data is received. 
The current outside temperature is always the third field in the file. 
However, many loop packets may not include temperature data, in which case 
that field contains "NULL". So your script would have to monitor that file 
continuously and assign the current temperature to a variable every time it 
updates.

Alternately, if your archive cycle is five minutes and you're saving a 
webcam image every five minutes, couldn't you set it up so that your script 
runs one minute after weewx updates?

Ok... I may have figured-out as the following:

1) 'rain' sensors in Acurite Atlas as acquired by Interceptor driver

'UV': 0.0, 'rain': None, 'dateTime': 1564448985, 'windDir': 291.0, 'outTemp': 
75.1, 'windSpeed': 3.0, 'windGust': 4.0, 'usUnits': 1, 'windGustDir': 55.0}

That is "dailyrainin", "rainin", "rain", "rain_total". Not exactly clear which 
one is what, but may have info overlap.

2) "rainin" in Interceptor driver

Previous postings mention "rainin" error and not recognized, which was puzzling 
some as "rainin" at Interceptor.py listed as 'IGNORED_LABELS'.

That gave a hint from Developers that "rainin" might be overlap info, and 
should be ignored.

While "rainin" in IGNORED_LABELS section, was still generating error... and the 
reason is the IGNORED_LABELS shows twice in Interceptor.py (one with "rainin", 
the other without "rainin").

IGNORED_LABELS = ['realtime', 'rtfreq', 'action', 'ID', 'PASSWORD', 'dateutc', 
'softwaretype']

IGNORED_LABELS = ['rainin', 'dewptf', 'realtime', 'rtfreq', 'action', 'ID', 
'PASSWORD', 'dateutc', 'updateraw', 'sensor', 'mt', 'id', 'probe', 'check', 
'water']

Once 'rainin' is added to the first IGNORED_LABEL instance, the msg error is 
gone, while still may provide the correct Rain data correlation.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Porting data from WVIEW

[gjr80]

Hmmm, seems your wview database is indeed different. You might need some input 
from Tom or another wview user. I was under the impression the wview database 
contained a table named ‘archive’ that is identical in structure to the archive 
table in the WeeWX database. Many wview users have changed to WeeWX and this is 
the first time I have heard of a wview database that cannot be used directly by 
WeeWX. I note the wview documentation states the wview uses wview-archive.sdb 
whereas you have wview-history.sdb.

Almost the exact procedure followed.

[weewx-user] Re: Amusing interference with wind speed

[Jeff A. D.]

Sorry, you did say it was a Vantage Vue, so I guess a bird would be more 
likely to land on the cups than they would a Vantage Pro station like 
mine.  My mistake.

Realizing how the Vue is set up gives me a better picture of what happened 
and makes it even more amusing. :)

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Porting data from WVIEW

[gjr80]

Ok, so wee_ debug says there is only 54 odd days of data in your archive, 
expect these records are the history downloaded from the logger. So we are not 
going to get any reports using your historical wview data from that database.

Not convinced this a schema issue.

Just to step back a bit, when you copied the wview database did you make a copy 
and rename it weewx.sdb? Was it saved to /var/lib/weewx? If not that is what 
you need to do. If you did do this then stop WeeWX if it is running, move 
/var/lib/weewx/weewx.sdb aside and make a fresh copy of your wview history 
database, rename it weewx.sdb and save it to /var/lib/weewx. Run wee_debug 
again, what does it show under ‘Archive info’?

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Porting data from WVIEW

[Richard Rosa]

Debug file attached. 
Ran :
 
* wee_database --drop-daily  wee_database --rebuild-daily*

Again, removed all generated files.
Waited for reports to be generated. Same issue. No data except what is 
stored in the Davis Vantage Pro.

I'm pretty sure the issue is that the database 'schema' used by the version 
of WVIEW that was running,
is DIFFERENT than the current definition of WEEWX. The imported data 
appears in the file, but it appears to have 
it's own structure (see my previous post with the WVIEW schema display). 
WEEWX doesn't appear to know that these records are present. There is 
probably some SQL commands that will fix this, but I have no idea what they 
would be.

If you want, I can attach the two .sdb files that I have tried. The 
wview-history.sdb file is fairly small (>1mb). The
wview-hilo.sdb file is about 50mb. Donno what the size limit is on file 
postings here.

Thanx

The weewx schema is at 
https://github.com/weewx/weewx/blob/master/bin/schemas/wview.py if you want 
to do a visual comparison.

You'd have to check the schema for both your wview databases I think.   
It's been so many years I don't remember any more what Mark's software 
evolved to.

My thought is you could get there with a dump/hand-edit/restore of your old 
data as the worst case, but I'd have to defer to somebody who has run wview 
in the last few years who has done the process you're trying to 
accomplish.  I just can't remember any more whether I had any touch labor 
when I switched to weewx a long time ago.

[weewx-user] WeeWX on Raspberry Pi

[gjr80]

Hi,

First up did you restart WeeWX after changing weewx.conf. If not try that. If 
so then edit weewx.conf, set debug = 1, save weewx.conf then restart WeeWX. Let 
WeeWX run for at least two archive periods and then post the log from 
restarting WeeWX until the two archive periods elapsed.

