If you installed following the Debian instructions <http://weewx.com/docs/debian.htm>, the necessary init script should be installed automatically. Check to make sure it's there: /etc/init.d/weewx.
Otherwise, you can download it from the repository and install in /etc/init.d: sudo wget -O /etc/init.d/weewx https://raw.githubusercontent.com/weewx/weewx/master/util/init.d/weewx.debian -tk On Wed, Nov 16, 2016 at 5:51 AM, Ian Coates <[email protected]> wrote: > i am trying to start weewx automatically and trying to follow the install > instructions. there does not seem to be a util or init folder in my rasp pi > installation on debian. > > the program has installed itself in a etc folder after following teh > install instructions. > > Can anyone suggest how i can get this to auto run after a reboot? > > below are the details i am trying to follow > > > Running as a daemon > > For unattended operations it is best to have weewx run as a daemon, > started automatically when the server is rebooted. > > If you use a packaged install from a DEB or RPM distribution, this is done > automatically.
