Yes, you definitely have a connectivity problem that has nothing to do with WeeWX. There is an outside chance the problem is with your RPi. If you have an extra RPi around, try using it to connect through minicom. If nothing works, a call to Davis is in order. -tk On Fri, Mar 5, 2021 at 5:00 PM

vnc makes no relevant difference. command = ‘screen’ below shows program ‘screen’ has a ‘pi’ user process open on /dev/ttyUSB0 at the moment. not weewxd. probably left over from earlier troubleshooting. kill it with “sudo killall screen”. check if any weewxd’s or screen’s hanging around with “ps

I thought it was installed by default on RPi OS but seems lt it is not - it works on my RPi, I must have installed it manually. Try: $ sudo apt update $ sudo apt install lsof then try running lsof. Gary On Thursday, 25 February 2021 at 14:19:30 UTC+10 monmul wrote: > pi@WeatherPi:~ $ sudo

Make sure you stop weewx first before trying minicom. There cannot be anything else using the port. To see what devices are using a port: *lsof /dev/ttyUSB0* On Tue, Feb 23, 2021 at 9:19 PM monmul wrote: > No change in USB port. > > pi@WeatherPi:~ $ > pi@WeatherPi:~ $ minicom -b 19200 -D

Hi, We need to see the log from when you try starting WeeWX. Restart WeeWX and let it run for an archive period or two, then goto the log and take an extract from when WeeWX was restarted through until the two archive periods have passed. Post the log back here without alteration. It’s