[weewx-user] special character support

[gjr80]

Hi,

In /etc/weewx/skins/neowx/skin.conf look for the line:

template = index.html.tmpl

under the [CheetahGenerator], it will probably be something like:

[CheetahGenerator]

[[ToDate]]

[[[xx]]]
template = index.html.tmpl

Is there an ‘encoding =‘ setting immediately below or above under the same 
[[[xx]]] stanza? If not try adding ‘encoding = utf8’, something like:

[CheetahGenerator]

[[ToDate]]

[[[xx]]]
template = index.html.tmpl
encoding = utf8

Save skin.conf and wait for the next report cycle to complete.

[weewx-user] Can i grab loop data in a shell script

[gjr80]

Robin,

There is no practical way for your shell script to access loop data directly, 
best solution I can think of is to write a custom service bound to the 
NEW_LOOP_PACKET event that writes the required data to a text file that you 
then read as you currently do. The service will be very basic, but unlike a 
template (which uses the cheetah template engine to do the hard work) your 
service will need to write the data to a file itself. Fairly straightforward, 
any of the loop based services that write data to a file (eg crt - 
https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/crt) have all the building blocks you need, 
they are just a bit more complex.

[weewx-user] Re: Acurite Atlas/Access with interceptor and wunderground

[Ray Pfaff]

I also have the Access and am using sniff to feed data to weewx.  I think 
some of the rain parameters get initialized the first time you get rain and 
the other errors can be ignored.  Mine works fine other than a _very_ 
annoying problem wherein the Access just decides that it won't send any 
data to WeatherUnderground at all.  This is confirmed by doing a tcpdump 
and seeing nothing coming out of the Access.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Porting data from WVIEW

[gjr80]

Ok, a couple of more things to do/try. First run wee_debug and post the output 
here. Just make sure you check the wee_debug output for any sensitive info such 
as user names, passwords, keys etc before posting; wee_debug should obfuscate 
such info but it’s not perfect. The wee_debug report should tell us the oldest 
and most recent records in the archive.

The other thing is to do a wee_database —drop-daily and then rebuild the daily 
summaries (and delete the reports to force regeneration or run wee_ reports).

[weewx-user] WeeWX on Raspberry Pi

[Caiden]

I'm not really sure where to start, but I've been messing around with WeeWX 
on Raspberry Pi for awhile. I am also using the 3rd party TWI driver with a 
WPS weather station. I have the config file setup properly (or what I 
assume to be correct) with the simulator driver commented out, but when I 
look at http://localhost/weewx (my apache2 server), it still shows that it 
is running the simulator driver and isn't pulling actual data from the WPS 
weather station. There are further issues, but from what I can tell, this 
seems to be the best place to start. If anyone has any ideas, it would be 
very appreciated.

[weewx-user] Can i grab loop data in a shell script

[Robin]

Is it possible to get the current temperature to use in a shell script?

Let me explain what I am doing and what I would like to do.

I have a webcam. I use a shell script every five minutes to: 

   1. grab an image with avconv
   2. add text, including 'current' temperature (from a txt file generated 
   using cheetah generator) and the time.
   3. save the image so that rsync uploads it to my website with the other 
   files.

You can see the result here  

My problem is the txt file is 5 minutes old. There is normally small or no 
difference between 'current' and 5-minute old data. BUT, there are times 
when the difference is significant and I would like to "do better"!

I really am not good at this stuff, I meddle and poke until I get things 
sorted or I break something, normally the latter. So I was hoping that 
somebody could advise me.

Can I use in my script to get loop data so the temperature will be correct 
at the time of the grab?

Thanks, people.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Porting data from WVIEW

If just copying and renaming the archive database then you likely need to 
build/rebuild the daily summaries using wee_database 
(http://weewx.com/docs/utilities.htm#wee_database utility). Once done don't 
forget to delete all NOAA format reports to force generation of the older 
reports.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Porting data from WVIEW

[Richard Rosa]

To be on the safe side, I decided NOT to change the interval (at least for 
now). 

I started WEEWX using the weewxd command (rather than the SYSTEMD service) 
and let it run for about 2 hours.
At the end of the two hours I have reports for the past month and a half of 
data, but no more. 

My suspect is that the WVIEW database file does NOT have the same structure 
as the WEEWX, even though the manual says otherwise. A quick peek using the 
sqlitebrowser on each .sdb file seems to validate this. 

As I said, I am not very knowledgeable about database manipulation.  I 
think there is some magic that needs to be performed on the WVIEW database 
file, but I do not know the correct incantation...


Here is the 'schema' of the *wview-history.sdb* file: 





*qlite3 wview-history.sdb SQLite version 3.28.0 2019-04-16 19:49:53Enter 
".help" for usage hints.sqlite> .schemaCREATE TABLE dayHistory ( date

[weewx-user] special character support

If I want to use special (non-English) characters like čžš, I get the 
following error:

This only happens when I put these characters in the html/php template 
files. The weewx.conf or skin.conf use these characters for parameter 
definition and correctly include them into tags when the html file is being 
generated.

I use standard weewx configuration, no modifications to engine.py etc. I 
checked and the utf-8 is defined in the html templates.

I appreciate suggestions how to make this work.
