andy, you should understand a few things about doing things on linux and other unix-like systems:
- the shotgun approach to debugging is analogous to fix-the-problem-by-rebooting-the-system-and-hoping-it-will-magically-work-the-next-time. that's what people do on windows because they don't have access to the internals. on linux you can actually figure out what caused the problem. you don't have to if you don't care to, but at least it is possible. - it is much more effective to do one test, understand what happened, and only then move on to the next one. - posting screenshots is a terribly tedious way to communicate. it is much more effective to post the actual text, that way we can discuss/review specific items. as for the output: it looks like you have a problem in your weewx.conf - the altitude is probably incorrectly specified. it looks like the driver is working properly - you're getting output for the readings, and you're getting output for the records. note that only one process can talk to the station at a time. when you install weewx from deb, weewx is automatically configured to run at system startup. so if you want to run tests that talk to the hardware, you must be sure that weewxd is not already running before you run the tests. if weewxd is running when you run the tests, you will get unreliable and unrepeatable results. m -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
