[weewx-user] Important release: V5.0.1 !

2024-02-05 Thread Tom Keffer
This is a very important bug fix! If you upgraded from v4.x to v5.0 using a package installer, then tried to install an extension, then tried to uninstall it, you could delete system files! V5.0.1 fixes this, along with some other bugs. See the Upgrade Guide

I don't think it has changed ... why would it ? It's a reasonable approach for how and when to copy an active database. That's independent of the weewx version. Safest way is always to shutdown weewx (best immediately after the last archive records were written), then copy, then restart weewx

You did not say what version of WeeWX you are using, but I suspect that it's V5. If that's the case, wee_extension no longer exists. Use "weectl extension " instead. See *New utilities

Two things: 1. Try upgrading to v5.0.1. It fixes some permission issues for Debian installs. It's remotely possible that's what you're experiencing. 2. Please set debug=1, then restart. Post from the restart. We'll figure this out. -tk On Mon, Feb 5, 2024 at 12:22 PM Neil B wrote: > Hi > >
