You're missing the "-- install" directive in both of those commands. sudo /home/weewx/bin/wee_extension /home/myideas/weewx-cmon-0.16.tgz should be... sudo /home/weewx/bin/wee_extension --install /home/myideas/weewx-cmon-0.16.tgz Ditto for weewx-forecast-3.2.19.tgz http://www.weewx.com/docs/utilities.htm#wee_extension_utility Cheers Glenn rorpi - read only raspberry pi & various weewx addons https://github.com/glennmckechnie On 5 February 2018 at 02:56, vigilancewx wrote: > Hello I have been using weewx for a few years version 2.6 on a PI and it > works fine (changing in and out of GMT causes the pi to play up but thats > all) no problems with the SD cards etc > However i decided to install the latest version 3.8 on a machine running > Ubuntu 17 > > I have modified my 2.6 quite extensively so doing a clean install and trying > to migrate my mods over if possible > > i am unable to get wee_extension to install i have tried on the forecast > extension and cmon > > i cant remember how to install the extensions from a few years ago and > using wee_extension i get the following errors > > Thanks for any help > > pi@picomp:/home/myideas$ dir > abcweewx.tgz home weewx-forecast-3.2.19.tgz > abweewx.tgz weewx-cmon-0.16.tgz weewx-owfs-0.21.tgz > pi@picomp:/home/myideas$ sudo /home/weewx/bin/wee_extension > /home/myideas/weewx-cmon-0.16.tgz > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/home/weewx/bin/wee_extension", line 83, in > main() > File "/home/weewx/bin/wee_extension", line 62, in main > config_path, config_dict = weecfg.read_config(options.config, _args) > File "/home/weewx/bin/weecfg/__init__.py", line 223, in read_config > config_dict = configobj.ConfigObj(config_path, file_error=True) > File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/configobj.py", line 1229, in > __init__ > self._load(infile, configspec) > File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/configobj.py", line 1318, in _load > raise error > configobj.ConfigObjError: Parsing failed with several errors. > First error at line 1. > pi@picomp:/home/myideas$ sudo /home/weewx/bin/wee_extension > /home/myideas/weewx-forecast-3.2.19.tgz > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/home/weewx/bin/wee_extension", line 83, in > main() > File "/home/weewx/bin/wee_extension", line 62, in main > config_path, config_dict = weecfg.read_config(options.config, _args) > File "/home/weewx/bin/weecfg/__init__.py", line 223, in read_config > config_dict = configobj.ConfigObj(config_path, file_error=True) > File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/configobj.py", line 1229, in > __init__ > self._load(infile, configspec) > File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/configobj.py", line 1318, in _load > raise error > configobj.ConfigObjError: Parsing failed with several errors. > First error at line 3. > pi@picomp:/home/myideas$ > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "weewx-user" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to weewx-user+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

[weewx-user] 2.6 going to 3.8 and wee_extension
Hi, One of the first things wee_extension does is find weewx.conf and read it's contents with configobj (a config file parser). wee_extension has found a config file but configobj is finding errors in the file. Odd that it is finding errors in different places for (you would expect) the same file. I assume you have 3.8.0 running without error? The normal approach is to get weeWX running without error before adding extensions/further customising. A couple of things you can try if weeWX is otherwise running without error: - Check weewx.conf, is there anything obviously wrong in the first few lines. You upgraded from 2.6 but did you do a clean install or an upgrade, assume a clean install if a different machine/OS. If you did a clean 3.8.0 install weewx.conf should be good. You didn't copy weewx.conf from your old system did you? That could cause problems. - Try explicitly specifying weewx.conf when running wee_extension using the --config option. Specify the full path to weewx.conf (take note of what weeWX says in its startup log to ensure you and weeWX agree on where weewx.conf is. If you don't use the --config option wee_extension looks for weewx.conf in the usual places, perhaps it has picked up an old or invalid file that is not your current weewx.cnf, could happen if if multiple installs have occurred on the machine using different install methods. If you have no luck do a wee_debug run (http://weewx.com/docs/utilities.htm#wee_debug_utility) and post the output checking for any sensitive info first, wee_does a good job at removing sensitive info but it's not perfect. There is a chance wee_debug will have the same problem as wee_extension, in which case just post a copy of weewx.conf but you will need to manually remove sensitive info. Finally, what type of 3.8.0 install did you do on the new machine? Gary -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
