If a skin configuration file is missing, the report generator should just skip it and move on. Certainly, it should not terminate weewx. Looking through the v3.5 code, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't keep going. In any case, why not just copy the Rsync directory from the tar file to /home/w

Interesting stuff and surprisingly hard to get done completely My job from 2000-2013 was to develop+support a very custom minimized fedora/centos system that ran totally into ramdisk on a small-memory Intel box, treating it like an embedded system. Reason was that these systems 'never' had

Oops. I found the 'install' command. Does /home/weewx/skins/Rsync/skin.conf exist? How about the skin directory /home/weewx/skins? What are its contents? It looks like something got messed up in your skin subdirectory... -tk On Thu, Jul 28, 2016 at 5:18 AM, Thomas Keffer wrote: > Did you do

NEW_LOOP_PACKET is the data from the hardware - and depending on the hardware may be either for all the sensors or just some - different hardware works in different ways. NEW_ARCHIVE_RECORD will be the average data values for all sensors received during the archive period (often 5 minutes). T

I'm not very into python programming I found NEW_LOOP_PACKET but seems working with all data within an array 'packet'. What I need is to get spare data (temp, wind, etc) before composing the packet...where file I have to look at? Then I will use other python library to send the data via modbus
