Re: [weewx-user] cannot find start time & databases not updating

Research so far is the error isn't down to linux version, I have tried several distros and kernel versions all with same result It is working with the record_generation = software set in weewx.conf, when I get more time I will try to delve into this deeper but for the moment I will mark it up

Weathersnoop and WDisplay may ignore the logger, and just use the LOOP packets. WeeWX can do this too. Just set option 'record_generation' to 'software'. You can find it in section [StdArchive] of weewx.conf. The downside is that it cannot do automatic recovery after power failures, but it will

Re: [weewx-user] cannot find start time & databases not updating

Take a look at this troubleshooting section in the User's Guide and see if it helps. It does not fit your symptoms exactly, but I suspect that's because you're having logger corruption problems before even starting WeeWX up,
