Thanks for your response Tom, When it failed yesterday I unplugged the Vantage Vue from the pi and plugged it into an old laptop that had Cumulus on it and it ran fine and reported properly. Today when I got home I plugged the Vantage Vue back into the pi and got the error I had posted. I attempted to clear the buffer onboard the Vantage Vue, plugged it back into the pi and now WeeWX is running and reporting fine. I think I will download and install the latest version on a new sd card.
