Re: [weewx-user] Re: Installation/configuration issues (WeeWx on a Raspberry Pi4)
Did you get webpages with the Simulator? Any errors in says log?

RE: [weewx-user] Re: Installation/configuration issues (WeeWx on a Raspberry Pi4)
Thanks Garry I followed those steps with no joy. Then uninstalled and reinstalled. Same result. Seems to me there is a driver issue. The interceptor driver with either wu-client, observer or ecowitt as the device type doesn’t show any results. The weewx.sdb file is being updated so the connection is working. Anyone with any ideas on how to solve this one? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

RE: [weewx-user] Re: Installation/configuration issues (WeeWx on a Raspberry Pi4)
Thanks. I don’t see anything obviously wrong. I would: * Go back to using the Simulator * In weewx.conf, change station_type to Simulator. * Verify that weewx is starting correctly: * sudo /etc/init.d/weewx start * tail -f /var/log/syslog * Fix any errors reported in syslog * Verify that web page are being generated * 2 -5 minutes after starting WeeWX, depending up the driver/device settings, you should see log entries indicating that reports are being generated. * Open /var/www/html/weewx/index.html in a web browser on the same system (so that a web server is not required). * Refresh webpage after 2-5 minutes (or when syslog indicates WeeWX has started up another reporting cycle) to verify the web pages are being updated/regenerated. * After getting webpages reliably generated and updated, change to the desired driver * sudo /etc/init.d/weewx stop * In weewx.conf, change station_type to “some other driver” * sudo /etc/init.d/weewx start * monitor syslog: tail -f /var/log syslog * If web pages do not get generated, there’s a problem with the driver, or more likely, it’s set up. You only need a web server such as Apache and to open ports on your firewall if you want that system to serve pages to the public side of your firewall. If you want another server to serve the pages, you FTP the pages from /var/www/html/weewx to the other server. You can delete everything in /var/www/html/weewx – files there are regenerated every reporting cycle. If you delete everything and they reappear, you know that WeeWX is at least generating and moving some files.

Here is an overview of what im trying to do and what ive done: Ive got a WH6006 Weather Station. It is a cellular system in that it connects to the internet with mobile data. I'm wanting to connect it to a Pi4 running Weewx. Initially i want to be able to monitor the weather using Weewx, but ultimately i need to get the data off the weather station in excel or csv format and save it to OneDrive. From there i'll use Power Query to process it. After a few attempts i had managed to get Weewx running on the Pi with the Simulator (but now that seems to have stopped too??). I have installed the Interceptor driver, but at that time i was still getting Simulator data, despite making the necessary changes to the config file. (station-type = interceptor) I've set up a (temporary) DNS and configured the router/modem. I've set up port forwarding on the router for the Pi. Also added port = 8000 to the config file. The challenge i'm having is i still cant get the console to talk to Weewx. Ive set device_type = observer I stopped and restarted weewx a number of times to effect the changes. I'm a novice with this stuff but got some great help from gelfert back on the wxforum. He's been great. Lastly, i have managed to get the station to upload to WU and retrieve the data with the API. Its works, but not the ideal system. Its fine for a backup. Any help in completing my configuration would be really great. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Installation/configuration issues (WeeWx on a Raspberry Pi4)
I think you should post your weewx.conf, without any passwords. It should provide the information needed to assist you.
